We, as Internet marketers, must learn various strategies for getting visitors to our websites and making sales. After all, that's the object of this game, right?

Time after time, you've probably read that writing articles will bring traffic to your site.

Time after time, you've probably heard that doing Joint Ventures with other marketers will make you more profits.

Time after time, you've probably been told that the "money is in the list" so you must build a bigger list.

Time after... well, I think you get my point. You've *repeatedly* learned the tried, true and proven methods used by the top-earners.

But do you *use* what you've learned? Do you *really* take action or do you sit around and say to yourself, "That's a great idea! I'll have to try it!" but then you never quite get around to it?

Uh-huh, that's what I thought. It's too easy to put it off for another day. It's so simple to think up a plan, then never put that plan into effect.

Do you think the six-figure-income earners work that way? No, they act on their ideas and plans. How do you think they *earn* those six figures? Not by sitting around thinking about it, that's for sure.

Maybe you think you'll get lucky someday and things will "just happen." Suddenly lots of money will fall into your lap. Your website will be flooded with buyers, not just browsers. Right?

Wake up and smell the coffee! You have to *make* it happen!

That's right, I'm telling you to get up off of your duff! I'm telling you to implement what you've been taught, use your noggin and come up with a plan. Then put that plan into action because...

...if you do nothing, you'll get the same results - NOTHING!

Catchy little phrase, isn't it? Thanks, I coined it myself. :~) And it's true.

While some who call themselves Internet marketers are spinning their wheels hoping to "strike it rich" someday, those who really want to "make things happen" will find a way.

I, for one, am a go-getter. I've learned that when I really want something from life, I have to set a goal, then find a way to reach that goal. Otherwise, nothing happens. What else could I possibly expect?

If you want more traffic to your website and more profits in your pocket, "just do it!" as Nike would say. But since I like 1980's movies, I prefer to quote Irene Cara in the themesong from Flashdance - "Take your passion and make it happen!"
