The Power Of Focus And How It Can Make Or Break You

The power of focus….
Read this and see if this you…
You get easily excited when first starting out a new project. But a few weeks later when you don’t see the results you expect, you abandon the project and go on to find “the next big thing”, start a new project, and the all-too familiar abandoning situation repeats itself AGAIN.
If this is you, then I’m sorry to be blunt but this is absolute craziness. ![]()
I mean, ask yourself this question “When was the last time you really, truly put conscientious effort into your project for it to be able to yield at least some decent results before you deem your project ‘a failure’?”
You need to be patient when it comes to seeing results. Hey, we’re talking about building a real Internet business here.
Any kind of business, both online or offline, needs time and commitment before you can see any real results.
The key thing is to focus on what you’re doing and not move to another new project before you at least give your current project a fair try.
And by a “fair try” I mean putting consistent hard work every day and giving it some time to yield results. Not simply haphazardly putting in some poor effort and then expecting to be making millions instantly!
When I first got started in IM back in June 2006, I was completely overwhelmed with the amount of information out there about earning money online. Today I would receive information about “the best way to make money online via method X by guru Y”, and the next day I’d receive “the best way to make money online via method A by guru B”, and so on…
It is not uncommon to see conflicting advice - Guru Y says do this; Guru B says do that, etc.
And the BIGGEST LIE you and I have been told is the notorious “Make money online easily and instantly just with a few simple mouse clicks”. ![]()
So we can’t really be blamed can we? I mean, here we are being told that making money online was so easy that our grandmas can do it (sounds familiar eh), and after we’ve tried for a few days (or at most weeks) and when we don’t see any results we give up and move on to “the next big thing”.
If you’re one of these people, please wake up and come to your senses now like I did a few years ago
(you can thank me later..)
If I were to offer you only one solid piece of advice, then that advice would be to focus on what you’re doing and STOP jumping from one business opportunity to the next.
FOCUS on 1 (one) area that you’re good at, work like mad, track and evaluate your performance, and improve it.
Success in your Internet (or offline) business is about making incremental improvements on an ongoing basis. It is not about finding that “magic button” where you can simply press and money will spit out automatically!
It doesn’t work that way and it never will.
I’m not saying that you can’t enter more than one niche or market.
You can.
But before you do that, make sure that you already have an established base for your current market first before moving on to a completely different new market. Make sure that you have spent enough time and effort optimizing your current business first for maximum returns before trying to enter a new market.
You’ve so often heard of the term “rinse and repeat”. This is where “rinse and repeat” will be useful for you - once you’ve conquered your current market and are ready to enter a different new market.
FOCUS IS KEY to your success! ![]()
To summarize, today’s actionable tips for you are:
1. Building a successful Internet business requires consistent hard work, dedication, and time before you can see any real results.
2. STOP jumping from one business opportunity to another. Use the power of FOCUS to concentrate on 1 area that you’re good at, work like mad, track and evaluate your performance, and improve it.
3. Take action now!
Now that you’ve understood the power of FOCUS, the next step is to learn on a STEP-BY-STEP format how to REPLACE YOUR JOB on the Internet. You’ll also receive $488 of real value Internet marketing gifts!

I agree with you on the value of staying focused. I think you really need to make sure your desire to succeed in making money online to match everything else first before you begin to focus.
The hardest part about focusing is even within a niche, there’s so many areas to concentrate on, writing quality articles, seo, ppc, blah blah blah, you just need to focus on one project at a time, set a deadline, learn from it, and move on to the next. Use the learning experience to help build your knowledge for the next project.

I was reading this again for the second time, sorry for commenting again here. I just wanted to say this one specific sentence of yours jumped out at me.
“”" Success in your Internet (or offline) business is about making incremental improvements on an ongoing basis. “”"
I have to agree with you on this. My first project for my website which will be officially “live” in May is to build traffic.
Especially MASSIVE Traffic so I can generate awareness about my site and those who are interested will return. This will allow me to track and analyze my visitor’s data and see where I can improve for June’s traffic.

@Mark: Yes even when you’ve zeroed in on a specific niche, you will still be overwhelmed with the huge amount of tasks you have to wok on. The key is to focus on just a few methods that work for you instead of trying ALL methods.
Good luck on your building traffic to your site. I really hope it goes well
@Susannah: Hey I’m a Gemini as well! And I know what you mean, seriously

Great posting there. Focus does indeed seem like the key ingredient, but this focus must be constantly in your head day and night! I guess it depends just how much you want to succeed.:D
