I decided to post a list of famous entrepreneurs on here to show you that anyone can become one and possibly give you guy’s motivation. I mean, making money is just part of it but standing out from the crowd is a whole other ballgame.

Before I get to the famous entrepreneurs, let’s go over a quick definition on what exactly is an entrepreneur?

The definition of entrepreneur is “An innovator of business enterprise who recognizes opportunities to introduce a new product, a new process or an improved organization, and who raises the necessary money, assembles the factors for production and organizes an operation to exploit the opportunity.”

And a female entrepreneur is sometimes known as an entrepreneuse which is the French feminine form of entrepreneur.

Anyways, I just wanted to give you guys some motivation on becoming a entrepreneur, your own boss and show that anyone can be a famous entrepreneur if you put your mind to it. I know we might not all be billionaires like Bill Gates but we can all be on own bosses if we put our minds to it.

Matter of fact, I think a majority of us don’t even realize how much of an entrepreneur we are. But if you have made money on your own before whether it’s selling lemonade on a hot sunny day or coming up with a new way of selling a product, then you are on your way to a famous entrepreneur.

Anyways, I’m sure you’re sick of my blabbing on famous entrepreneur stuff so here’s the list of famous entrepreneurs you may or may not have known and what they’re famous for. (There are plenty of famous entrepreneurs that I’m sure isn’t on this list, feel free add any of you and I’ll give you a backlink to your site)

For quite sometime, this blog has been labeled a MMO (Make Money Online) blog and/or a Blogging Tips blog. I don’t mind either or but I’m actually considering changing the niche slightly. I may consider titling it more of an Entrepreneur blog.

I have been thinking about this for quite sometime now. I don’t want visitors to come here and their first reaction is “oh my god, not another MMO freakin’ blog!” I mean, people have turned the MMO niche into crap that I shouldn’t even be labeled under it anymore. Who wants to be labeled in the same niche as all these fakes or don’t earn a dime online? Or all these people who have no idea what they’re doing to make money online but they still manage to start a MMO blog.

Well, not me.

If you look at all these successful blogs like Tylercruz.com, Theuniversitykid.com, Johncow.com, etc, they’re more of entrepreneur types rather than MMO. I mean, none of them really claim themselves as MMO niche blogs but rather entrepreneurs doing than thang to make money on the internet.

design logos and banners, I make money blogging and I try to find unique ways of making money online. Now, I consider myself an entrepreneur because I am making money online in different ways. I’m not even close with the big boys so I’m not going to act like I am.

Basically, I’m starting to dislike MMO blogs more and more. And I think I have that same feeling like everyone else when I stumble across a MMO blog and the owner of it is clueless and basically a fake. We all see that; bloggers start a MMO blog, read from a more successful MMO blog and then write in their own words basically what someone else said.

A few instances: One blogger I saw wrote an article on how to get RSS Feed subscribers and increase readership… but yet, they had like 24 subscribers. Now, if you can’t follow your own tips on how to increase your RSS Feed subscribers, who in the right mind would follow those tips?

Next instance, I saw a blogger constantly write “how to get tons of traffic… blah, blah, blah” but when I checked their stats, they struggle to get daily visitors. I guess in their eyes, 50-70 visitors daily is getting “tons of traffic.”

Lastly, and this must be the best one of all – the bloggers who write posts like “make money doing this and that.” The funniest part is when you read their monthly income reports, it totals $23.74. Yup, they made tons of money doing this and that. Honestly, I think I know some bums who beg for change who make more than that.

Sorry, I went on a mini-rant, but what I’m trying to say is I’m going to probably change so this blog is labeled more of an entrepreneur blog. I’m not going to change what I write about, how I help people, well, nothings really going to change except for the label of this blog.

I just figured I’d let you guys all know!

I decided that July is going to be my month – yes, my month to get past that monthly income hump that I can’t seem to get past.

If you guys have been around since February or March, I posted my monthly earnings and it’s been pretty consistent for the most part. I’ve been stuck at $1,000/month on average from making money online, but I have gotten extremely lazy and stuck in this stage of procrastination.

Let’s say if I put 110% effort into the things that I do from making money online, I bet I’ll make a lot more than I am now. But I’ve been caught up with random things that gets me tied up, then I’m lazy and most of all, I am one of the biggest procrastinators.

I decided to make it official and write a post so it’s documented and you guys can laugh at me if I don’t make my goal or if I start to procrastinate all over again. Now, I will update my earnings once or twice a week so you guys can see my progress and I will also tell you guys how I made the money in details. I mean, if I can make money online and I tell you guys the same exact way, you should be able to do the very same thing.

I would suggest subscribing to my RSS Feeds because I’m sure a lot of people aren’t able to make it to my blog daily or even weekly.

Now I’m sure anyone can make $3,000/month online with ease, but I set that goal to be three times what I currently make, on average. Plus, I didn’t want to set a goal to be unreachable but I set it high enough that it’s going to take some work. Of course, I was originally going to try to just double my current earnings but I wanted a little bit of a challenge.

Of course, I made a catch. The catch is the fact I put a self-imposed limit on my spending. We can all spend hundreds and thousands of dollars to make money online (spend money to make money) but I’ll give myself $100 to spend on various things of my choice.

I’m hoping to spend less than that but I definitely won’t go over it… unless it’s for a serious issue.

So, wish me luck and I hope you guys get a chance to subscribe to my RSS Feeds to stay up with the progress.

Worst case scenario = I don’t reach my goal, I stay stuck procrastinating, I continue to be lazy, etc.

Best case scenario = I exceed my goal!

If you guys are interested in listening to me on Moneybites podcast, you can listen below on the embedded player.

We got a chance to talk about the make money online niche, contests, Market Leverage and a few other topics you might want to listen to.

Of course, you can always just listen in to hear my goofy ass voice. Hey, I mean, I was a little nervous for being on my first podcast but I’m not normally like that! And if you don’t believe me, you should listen to some of my music recordings.

But feel free to check it out and listen when you have a few minutes.  And if you are ever interested in taking part of a podcast, let me know and we can seat down and chat sometime!

A way to judge success, interestingly enough, could be how many people hate you, or possibly how much spam you’re getting; whether its spam e-mails or spam comments directly from your site. Do you guys believe in this theory? Well, just hear me out, if you don’t.

I’ll start with John Chow, one of the most well-known A-list bloggers in the ‘Make Money Online’ niche. Yes, he has tens of thousands of people reading and following his blog, but then again, it almost feels like he has just as many people hating on him.

Now, why do people hate? Well, in John Chow’s case, there’s a bunch of people who dislike him because he has become successful and he makes tons of money online. To me, that sounds like jealousy and there’s a ton of people like that who loves to hate simply because they can.

I mean, have you ever walked down the street and seen a beautiful woman dressed up in a mini-skirt-type dress and said something on the lines of “Oh my god. Why is she wearing that? What a slut, hoe, high class hooker, etc?” Or maybe you’ve seen a guy with tons of expensive jewelry and make assumptions that they’re a drug dealer or some sort?

Well, if you have, then you’re just adding to their success. I mean, they got your attention, right?

Even people like Maki of Doshdosh.com and Darren of Problogger.net, some of the nicest and friendliest A-listers get hated on. I remember this one time Maki was mentioning he got an anonymous e-mail basically stating his blog is crap, he doesn’t teach anyone anything, it sucks.

Of course, it was anonymous so they didn’t have the guts to reveal who they were.

I think it’s hilarious when people come out with lists like “the most worthless MMO blogs” and things equivalent because the person laughing last as the one getting hated on. They’re probably laughing all the way to the bank…

As far as the spam, I think I have some proof. I have this blog and then I started another MMO blog for an experiment. I’ve been publishing posts on both blogs and at DatMoney, I get, on average, like 20-40 spam comments and a handful of spam e-mails (through my contact form only in reference to this blog) not including the regular ones I get, just like anyone else.

Now, my other MMO blog only gets like 2-3 spam comments and zero spam e-mails. Of course, that blog just isn’t as popular so I wouldn’t expect to get tons of spam.

But if you have lots of people hating on you, then you’re either already successful or you’re well on your way.

I mean, you will always have people who love you but it’s the people who hate on you that tend to show you that you’re making it.

And if you get tons and tons of spam comments and spam e-mails, well, you just need a better spam filter!
