What Do You Really Want?
OK, if you’re looking for information on how to make money online, don ‘t read this post.
DISCLAIMER: I will probably be ranting for the next few paragraphs below
Reading across a popular blackhat IM forum the other day, I came across a thread about how a young man, dude was in his mid to late 20s, who despite having a comfortable life, and making an income solely from the internet, was miserable as hell, and getting little to no joy out of his life.
This brought a few ideas up for me, as I can totally understand where this guy was coming from.
The thing is, when it comes to IM, and in fact when it comes to any kind of income getting activity, in order for it to be fulfilling, you have to get connected with your purpose, and your true values in life.
I have recently discovered something similar to what this fella in the thread was lamenting.
It’s very easy for me to build niche sites, and make money, I have basically “cracked the code” (there isn’t really a code, it’s all common sense
) if you will, and .worked out a replicatable system by which to make basically as much money as you like, and are willing to invest in both time and money to earn. (scaling up)
The thing is, while great, and I absolutely appreciate the knowledge I have, as I understand a large % of the world’s population would kill for the position I am in/setting myself up for financially. If you are not connected to purpose, to what really matters in life, ie, doing things you enjoy, and connecting with yourSelf, other people and Life, then you are going to be unfulfilled.
That’s what the OPs thread was really communicating. He wasn’t depressed for no reason, it’s because he wasn’t connecting to his real desires, and what he really valued!
The truth is, we all value different things in this life. BUT, it’s so important, if you’re reading this far, that you learn this, find out what you really value, what turns your dial, and incorporate it into your life!
Anway… RANT WINDING DOWN
This is where I am at with my business and my life. For me personally, the most fulfillment I have been able to get when it comes to making money online, was by sharing my knowledge with others, and helping them to succeed. Whether it be SEO knowledge, how to build sites that rank, or whatever, helping people makes me feel good about myself, and like I’m making more of a difference than just banking money off the internet…
So… Values are important, connecting to your TRUE desires (not the desires that were programmed into you by society) is really one of the most important things in this life, at least in my humble opinion.
Take care and stay tuned
