<\/div>It has been a long long time since my last Blog Post….\r\n\r\nand there is a reason for that.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nYou see.. Before, I always wanted to start my own Internet Marketing business but there was a problem …\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nIt was more of an interest or hobby for me and nothing else…I wasn’t committed and I didn’t know exactly what I wanted to do anyway, so I played around with many different ideas. There are 100\u2019s or ways to make money online but not many are really sustainable.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nI had a comfortable life already so it wasn’t all that important to me really.\r\n\r\nLiving in Thailand with my Thai wife with the sun shining outside the window every morning when I woke up, working a few hours a day. Hell, I was semi-retired at the age of 40\u2026.Lucky me !!\r\n\r\nVery different from my life in Ireland where I am from. \ud83d\ude42\r\n\r\n\"IMG_0121\"<\/a>\r\n\r\nBut I realized something along the way.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nThings were all good for me, (financially included), but things can change<\/strong>.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nAnd things did change<\/strong> for me too, and I hit some pretty difficult times\r\n\r\nbut luckily I got more work and everything improved for me again but……\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nI realized even with that, and because of what happened before, that nothing lasts forever, so I revisited my idea of starting an internet business again.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nI had played around before with several things (this blog included) and had made some money here and there but I never stuck with anything long enough to make a real success.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nYou know why?\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nBecause I never knew if I was doing the right things or not.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nWould this work? Am I just wasting my time? If it works, will it last? Who can I trust to tell me the truth about what works? We all know there are a lots of scammers out there !!\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nSure, some things worked a bit and then stopped working so I lost confidence.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nSo what did I do? …..\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nI bought more courses.. I need to know more. I don’t have all the information yet. I need to learn more.\r\n\r\nI have spent more money on courses then I even want to admit.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nAnd yes, many are great courses. But the truth is I haven’t finished most of them.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nBut in my mind and I know for a fact that it is very possible to build a successful Internet Marketing business.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nBy complete chance I befriended someone in the Internet Marketing arena who heard my story.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nIn the last few weeks Richie<\/a> has become not only a guide for me but also a friend and has told me what I probably knew all along but dismissed.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nHe told me after talking to me that I know everything I need to know already and that I just need to do it. (Take action with what I already know).\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nAt the same time I met Richie<\/a> I also connected with another great guy and Internet Marketer I have been following for many years already, Andy<\/a>.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nAndy<\/a> who also gave me a kick up the rear end about taking action has offered to take me on and finally make me do it.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nSo today, I have made the decision to stop playing around and to commit to this new journey of mine.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nNow and for the rest of 2017 I commit to, with Andys<\/a> and Richies<\/a> help, finally build a successful Internet Business.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nA business based on giving value to my customers and steering them away from scams in the same way that Andy<\/a> and Richie<\/a> do. My goal is to show you how to build a successful business online with me, and sorry, you won’t achieve that with push button solutions. They just don’t exist. I learnt that the hard way.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nI invite you to follow me on my journey to building a successful internet business with the help of my mentors\/coaches\/friends.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nI will endeavor to post at least once a week about my journey, detailing my mistakes, losses, lessons and wins.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nI look forward to sharing my experiences with you.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nPeace, Love and Success,\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nDonal","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
