We all have dreams and goals that we want to achieve. Many of us want to quit our 9-5 jobs and work freely at home, or maybe work out on the beach with your laptops. I mean, isn’t that why we all strive to push and make money online? But here’s the thing, your dreams and your goals are just that, they’re only dreams and goals; it’s the dream turn reality that we want. Of course, we cannot achieve that if we don’t execute.
It’s funny, just the other day I got some Chinese take-out and they always give fortune cookies. Of course, it must have been fate telling me she’s going to slap me silly because this is what the fortune said:
“Some people never have anything except for ideas. Go do it.”
Now, I would like to think I’m an idea man with a lot of ambition, but it should never stop there. I’ve come up with tons of ideas to make money online, get traffic, come up with new and creative things to separate myself from the herd but if I never execute those ideas and dreams then I’m just like everybody else.
A dreamer…
We all have dreams but unfortunately, not many of us do anything to push ourselves to bring those dreams to our realities. And although, some dreams may be a little out of our reach, most are doable.
Now, if you’re having dreams of swimming in cash like Scrooge McDuck, well, that’s just not logical and you need to stop watching old cartoons. Plus, I tried to swim in money before and believe it or not, it hurts. If you don’t believe me, try diving in a pool full of dollars and coins!
But luckily, most people don’t swim in money. And yes, you can make as much money as you want if you put your mind to it, execute your ideas and lastly, do not procrastinate because more than likely, you’ll never go back to it.
Even if the whole world tells you your ideas and dreams are stupid, don’t let that stop you. And don’t put it off because you shouldn’t care what the rest of the world thinks about it.
For instance, I used to think I was too short to play for the NBA but a guy named Mugsy Bogues just proved me wrong. He’s shorter than most of us (he was only 5’3 when he was starting in the NBA) and he will probably be remembered for that. A man in a land of giants.
But he had a dream, he pushed himself and he proved a lot of people wrong. See, he executed and made his dream his reality.
And of course, we all know Martin Luther King, I don’t even need to explain that.
You know what separates the real online money makers from the wanna-be’s? Well, besides the real money constantly being deposited into their bank account, it’s also the fact that these online money makers spend tons of time executing and working their way to their goals and dreams.
I’ve talked with people like Jonathan Volk, Paul of Uberaffiliate, Jason of Theuniversitykid on instant messenger and all of them are down-to-earth guys. But these are the same guys who are constantly on the internet, constantly working hard and constantly making money online. I mean, Jonathan has a goal bar on his blog on how much he wants to make a month, once he accomplished that, you think he just settled?
Nope. He just raised that bar even more.
See, personally, I’m not that type to set my goals extra high, I set it low. Once I accomplish that goal, I move to the next step and I just continue to cross these goals off my list.
My only problem, I procrastinate. Yes, I have dreams. And yes I work my way to bring those dreams to my reality but my only downfall is I end up doing it very slow because I’m a procrastinator. Lol…
And this post isn’t only for those trying to make money online, this goes for all those people who have dreams but just leave it at that. Honestly, there are only three words that I have to say (and no, it’s not “I love you”) but Nike made it famous…
“Just do it!”







I have a dream that one day - I will top Technorati - ( no dream too big)
I gave up my dream to make a lot of money online some time ago. :p At least for now.. But about my other dreams… I’m working hard to get them. Yep, JUST DO IT!
