Default Re: Blind leading the Blind

My personal experience, and watching people who have tried and failed is they all have one thing in common and I almost never see or read about it. It is focus on your project, I don't mean focus a little while you are at your your computer, but the kind of focus where you have blinders on. You go to bed thinking about your project, you so excited you have trouble sleeping, you wake up and you are thinking about your project. You have a pen and pad by your bed and wake up in the middle of the night and write down an idea. Your friends and family worry about you because you are becoming to obsessed with your new project. You get pissed off if anything takes time away from your project. I mean 100% total and complete concentration on one idea until it is self sustaining.

I see way too many people some are friends who lack the ability to focus on one project, they become distracted by another idea, then another and they end up not doing anything. You know who you are.

As for gurus, you are placing way too much faith in them. Most have never done anything but write about how to get rich on the Internet, and they all say the same old junk. You have at your disposal on this forum some of the best and brightest on the Internet.

Also, stop planning and take some action, NOW. This is a huge problem I see, people order products but fail to take action and then complain about the How to product not working, it's not the product it's the person not working.

Good Luck
