Most or all "gurus" tell their rags to riches stories and claim their proven system or books could help you make $$$. However, you later discover that their methods involve buying more products(backend products) and involve endless steps n confusing procedures . Do people fail because they lack patience and persistancy or is it just a DREAM they have been convinced into believing,joining and marketing………. pls advice

Good question and it provides a good discussion, too.

I was pretty skeptical at first about a lot of the eBooks out there, marketing "guru" stories, etc. There really are some great resources and people that have done well online. I'm lucky to have stuck with it for about 3 years now and am doing just fine.

It seems that you have answered part of your own question– it does take persistance, patience, and practice to be successful online (and in many areas of life). Internet/online marketing, for me, has been a continuous and steep learning curve. If you love to learn constantly and are always curious (staying hungry like Steve Jobs recommended in his Stanford address speech) then you'll do just fine.

Here's one of those goofy eBooks that I actually purchased and have read SEVERAL times. It turned out to be a great online marketing resource and I highly recommend it:

Best wishes to you and I hope you live your dream, whatever it may be.

    I guess two sayings come to mind:

    "If it sounds too good to be true…"

    "There's no free lunch." I guess this doesn't apply as well as the other.

    But I've always been thought to think like this about these…schemes:

    If it's so easy to make millions, why doesn't the person just keep doing it instead of trying to sell crap to you to make money?

    <shrug> Take this for what it's worth. =)

    For my personal opinion, i believe only 5 % will make it. What ever business you venture in that includes internet marketing, they will be always someone drop out, that is the rules of thumb.

    If that so easy to read book and attend course and become millionaires. Then this planet will full of billion of Millionaires. To those 5% who make it, following characteristics that make them a true Millionaires

    1. Passion with what they do
    2. Action
    2. Determination
    3. Persistence

    Hope this information Help.
