Can Anyone Earn Money Online?
I think the answer to this question comes brings us to the draw backs of using the Internet to create a steady income. Here are the top three on my list:
- Lack of a clear purpose or feeling purposeful.
- Lack of human interaction and community.
- Lack of a vision and adding real meaning.
These are simple barriers to make money online opportunities, but they are powerful and tend to stifle most people....
It doesn't have to be this way, if the Internet can be used by some people to earn a substantial income then its a viable opportunity to make money, right? Are web business ideas a viable way to become successful today? What does it take? Can you capitalize on money making business opportunities online?
What skills does it take to make money online?
I don't think make money online opportunities are skill base, I don't think most of the best self employment ideas are skill based either. While performing a skill is part of rendering quality service, its not the most important thing to earning money as a self employed entrepreneur. There are common characteristics of people who make money online, the same characteristics can be found, I think, in just about any successful business owner. The top traits of a successful entrepreneur are:
- Persistence
- Consistency
- Determination
Three words with three meaning. Probably the most powerful three characteristics of any worthwhile achievement are rooted in the these three traits, think about it. I think choosing the best business to invest in takes a back seat to possessing these traits and I've seen story after story and have some experience myself to back it up. Not sure if you'll find this advice on the SBA website but, there are millions of ways to make money online and off, its not all about the way you make money its more in how you go about doing it, how your being. The top business media tells an obscure story of complexity and precision that just isn't all that apparent in most successful business endeavors, in my opinion, or course.
If you find yourself asking the question: " Whats the best business opportunity to start ", its likely the answer is going to be close to, " The one that causes you to be persistent, consistent and determined to succeed", I think that is the point in a nut shell. Its not about choosing the best business entity, its more about a inspiring idea that will captivate your entrepreneurial spirit over the long term and excite you in the short term from time to time.
I'd say the best business to start, the top small business ideas, the top online business, and the top opportunity to invest in are all the same, and its a question that's been answered accurately with what been written in this blog post. What are your ideas? Do you think relevancy plays a bigger role than I'm letting on? Do you think finding an already thriving market and working to obtain a piece of that market is a more intelligent approach. I'm of the opinion that many of the people that advise on business and entrepreneurship are missing the boat. Looking to corporate executives who use other peoples money and have almost unlimited resource and legacy holdings might not be the smartest, or best pool of knowledge if your looking to create a better life as an entrepreneur. Just a thought.
