The Most Dangerous Obstacle of Making Money Online

By Henry Zeng

I want you to know that this article is just essential to your online marketing career. If you don't overcome this dangerous obstacle, you won't make any real money online.

I've learnt it really the hard way.

Honestly, 90 percent of Internet marketers are doing things that will prevent them from ever achieving their goals:

They have no plans. They love (and fall victim to) products that give them huge promises with little or no efforts. They always hop from one "big opportunity" that can make "a lot of cash" to another. They only care, "can I make money with this?" So today is Adwords, tomorrow is AdSense, and yesterday it was another hot concept (but already forgotten by them).

I think you already got what I mean.

These people are what I call "opportunity seekers".

Opportunity seekers buy lots of products, but seldom use any of them. When the next so-called "easy money method" comes by, they just stop their current practice (which probably works) and end up buying the new one. They always ask you:" What's the easiest way for me to make money right now?"

It's NOT THAT easy to make money on the Internet, buddy.

So DON'T chase everything comes out that looks like it'll make you money.

If you have ever read Stephen Covey's The 7 habits of Highly Effective People, you will know that one of the most important habits is begin with the end in mind.

For your online business, it means to have a detailed plan and a clear vision in your mind.

Just think about what you would like to have for your online business in the near next 2 years.

30 mini sites that makes you a monthly $200 each? That's good. 10 membership sites with a solid residual monthly income of $9000? That's even great. What about building your credibility and having a high response list of 20,000 subscribers that earns you $18,000 every month? That's fabulous!

But not to have a bunch of digital trash in your hard disk. Not ever!

You should just have your vision like this. Having a vision or not distinct opportunity seekers from real Internet entrepreneurs. When you have a clear vision of what you want your business to become, you will be more focused to your business that makes success possible.
