Many people want to make money online. The people who succeed at it, and go on to make huge incomes each year, have usually given up several times before they eventually succeeded. Whether you achieve your own monetary goals depends on whether you’re ready, so let’s look at four signs which indicate that you’re not yet ready.

1. You’ve Bought More Than 5 Make-Money-Systems in Five Months

Anyone who wants to make an online income will find themselves joining many mailing lists, and getting many freebies. Most of the products offered, even for free, are valuable. However chances are that you don’t know enough yet to make full use of them.

The next step is to buy products which promise to help you to achieve your goals. However, if you constantly find yourself buying new products and not putting any of the systems which you’ve purchased into operation, you’re just not ready to make money online yet.

2. You Believe That You Can Make Instant Money, Anywhere

The online world is just like the offline world. From a standing start it’s not possible to make money instantly online, unless you win the lottery.

You need background and experience. This is why you shouldn’t get downhearted if you’ve failed at your money making efforts. Each of your attempts has taught you something.

However do realize that the likelihood of you making $10,000 this week from your online efforts if you haven’t even made your first dollar is somewhere between zero and none at all.

3. You Believe Everything Should Be Free

This is a big hurdle in your efforts. You won’t make money online until you realize that you do need to pay for some things. As with every other business, you need a little bit of startup capital. Online businesses tend to be lean, so you won’t need the many thousands of dollars you’d need if you were starting an off-line business, but you do need to spend money.

Once you get over the belief that everything should be free, you’re well on the way to starting to make money online.

4. You Suspect That All the “Make Money Online” Talk Is a Scam

There are many scams online. However it’s a mistake to believe that just because you’re not making any money online no one else is, either. Especially in the Internet marketing area many people are making incomes which far surpass anything they could make at a day job.

Isn’t it about time you stopped TRYING to make money, and actually made some?

here’s how. Stop trying — and do it.

Want to make money online? You’ll find it much easier when you don’t stand in your own way. Here are five reasons it’s not happening.

1. You Don’t Have a Strategy

If teenagers can start and run million dollar online businesses and go to school at the same time, you can make money too, as long as you have a strategy.

“I want to make money online” isn’t a strategy.

“I want to make money affiliate marketing” or “I want to make money writing Web content” or “I want to make money on eBay” is.

2. You Don’t Take Action Every Day

ACTION! needs to be your mantra.

I know several people who’ve been researching making money online for at least a year. They’re searching for the one sure thing which will work for them, preferably with as little effort as possible.

They’ve wasted an entire year, in which they could have taken action, then learned what did and didn’t work, as they continued to take action.

Taking action is vital. Once you find a strategy which may work for you, get started. Just do one thing. Tomorrow, do another thing which you THINK (guess) is what you should do next.

For example, let’s say you choose the affiliate marketing strategy as a way to make money online. Today, pick an affiliate product which resonates with you and which you know something about. Tomorrow, write an advertisement for that product.

You don’t need to know everything to act. Knowledge comes from experience, it doesn’t come from endless hours of research.

3. You Don’t Have a Web Site

Get a Web site. Use it as the hub of your online business.

There’s nothing I can add to this. A Web site is fundamental. By the way, even a Blogger blog is a Web site, so there’s no excuse for not having a site.

4. You Listen to Friends, Relatives and Assorted Know-It-Alls Instead of Yourself

People who are older, younger, smarter, and dumber than you are making money online. In some cases they’re making millions of dollars.

They all got started the same way: by taking action. Here’s what they didn’t do: they didn’t ask for validation.

Listen to yourself, rather than others. Once you hear that little voice within which says: “I could do that” or “That looks easy” pay attention.

Instead of getting on the phone to talk to someone about this discovery of what may work for you, ask yourself what you should DO next.

5. You Lack Confidence (Stubbornness)

Finally, we come to the biggest bugbear of all: fear. All the reasons you’re not making money online already are based on fear.

The end of fear and the rise of confidence comes when you take action in spite of your fear, and have one tiny success. You keep acting, and have another success. Your confidence builds.

Until you have some successes, and even after you do, you need one thing, and that’s a stubborn belief in yourself that you can and will make money online.

Become stubborn, take action, and you will make money online. Nothing and no one will be able to stop you.

How Jena Started Her Online Photography Business

Jena started her online photography business three years ago by selling prints from home and from a couple of Web sites which sold them on commission. She is the winner of several photography prizes, and selling her prints online enables her to sell to a global audience. She’s been so successful at this, that digital photography is now her full time career.

She now sells stock photography on various sites. She says “I can sell photographs which were just cluttering my computer hard drive because I didn’t know what else to do with them.”

Recently she and a couple of friends have set up a home business in which they create T-shirts, aprons, devotes and other small items from their photographs. They sell these items online as well as at local markets on weekends.

With Christmas coming up Jena is designing a range of photographic Christmas cards to sell online. She already has several orders. She is designing a range of Valentine’s Day cards as well.
