Why do Blogger's FAIL?

In order to understand "why do Blogger's FAIL?" we need to understand what success means. According to Merriam-Webster online dictionary, success is defined as:
1 obsolete : outcome, result
2 a : degree or measure of succeeding b : favorable or desired outcome; also : the attainment of wealth, favor, or eminence
3 : one that succeeds

The reality is, we all have a different meaning to what success means to us. plain and simple to fail means:(according to Merriam-Webster)
1 a : to disappoint the expectations or trust of b : to miss performing an expected service or function for
2 : to be deficient in : lack
3 : to leave undone : neglect
4 a : to be unsuccessful in passing b : to grade (as a student) as not passing

As with success, to fail has it's own connotations or implied meaning. the number one reason Blogger's fail, is because they simply give up. The reason some bloggers are successful is just the opposite, they don't give up. They continuously look for new content, new ideas, and new ways to promote their blog.

if you are on the verge of "giving up", then I would recommend asking yourself a few questions to see why you are giving up.
1. Do you lack time, due to some unforeseen complication or event in your life? This may be a good reason to quit, but that is totally up to you.
2. Are you getting sick and tired of writing? If for medical reasons you cannot sit and type at a computer, this may be a good reason to quit.
3. Is your blog not making any money? To be honest, most blogs don't make money unless they are targeting a specific niche. So if your blog is about everything under the sun, then this could be a reason to give up.
4. You are not certain how to communicate properly to your audience? Wow, hmmm...some people lack etiquette and finesse, and may be a reason to quit.

I am sure I could go on and on and give you excuses to quit or fail. This is not my intention. I want to answer your questions and/or concerns, not to mention give you ideas on what to write about, as well as making money with your blog. if you are asking why listen to me, then let me tell you a little about myself. I have been in your shoes, I have tried several money-making ideas, to be honest I failed in most of them, but I didn't give up. After every venture I began learning more and more on what it takes to be successful. So every failure, was really a learning opportunity for me. The biggest learning opportunity for me, was to never give up. I also realized what my talents were and began focusing on using my talents, instead of following some crazy schemed idea. For the past 25 years, I have been involved in many businesses, and have helped many businesses succeed. I have helped a friend go from making $2,000.00 USD/mo. up to $200,000.00/mo. in a little over a year. Another friend, actually a client, double his income in 60 days, let me tell you he was floored! I have been working online for the past 10 years, so I have some experience in helping people exploit their niche.

This is how this blog came to be, because I want to help YOU, be successful in your niche.

So if you feel like you want to throw the towel in, send me an email, and maybe...just maybe, I can help you. blogmarketingtoday@hotmail.com BlogMarketingToday

Blog Marketing Today: Moving Forward

Moving Forward

In life we sometimes get caught up in the day to day activities, like working, shopping, cleaning, eating etc. We get caught up in our little loop and neve really ponder what it takes to have FREEDOM. We see it in the newspapers, magazines, tv, and of course online.

Why is it, that some people seem to have evertything they want, while the majority of us, are just trying to get by?

In a nutshell, it is because that is what they want from their life, whether it is traveling, fancy cars, a nice home, money in the bank. They want these things and move in a direction that takes them there.

The sad truth is, we get caught up in our own little world and are afraid to embrace change...life changes that is, like losing weight, spending more time with the people we care about, going on a elaborate vacation.

The most powerful option we have, yet fail to implement...is setting goals. I am not talking about setting up dr. appointments are going to school. I am talking about setting up "huge" goals, that require you to stretch out of your comfort zone.

The best way to do it, is to make a written plan outlining what it is you want to accomplish and when you want to accomplish it by.

The first step in making this work is to get a pen and paper, you could type it up, but many people are reluctant to print it out when they are done. If you are willing to type it up, make sure you print it out!

With that said, let me show you how to speed the process up, of achieving your goal. Go to the store, librabry, or wherever you feel you will find the information you need. Purchase a magazine on your goal, like a new car, home, or weigh loss. Cut pictures out, and make a collage by gluing them onto a white board. Add text around your images you cut out, and hang your collage in a place where you can see it several times a day.

if your goal is to start your own business, then research online resources like www.blogmarketingtoday.com or www.entrepreneur.com and research their sites for ideas and wisdom to create your own niche business.

The second step, is to go out and test drive that new car, or visit the home of your dreams, or purchase videos of better eating habits. this is a crucial step in order to achieve your goal.

The third step is simply visualizing that you already achieved your goal, for example if you want to lose 30 pounds, don't say "I want to lose thirty pounds"...but rather say "I want to weigh 120 pounds" or whatever your ideal weight is. This is extemely powerful way of attracting ino your life the things you want.

Finally, the bottom line is, to continue this process, and repeat it daily if not a few times a day, until your mind accepts it as being true.

I know some people feel this is "hog-wash", but I guarantee you that this process works! You just need to keep moving forward, and don't get discouraged or let others discourage you.
