Here are the top 3 reasons why people don't get the results they're after in their internet marketing business:

Problem 1. Information overload.

Without a doubt, this is the biggest problem when dealing with info online. It's so easy to get caught up in thousands of disorganized tips and tricks that you just end up lost and confused, with no idea what to do. It's a scary problem, because you probably THINK a million ideas would be a good thing... but that's a HUGE mistake. You need clarity, focus, and a simple step-by-step approach.

The solution: Step back from the process, until you see the big picture. Complete immersion and concentration on ONE good strategy at a time + focused action gets results. Nothing else.

Problem 2. Not taking action.

This is a direct result of problem #1. You get so hypnotized by lots of ideas that you get stuck in the planning phase forever. You feel like you're working because you're reading, buying products, spending time working... And one day, you suddenly find that years have gone by with little or no results. This is a painful revelation. Please, don't put yourself through it again.

The solution: WAKE UP today, and realize that you need to ACT now. Just pick ONE action now that will get results, and just DO it until it is done. Celebrate. Repeat. That's the way to get results.

Problem 3. No good map to follow.

Taking a step in the wrong direction moves you further from your goal. You need to know what to do, and in what order to do it, before you act. People who try to reinvent the wheel and find their own way before mastering the basics waste time and money. People who follow bad advice waste time and money. It's better to do what has been proven to work.

The solution: Find a good teacher/guide, and pay what it takes to learn from them right away. There are many good guides available, so just pick someone with a good reputation that appeals to you. Then study and model their approach until you get the results you're after. This is a very wise investment. Always act immediately on what they teach you.

That's it. When you really understand how important these 3 things are, nothing can stop you. And I bet you'll find the process a whole lot more enjoyable.

Simple enough, but it's taken me many years to learn this. The sooner you get it, the better.
