Try give it a shot and hope.

Try give it a shot and hope that the latest shiny object you are currently involved with actually delivers on their promises like their slick sales page said it would.

“I tried it and it didn’t work”

“I hope this will work”

“I’m going to give it a shot”

These are just a few thoughts from people who join programs and are not really committed.

If this sounds like you (or is you) sorry about that, but you need to hear it from someone who’s been there.

This was me and it was the main reason I was broke, miserable and frustrated with it all.

Most people “try” things or they “give it a shot”, but they never DECIDE they will be successful.

Most people come into this industry with the wrong attitude and want to get rich quick.

There are people who have done it of course, but it’s extremely rare.

Some people you may follow make this look super easy, but what you don’t see is all the time, effort and determination put into the business prior.

I lost my job, bills were piling up and I had no choice but to find another job quick.

Employed once again, but in my job hunt, I found a lot of online marketing opportunities.

I decided to make this “work from home side hustle” work.

So I’m getting up early before work on my laptop trying to learn everything I could.

It became an obsession to just spend money on a problem hoping it was going to work.

After spending dollars I didn’t have and my situation wasn’t getting any better.

I decided to start getting focused and make something work.

I stopped “giving it a shot” and decided whatever I started I was going to finish, no matter what.

If you’re going into anything with “I will try” or “I will give it a shot” attitude, you given yourself an excuse to quit.

If you can’t overcome an obstacle as soon as things get tough, or work shows up, you’ll quit.

This is a business just like any other business or yes even a job.

If you don’t treat it like a business you will make very little money or hobby money at best.

As an employee, when you have a problem, you can usually figure out a solution and move past it.

When you’re in the side hustle mode, remember that the same thing applies here.

As you put in the work you can start to see progress, one step at a time.

This won’t happen overnight, it will require work and sometimes, it won’t be easy.

What I learned from all of this.

It made me more mature.
I learned about structure.
A great deal of discipline.
Learning how to see things through.
It made me a better person.
I learned how to handle adversity.
Forced me out of my comfort zone.
It taught me about sacrifices and best of all…
It made me believe in myself and my abilities.

So stop trying and giving it a shot, just commit to doing it.

No matter how many bumps or obstacles you encounter, figure it out and get back on track.

You will run into these problems and others no matter what you do.

Just relax, you got this.

Just like in everyday life, no matter what happens, you will always handle it, right?

You can make this work when you DECIDE it’s going to work for you.
