Really encouraging post. You can’t half ass things when you’re trying to succeed online. There are too many people giving it their all who want it really badly for you to gain anything with a lame attempt.

Go Steve!

I love this post, and the examples help to put things in perspective… How do you find the time to juggle so many things you have going on at once in your life – you must be one super busy guy!

I stumbled onto this article via a Twitter RT… rarely do I get through a full article like this without losing interest. But this is a real gem.

I started my own business from the ground up in ’04. That first year was a roller coaster – and not the good kind. Struggled to gain leverage in a ruthlessly competitive field, learned some hard lessons, and paid dearly for the mistakes I made. But I never gave up.

I’m no millionaire today, but I’m very proud of what I’ve accomplished. Rewards don’t come without effort. Thanks for the read.

Thanks bud. Things have been tough lately.

@Seamus
Yep. If only I had the knowledge then that I had now.

@Valerie
I hear you. Looking back, I gave up on a bunch of projects because I didn’t see immediate returns. If only I stuck with some of those ventures, I wonder where they could have gone. You’re definitely right though. It’s easy to get impatient when you read about success stories like Darren of problogger and John Chow

@Carla
Nobody could ever accuse you of giving up:) I think that you’re definitely a fighter given everything that is going on in your life. I have faith that your business will succeed
