So, you're now an Internet or Affiliate marketer, or you're thinking about becoming one. Take a few minutes to think about why you want to do this... and why you think you're ready. What do I mean? Well, of course I know you just want to make money. But there might be easier ways... you decide.

But I want you to dig down a little deeper; because these reasons directly relate to your ability to succeed or fail. I'll explain in a minute. Let's take a look at some reasons a person may start Internet and Affiliate marketing. There are 3 general categories.

1. You're not making enough money on Your present day job, (what I like to call, your 'Time Trader for Money Job') for the basic, necessary and desirable things in life—such as; Pay the bills, take that vacation, or extra vacation each year, buy a new car or house, secure your retirement and maybe schooling for your kids. etc. etc.

2. You don't have a job—r don't want one. Maybe you got the rug pulled out from under you being pink-slipped and the thought of job hunting and resume building is enough to make you weep like a child. You'd like an alternative way to make a living.

3. You want more then just the creature comforts of of life. You want Mo' money, Mo' money, Mo' money... Fancy cars, big house, Rolex watch, and every other over-the-top luxury you can think of... YOU...wanna be rich!

Depending on which one of the above is you, may cause you to approach Internet Marketing form a different mindset. Some approaches art healthy and productive while others can be 'A Fools Paradise' - : Bliss based on illusion, ignorance, or misunderstanding. Let me explain:

The first two categories might cause the newcomer to enter into this field with a serious, mature attitude giving them a fair chance, yes, a fair chance at success. (I'll explain) The last category will cause the newbie to this field ultimate failure because their head is up in the clouds. (Subjects for future posts) But for now....
