A Money Making Journey: A Year's Review
When I first "got serious", about making money online last year. And by get serious, I mean be tempted by all of the programs that had really big promises and flashy testimonials and guarantees. I signed up with multiple programs and tried it out for a while, but when I didn't see the money come in or any progress I got frustrated, quit that program, and moved on to the next one.
Appealing to the more ADD portion of my desire, I turned to the instant gratification programs: GPT sited, where I was paid to click on ads and I could see immediate returns for the work I was putting in. Surveys allowed me even more ($2-10 per survey) return for less work, although less frequently. Working with those programs I was still not making the money that I wanted to make.
So coming into the new year I knew that I wanted to begin with and stick with one program that I would decide to grow in. I realized that I was expecting the programs to make money for me, with little or no input, and now when I see and hear people that are discouraged about not being able to make money, I think of myself back then trying to reap reward with no input. I didn't understand the lapse in my judgment that made me believe that I could some how get something for nothing.
Looking back at the year that has elapsed, I'm really glad that I have moved on from that and actually became serious about making money on the internet. I am sticking with Qyao.com, which you can read about in some of the older posts. And after that shameless plug, I just want to say that whichever program, product, or business that you decide to enter, stick with it, put the petal to the metal, and make your own success, take responsibility for yourself as a member in the program and help to make it better, because I've been told over and over again that programs, don't fail, people do....and having been one of those failing people, I know that its true.

This sounds almost exactly like my Internet marketing path. Right now, I'm busy trying to promote 2 different websites and some clickbank products. I've also gotten into paid surveys recently. I think I'm slowly finding a happy medium between having too many programs and too little.
