Do you ever look at other internet marketers who are successful and want your own efforts to be like theirs? We all do this I'm sure. However, this can cause big problems when it comes to achieving our own individual success.
Instant Success
When we see the success of others it is very easy to believe that what we see today has always been there. That the success or the results that we see have been instant.
When we look at some of the big successful marketers such as Dan Kennedy we see huge success. And we want that for ourselves NOW!
We forget to ask ourselves the question - how long has it taken them to be this successful?
It is the same with all types of success. For example:
Weight Loss - when you hear that someone has lost 4 stones in weight and you are desperately wanting the same, you want to lose that weight fast and be like the person who has already done so.
Immediately you go down the path of looking for quick results.
Learning Guitar - perhaps you want to learn the guitar and you see someone playing and want to play the same. So you start looking to find a quick way of learning the guitar.
Instant Gratification
Today more than ever before we live in a world of instant gratification. The internet is probably to blame!
It provides us with everything we need instantly! It sends a message that whatever we want we can have immediately - at the touch of a button!
We hear of remarkable results that a marketer has achieved and we purchase their product but somehow we don't get the same results as they did!
Stop!
Let's stop for a moment and think about this.
How long has it taken that marketer to perfect their method?
How long have they tested it and optimized it?
How many years experience do they have?
What other experiences have influenced there results?
No one goes to bed at night with a success level of 5% only to wake up the next morning with a level of 100%!
It just doesn't happen like that.
Step By Step
Success happens a little at a time. One step and then another.
Don't let the success of others derail your own step by step effort. Keep focused on your goal and you will get there with time.
The biggest mistake you can make is thinking that there is a short cut to success. There are certainly tips and advice that will help you on your way quicker but don't be fooled into believing it will be instant.
