I’m sure you have heard this before. Just because other people jump off the cliff does not mean that you should follow them. This is like one of the those lessons that you were preached by your parents when you get in trouble in school because you listened to the other kids.

Same goes with your business. If you are an internet marketing junkie I am sure you are on many other marketers’ email list. Products and coaching programs pop out one after the other like the zit of a 16 year-old. Have you ever sat in front of your computer, scrolled up and down the sales page, and asked yourself “should I get this?” Yes, the benefits are so compelling that if you don’t buy it, you are going to miss it, right? Time for some acne control!

There are only a few successful Netreprenuers (woo… almost called him a “guru”) whom I trust and listen to. James Brausch is one and in his post The Right Action Vs. Distraction he talks about taking the right action. Taking action alone is not going to cut it.

What business are you in? Really define your business and break down the processes and create a system for it. Owning all the software and being in all the memberships out there aren not going to make you a dime. Really ask yourself - What business are you in? What are you selling? What are you doing to grow your business? What are you doing to automate your business so you can work less and make more?

I would not be surprised if you do not have an actual business because everyday you spend hours sifting through your emails looking for the “next best thing.” Start by ridding your daily distractions. Un-subscribe from lists that will only waste your time by directing you to read other people’s products and sales letters. Spend time creating your own products and sales letters is what will set you on your way to make you more money online. If you need help, start with this Information Product Creation Course by James D. Brausch where he teaches you step-by-step how to create your own information product in 5 hours or less. I know this works because I have gone through his course.
