For your hustle to work you have to work your hustle...

A few of the readers of this blog work with me at my day job and have become involved in some hustles themselves (most notably the excellent opportunity to buy stock in companies that will profit when the recovery is complete), however some of the bigger hustles are harder for me to "sell". The one I really love is marketing on the web. The potential is unlimited and the financial investment is very small. The downside is the huge learning curve that can discourage even the most motivated hustler. I've tried to present the SBI program as a easier way to develop a web presence while simultaneously learning almost all you'll ever need to know about marketing on the web. Problem is that even this excellent program can't guarantee success. You'll have to work at it (mostly by reading and thinking) until you learn enough to make the right decisions for your business.

I challenge you to do that work! Grab a copy of The Affiliates Master Course for free. Skim through it and you'll realize that if you study it you'll know more than many of the people making a living on the web today. I guarantee it. Plus-did I mention- it's free! Of course SBI hopes that you'll use your new found knowledge and pick them to build your business with (I did), but you'll be able to make that decision with confidence when the time comes. You'll be ready to hustle money online!

Back To Basics- My plan for 2009

As we have discussed before, we are in a very difficult economy and my hustle activities have been curtailed somewhat. This, I admit, is very disappointing because I am determined to achieve financial independence by the end for 2009. Some of the motivators would say I have purposed or set an intention in motion. These intentions, if strong enough, will take us though so many of the inevitable roadblocks any positive forward motion will face. So as we all make our resolutions and plans for the coming year, I hope that you have a powerful purpose for your life. A desire that will buffer you from these economic headwinds. I have decided to pare away some of my non-core activities and focus on the ones that I enjoy most. Right now it's more important than ever for hustlers like us to focus on enjoying the journey and not sacrifice today for some perfect tomorrow.

Please re-read my post on the tools I use to keep myself motivated if you don't have a strong point of focus. I especially recommend the site ToolsToLife.com -the programs they offer are free and will make a positive impact on your life.

One of the important activities I'm focusing on is Blogging. I really enjoy getting my thoughts out where they can be shared with others. It helps me stay on track. So expect more frequent post this year.....a little feedback would be welcome as well :-)

Looking forward to the best year ever...............
