Sometimes it seems like identifying why some businesses

succeed while others fail is impossible. After all, if

you could readily identify why businesses end up in one

category or the other, then it would also seem to be

fairly simple to decide the fate of your business. The

fact that many businesses - online and off-line - fail

would suggest it's not so easy to figure out.



This is something I have discussed at length with a

number of very successful people over the last few

months! It's also something I have actively studied as

I constantly interact with people every day. At some

point, the things that separate the successes from the

failures became glaringly obvious. What became obvious

is that you, the individual, decides whether or not you

are going to be successful. Then you implement that

decision.



As strange as it may sound to you, we decide how

successful we are willing to be. History is full of

examples of people who decided they were going to be

big successes and how they made this happen. Most of

the examples that I can think of were people who

identified people who could help them achieve their

dreams. They then attached themselves to these people.

Alexander Graham Bell's assistant was such a person.

Napoleon Hill was such a person... he used Dale Carnegie

to make him a big success. Most of the online "gurus"

that I know also did the same thing. They studied,

modeled, and became understudies of those already

successful.



Before you can become a huge business success you

have to make that critical decision to do so. Once

you have decided (emotionally as well as intellectually)

that you will succeed, then you begin to make it

happen. It's very important that you make that decision

at the emotional as well as the intellectual level. If

it's not an emotional decision to make it happen, you

will give up too easily when the going get rough. You

will give up too easily when the inevitable obstacles

appear in your patch.



One of the big fallacies spread online is that it's

easy to be a big online success. From those I talk to

every day, and based on my own experience, I think

nothing could be farther from the truth. Most of those

making six-figure incomes put in many very long days.

I have personally worked many 18-hour days as I

struggled to complete a project. I have only recently

reached the point where I don't feel compelled to do

this. So don't let anyone tell you that it's easy,

but do commit that you are going to make it happen.



As further evidence that it's not easy, consider that

if it were, then everybody would be doing it. Why

would the person struggling in a fast-food restaurant,

or slaving at a factory job, keep doing it if he could

easily make his fortune online. Thousand of people

that he knew would discover how easy it was online,

and this would attract that factory worker. The fact

that millions continue in the 9 to 5 off-line job is

evidence that this hasn't occurred.



However, there are some people who are making

hundreds of thousands .... and some millions.... of

dollars online. So obviously, it is possible. How

did those who are doing well online do it? Some were

lucky - timing is their secret. They stumbled upon

a trend at just the right time and often were the

first ones to present it to the market. Others went

through a lot of trial and error until they hit

upon a formula that worked. And the others all learned

from someone willing to take them under their wing

and teach them.



Of the above three categories, I fall into the later.

I decided I did not like the hand that life had dealt

me, and I decided to make a change. Then I searched

until I found someone I KNEW was "walking the walk."

Finally, I decided, much as Mr. Edison's assistant

did, that I was going to make this person... actually

these people, teach me the ropes. Part of that

decision was deciding that I would not take no for

an answer... as I broke into that inner circle. That's

the decision you now need to make.



Finding someone who has discovered what works

and how to really do it is the easiest and probably

quickest way to succeed online. It's also the

cheapest way. Many people use the trial and error

method, experimenting and learning what works

on their own. The problem with that is that by

the time they start to figure it out, their

competitors have often figured it out first. This

makes their new knowledge much less valuable since

it is now less rare.... many of your competitors

now have this old knowledge.



Those lucky enough to stumble upon something that

makes them an online success, really had no

control over what happened to them. Fate just

smiled upon them. You probably cannot afford to

wait and hope this happens to you.



So now you are left with one choice - decided that

you are going to allow yourself to succeed. Then

locate someone who knows what you need to know and

get them to teach you. Decide to do whatever it

takes, and commit not to give up or take no for an

answer. Once you've decided.... really decided

to succeed, nature .... God... makes it happen.

The whole key is for you to make that one decision

and then help it to happen. Have you made that

decision yet?
