We agree that it is much more attractive to take the smooth road; the path that offers the least inconvenience to what appears to be peace of mind. But we assert that the way of self improvement will never be that path. Your business and personal life will improve more by traveling the harder road. It will be hard in the beginning, just like setting up an online business. We all know that most of the work is done in the beginning. Similar to the reward of passive income once the hard work is done, self improvement has its own type of passive income. That form of income can reward us with currencies such as peace of mind and a sense of contentment. Here are a couple things for you to think about and see if they apply to you.
Self improvement is a tool forgotten about by most people and left dormant. You probably know that rarely a person works earnestly and sincerely to get over personal problems. The curious aspect of some issues is they will become a life-long endeavor due to the nature of the problem. Due to this work it can reveal an extremely useful power that most people do not have. Scared, insecure, low self esteem, poor self image and not much confidence are just some things that affect people. We do not say these things to mock them. Overcoming these issues is very important as it can set people way ahead of others.
Fear of failure (and fear that the work you put into something won't be enough) is totally normal. There have been studies done with experienced combat soldiers that show there is even fear for them. The main difference is that they are given tools to deal with their fears. It boils down to focus and finding the discipline to use that focus on the things that are important. The usual thing that happens is that the people who aren't that experienced with online marketing allow their fear of failure to win. They wind up not taking action because not taking action is much simpler than facing their fears. Try to remind yourself, when you start to feel overwhelmed with the fear that mistakes get made all of the time and even the most successful business professionals have goals they haven't met. You need to figure out how to always be moving forward and trying new things.
As teenagers everybody learned about being rejected, which was crushing for a lot of us. Rejection has to be faced but it is hard too, some people have to face it everyday, such as a business person. It mostly depends on what business you are in. However, a low amount of sales compared to site visits is also rejection. Rejection plays a large part of business life so you need to take it. You simply cannot allow it to have such an affect on you that it interferes with your business. Rejection is never personal, it is just a part of business so remember to ignore it.
Understanding your feelings about decisions you make can be one of the most difficult parts of learning how to be successful in overcoming a disaster. Because most people are on their own in online marketing they can find it overwhelming to make decisions. You will be making decisions daily, so learn to trust your self and what you do. Sometimes you will make the wrong decision, but just accept it and learn to roll with it when that happens. You will recover, even if you have to start all over again you will recover. As your comfort level rises over time you will gain more confidence.
The creation of absurd expectations is one of the most common mistakes made by people who are new to marketing on the Internet. The reason for this could be because they have read too much into the results and experiences of other people. It's also possible that they've started to believe the hype that gets spread so readily online. Whatever the reason, they usually set themselves up to fail because they can't reach the goals they set for themselves. The solution here is to aim for an amount that you've already brought in and then raise it little by little. You don't have to worry about meeting your goal because you've met it before but the "little extra" can be great added incentive to work harder.
Very often we find ourselves subjected to something we don't completely understand and it can cause an emotional reaction. It can be really embarrassing to send off a nasty email to someone only to find out that you were totally in the wrong. It happens quite often and we are guilty of doing it too.
But, fortunately we are happy to report that we do make an effort to learn. IHowever, during this time you could lose customers, potential partners, clients and so on. Acquire the habit of getting all the facts needed and available before making the decision to send off any appropriate emails. Understand what you are doing, why you are doing it and the possible consequences of your action.
