How to Create Success

This is quite simply the most powerful post I’ve ever read.
It’s Brian Clark’s own story which talks about the circumstances behind how he came to set up Copyblogger.  If you’re not doing what you really want to do, I seriously recommend you read this post – it will be a wake up call, I promise!

“The most striking figure in the whole report is that private sector payrolls shrank by 101,000 last month compared to a modest 26,000 drop in January,” said Paul Ashworth at Capital Economics, “a decline of that magnitude screams recession”. (Quote taken from BBC News).
More bad news this weekend on the US economy and, meanwhile, [...]

A lot of the news this last weekend was about the recession. Whether it’s coming or whether it’s already here.
George W Bush doesn’t believe one’s coming, while John Williams believes a Great Depression is coming. Others think we’re already in recession and still others are saying it will be 2011 before we see [...]

A while back I wrote a post about staying motivated when you seem to be failing.
That was an important post for me personally because I had gone through the roller coaster of emotions that we all do when starting out on a new venture, and I’d nearly walked away from it.
Thankfully I didn’t. But [...]

Are You Ready For This?

It’s pretty clear, whichever way you look at it now, that we’re in for a recession.  The only discussion is about the severity and length of it.
The cause goes back to the ultra low interest rates of the early 2000’s plus the trend of re-packaging loans and moving them off the balance sheet.  In among [...]

For MLM’ers, or people in network marketing companies, receiving the supposedly motivational emails and call previews about how much success people are having can be more of a turn off than a turn on. I know – they turned me off. They made me feel inadequate, frustrated and angry.
So how did I deal [...]

Just Do It..!

by Martin on 23 November, 2007

in How to Create Success

How many times have you listened to people bemoaning their lack of good fortune..? All those stories about how they were dumped on by someone else – their boss, their colleague, their up-lines or whoever..?I don’t even like to listen to those people because, as Zig Ziglar says: “You wouldn’t let anyone dump garbage [...]

I watched an interview with Donald Trump the other day. When he was asked what he thought were the key strengths that led to his success, his answer was ‘persistence and focus’.
I wasn’t surprised at his answer, but it was nice to hear it straight from the horse’s mouth.
This goes back to my post [...]

Recognise Reality…

by Martin on 7 November, 2007

in How to Create Success

Why is it that 90% (or whatever figure you’ve seen most recently) of people who start a business online fail..?
I know there are many reasons for this, but one of them has to do with expectations.
The newcomer doing their research in preparation for starting their online business is swamped by emails, websites and 101 other [...]

Why You’ll Be Successful…

by Martin on 13 August, 2007

in How to Create Success

During one of the first training sessions I had after investing in the Global Abundance Program I was told: Know your ‘Why’. If you want to succeed, know your ‘Why’.
When I first heard that I thought they meant ‘Y’. And I had NO clue what they meant!
What they were talking about, though, is [...]

Think Your Way to Success

by Martin on 6 August, 2007

in How to Create Success

In this business, as in most things, attitude makes the difference between success and failure.
Within the definition of attitude I’m including a positive mindset, a winning mindset, a can-do mindset and a never give up mindset.
I’ve long been a fan of Zig Ziglar. I don’t even remember how I first found him, but I [...]
