One thing I’ve learned in my short stint in the network marketing world is that there are no quick paths to wealth. Believe me, I wish I could just type a few keystrokes and watch the dollars roll in.
Perhaps it’s due to our 24-hour, Internet- and cable TV-induced lifestyles that we always want instant gratification and reward. We don’t have the patience to nurture a process. Oh, there are still some folks out there claiming you can have incredible success, wealth, the nice home, and a hot babe (or hunk) quickly and effortlessly. Rational online marketers know that is not true. Unless you win the lottery, you have to work for that big paycheck.
Renowned author, speaker, coach and entrepreneur Dan Kennedy puts it so well in one of his blog columns,
“Part of the process is getting through of a lot of information in a hurry but also continuously. For nearly 25 years, I read a book a day plus newspapers, trade journals, newsletters, visited the public library weekly; took on a needed skill and so thoroughly and intensely studied it as to become a world class expert.”
