This is

There are three main difficulties facing anyone who is aiming to earn a living from internet marketing: isolation and lack of support, constant bombardment with new products and opportunities and the temptation to hitch their wagon to every new star on the internet. How then, is it even possible to become successful with internet marketing?

Self-Discipline

Online or offline, if you want to be successful in your own business, you must be self disciplined. You have to create your own workable routine because there are no strong external influences telling you when to start work and evaluating your productivity. It's easy to procrastinate when you are working at home. Talking on the phone, coffee with a friend or even a favorite television show can all keep you from getting down to the business of making money.

You need to be proactive, organized and determined to succeed. How you spend your time is entirely up to you. Do you have the self discipline to give your business the time and energy it requires if you are to succeed?

Emails can also be significant time wasters. Do you have the self discipline to organize your email reading and responses to a specific time frame? Do you need to opt out of mailing lists that are causing your inbox to fill with unnecessary emails?

This is not to say you can't sign up for emails, but limit your subscriptions to only a few sources that provide information that can genuinely help you. Easier still, you can subscribe to their RSS feeds.

You don't just need self discipline to regularly do the things necessary for success, you also need self discipline to refrain from doing things. In particular, it may be very tempting to buy products that promise great profits or ways to make your life easier. It is easy for money to go out than is coming in. If the product will not directly benefit an aspect of your business that you have decided to improve or build, then (at least for now) don't spend the money.

However, products that reduce the amount of work you would normally do, streamline your operation and perhaps even assist with outsourcing or delegating of work so you can spend more time earning income, may well be worth considering.

A training product that focuses on an area that you do not currently need, should be ignored. There may be a time for it in the future, but not at the moment.

Stay on Focus

To be successful in internet marketing, you need to stay focused. The internet provides a volatile online work environment that makes it easy to get distracted and caught up in each new opportunity that comes your way. To avoid this mistake, you need to have a business plan and stick to it.

However, you need to be flexible. If your plan is not working the way you thought it would be willing to make necessary adjustments to get the results you actually want. Don't change your plan just because you feel like a change, though.

You certainly need to be passionate about your vision and goals, however times of boredom should not be mistaken for signs you need to change a business plan. Persistence pays off and sometimes you have to persist through boredom. If you need to, take some time off and rekindle your passion and excitement for your business. Only change a business plan if it is not working.

Long term success comes from focusing on a single business plan, adjusting when necessary but overall moving forward and achieving established goals. Chopping and changing leads to a pattern of failure.

By taking a self disciplined and focused approach to your internet marketing business, you will give yourself the best opportunity of achieving long term success.
