Can You Make Money Online?

To so many people that question is a fairly tough one as at the moment there are an awful lot of people online who are not making money online. In fact it is true to say that there are a great many who cannot even earn enough to cover their daily bills. Let alone give them a lifestyle that many dream of. So not only is it difficult for them, it makes it extremely difficult for their families as well. Working at the computer for many hours at a stretch is not an easy task especially when there is a whole world outside and it is passing you by.

For those who are thinking that they will never ever make enough money online to even cover their bills let alone leave their day job, (if they have not left it already!), it may seem like a daunting task indeed. Well I for one can testify that it can be a long hard struggle especially if you have to learn everything and do not have the means to either enlist the help of friends or outsource their work. So the question is can you make money online?

Yes you can but it is not easy by any means despite what all the gurus tell you! They will tell you that you can earn instant riches overnight and sometimes that may appear to be possible.
Usually however, it is not possible, to become rich overnight.

Sometimes it can take months or even years and in extreme cases maybe never! As a job it appears to be fantastic when you first start as you are usually all fired up and raring to go and you are enthusiastic with every product or service that comes along and with everything that you do to get started.

Also about 98% of us online usually try to re-invent the wheel or look for something new to do because we get carried away by the sheer volume of information, products and services out there. That is why most of us try to find something new and out of the ordinary and then by doing this you are actually not doing yourself any favors because of the time and energy that you waste by trying to be different or even original!

It took me a very long time to actually learn to go with the flow. In other words when you start you do not need to re-invent wheels, products or services as nearly everything that is required, wanted or needed is out there if we just learn to look for it.

Same question? So can you make money online? Yes you can but you have to do the groundwork and gather information and then you have to act on the information that you have found whilst doing the groundwork. This means that you have to decide what it is you want to do online and then be focused enough to do it.

When you can do that then you need to see what other people are doing and get ideas or learn from what they are doing. Do not copy or rip anything off but see if there is anything out there that you would like to do then see if it can either be improved or enhanced to make it better than what it is at the moment.

This does not matter whether it is a product or a service as this is entirely up to you. Leave re-inventing the wheel until you have made your money and can sit back and relax a bit. Once you have done the groundwork or research as it is commonly called you then need to be aware of what you need to get things started and then you need to be focused enough to make sure that you stay on track. You can ask anyone who is anyone and they will tell you that you must stay focused and work at it.

When you do that you will start to make money, maybe slowly at first but gradually it will come. The thing that you must not do is give up even when all around you people are saying that it cannot be done! Do not give up.
