Are You Procrastinating About Creating a Better Future for Yourself?
I’ve invested quite a bit of money over the past few years on training courses and online premium content – over $10,000 actually…
So what have I learned and achieved from this investment in other people’s experience (OPE)?
A lot more than $10,000 to be sure! Why?
Because, I took action in each and every one of these courses and training programs! If there was a challenge put to the group, then I did everything I could to beat that challenge.
I made it a point to post frequently within the forums for these products so people could see how I was succeeding with the program and to motivate others to take action.
In one group I became a mentor/motivator for two other members who weren’t getting the same results I was, and in another course I succeeded in achieving a specific goal which generated a 110% refund of my original investment!
I’m currently trying to win another contest related to yet another product I purchased due to the dramatic results I’ve experienced since purchasing that product…we’ll see how I go…
Not long ago I wrote a post about how a $497 product changed my life, and it certainly did, as the training Yaro provided was and is awesome, and that course certainly got me started on the right track with promoting my blog and provided a better understanding of SEO and blogging.
So what does any of this have to do with procrastination in your life?
While watching the webinar related to the most recent product I’ve invested in – which combines training, software and pre-packaged niche product sites, the questions was asked whether all the members would be receiving the free bonus content, and the answer was yes.
The follow up question was, well then won’t there be a glut of that particular product as everyone will be chasing after the same niche.
The answer was blunt and concise – procrastination – 99% of the people who buy this product won’t complete the process required to go live with a real product-selling site.
This is not the first time I’ve heard honest and up front gurus telling the audience not to spend their money if they’re not going to get off their ass and do something, because in virtually any system related to making money online, there are actions which must be taken to achieve success.
If you don’t take the required actions, then no amount of products or systems will ever create any value…
So why do 99% of people buy things which could change their lives only to do nothing with it? Why do we procrastinate?
Honestly, I can’t answer that question. I’ve always been a “doer” and a finisher of projects, or at least getting a project to a respectable level of achievement.
What is it that keeps most people from stepping out of their comfort zone and actually making the investment of time to change their lives?
TV….
I reckon television is the biggest wrecker of fortunes on the planet!
If you haven’t seen the Clay Shirky video post, then do check it out…Americans spend 200 Billion hours A YEAR watching television! Now lot’s a lot of fortunes which could be made…
So if you’ve purchased a $497 membership site or a $27 e-book, then turn off the TV and go invest some time in creating the future you want for yourself.
Don’t let procrastination keep you from the success you deserve!
