You are definitely right when you say you have to take action. I have got in to too many systems and not done anything about it. I have just realized that sitting on my lazy ass will achieve nothing!! I know I have it in me to get this up and running, I just feel I get distracted too much by the next big thing. As soon as I have something up and running I will let you have a look and you can tell me what you think. Cheers once again Darren Thanks for the great feedback and words of wisdom.

I'm earning quite a bit more than I'm spending now but it was touch and go there for a while :-) I'm lucky because I can leverage technical skills I built up in my everyday profession and this has helped enormously. But it won't be enough long term so I've been studying hard, experimenting with various methods and aspects of Internet marketing and trying to settle on a model that I'm comfortable with. I haven't laid out all the details on this blog yet because I want to point to live and kicking examples rather than half finished, partially executed stuff. But I'll give out all that info in the near future. Meanwhile, biggest lessons that apply to me so far: 1. Whenever you spend money - take action! Put whatever it is you've bought into operation. I've done this now in all bar a couple of cases where I really hated the product and couldn't bring myself to use it. 2. No matter how great the product sounds, there will be something better coming along next month! Except maybe in the case of Video Boss which might be a one-off it's that good. 3. Don't play the newbie for too long and never underestimate yourself. Believe me, there are plenty of voices in this industry that are big on volume but short on knowledge in some key areas. On technology topics, for example, I've heard some dire garbage coming from self-proclaimed gurus - stuff that would get you sacked in a commercial I.T. environment. Be honest about and confident in your own capabilities and don't play your knowledge down just because somebody who made a ton of cash when this game was 10 times easier says something different. 4. Don't believe the hype, there are no short-cuts and this is a tough game if you want to build something sustainable. Business is business after all. Struggling to succeed doesn't mean you are inadequate in comparison to someone who has made a quick killing. It just means you don't yet know about the tricks they used and the resources they drew on to do it. 5. The best course you can subscribe to is free. It's the lessons you learn from taking action for yourself. 6. Be open and honest about everything, especially towards people on your list. One lie can kill a hundred truths. Best of luck buddy and keep plugging away. By the end of the year let's check back on this thread and compare our considerable successes, eh? Danny Hi Darren, thanks for the feedback. I’m earning quite a bit more than I’m spending now but it was touch and go there for a while :-)

I’m lucky because I can leverage technical skills I built up in my everyday profession and this has helped enormously. But it won’t be enough long term so I’ve been studying hard, experimenting with various methods and aspects of Internet marketing and trying to settle on a model that I’m comfortable with.
