There are many reasons people begin an online home based business with the most obvious one being to achieve financial independence and to be able to quit their full time job and work from home. However, there are many other motivators that aspiring Internet marketers use that makes them go the extra mile to help achieve the success their looking for online.
Many of the more experienced Internet entrepreneurs will tell you that in order to accomplish your goals on the web you need a compelling reason “why” you’re doing what you’re doing. Before you begin your Internet journey you should ask yourself what’s your most convincing motive for getting to where you want to be with your online business career.
With this in mind here are 5 of the most persuasive arguments people have for succeeding on the Internet:
1. The current economic situation, not only in North America but world wide, has people nervous about their financial future. Unemployment rates and growing worries about companies cutting back in order to help solidify their bottom line are major concerns for the working person these days. For this reason, more than ever, people are looking for alternate sources of income to help secure their family’s fiscal future and more than ever they’re looking to the Internet for this help.
2. When you tell people what you’re doing and that you’ve started an online home business the response you receive most often is generally a negative one. Friends and sometimes family members often say it will never work and you’re only wasting your time and money.
A great way to turn this negativity into a positive is to use these pessimistic reactions as motivation to prove them wrong. Sometimes people try to destroy other individual’s hopes and dreams just to feel better about their own lives or to try to keep them in their place. However when someone tells me I can’t do something I want to do then this only serves to provoke me into working harder so I can prove them wrong.
3. We’ve all experienced in our lives, at one time or another, a set back or a failure of some kind which may have put us at a financial disadvantage. When we see a good friend or a loved one going through the same monetary hardship as we’ve experienced we are often motivated to do well so we can help that person out of their predicament and help them down the road to economic recovery.
I’m a firm believer in “what goes around comes around” and when you help someone else in some way I believe you’ll be rewarded unexpectedly sometime in the future. So try to help people any way you can at every opportunity because you will reap the benefits of having done so in the near future.
4. My main motivation for succeeding online is so I can give my wife everything she deserves in life. So she will never have another financial worry or have to be concerned with working 40 hours a week to help pay the bills. We all have people we love and care about in our lives and making them happy by succeeding online with our home businesses or by prospering in any other walk of life should inspire us to accomplish our goals.
5. Finally, being able to support all of your favorite charities in a way you’ve never been able to before your new found wealth can act as a motivator for some people. The thought of possessing the ability to be able to write a check for, what was previously, an outrageous amount of money anytime you want for some underprivileged organization or group may encourage people to strive harder to reach their objectives.
Whatever your reason why happens to be, be sure to remind yourself of it on a daily basis as you continue your trek toward financial freedom and economic independence online.
