This is not a New Year resolution for 2017 but my final attempt to prove that it is possible for me to create a successful Internet based business has begun.

I have once again cleared out a pile of junk and shiny objects from my life and focused on 3 methods which I will investigate and put into action over the course of the next 12 months.

They all have affiliate marketing at their core but in different spheres and using different platforms. My hope is that I can find a way to link them all together and get the best outcome of. I have clear proof that other people have made all 3 methods work, indeed even I have had success before with 1 of them so at least I know that it is possible.

What I don’t know is whether I have the application, patience and drive to do it myself. That is what I am about to discover.

Here goes!

Hi There,

Good to be back after a longer than anticipated break due to home improvements and various Military issues. With 3 family members in the Forces these are things you have to deal with. With deployments in Afghanistan, Falkland Islands and Kosovo it was always going to be a busy and worrying time. Thankfully things are settling down a bit now and with the various household projects nearing completion it is time to focus on my Internet adventure again.

Nothing else to report currently but there soon will be.

All the best,

Gordon

Hello,

Confession time.

I have allowed myself to get sidetracked and lost a little focus. As I have said I have been struggling for nearly a month now with getting my first project completed and successfully set up. Nothing has been going right.

As a result I have been attracted by too many bright shiny objects landing in my inbox 🙁

Although I take full responsibility for losing focus it is a shame that so many marketers sell you a course which claims to show you how to be successful by starting out properly, taking your time and doing it right, then bombard you with other offers which either claim to make it easier or quicker to achieve that same success.

I realise that their email lists are probably huge but you would have thought that they could create a list of newbies who were left alone for a while to get on with the training they already have to put in place.

If, like me, you have been struggling day by day to prepare the correct foundations for a long term business the last thing you want is distraction on a weekly basis which takes you away from what you are trying to achieve.

I have allowed myself to get distracted by this and must learn to be more wary in the future.

Confession over 🙂

On the bright side I have finished my free gift project and successfully set up the opt in etc to allow people to claim it.

Onwards and upwards now with my first actual money earning project.

Take care,

Gordon
