As a newbie to the 'making money online' business, deciding exactly which route to follow can be overwhelmingly complex due to the numerous types of business available whether they'd be affiliate marketing, adsense or even a combination of the two.
Making money online not only entails hard work but it is worth remembering that it has been around for a very long time. With that in mind, it is important for newbies to know that what we are doing and the effort which goes into it, are actually still relevant at the present moment.
As a certified, full time lawyer from Cyprus, I found the job to be generally enjoyable. I chose to study the law partly on my parents' advice but also because back in high school, like many people, I didn't really have a clear idea of what I wanted to do with my life.
Internet marketing never really entered my mind as a viable option until I began realizing that I was not particularly pleased with some aspects of the legal profession, the most important of which included the fact that I would be stuck in one country for the rest of my working life as well as the fact that, for the most part, the legal profession cannot generate passive income.
Unlike my boss at the law firm where I used to work, I have never been a workaholic. While I have nothing but massive respect for people who do consider themselves workaholics, in my view, these people are lucky in having discovered their niche in life and it would not be far from the truth to say that these people are probably in love with their jobs.
But not everyone is happy with their current jobs or lifestyles. In my case, having a life enriched with so many interests, I simply must divide my time between work and leisure. And so, having flexibility both in terms of working hours and mobility have become vitally important.
Being an avid student of psychology, I believe in psycho-analyzing myself in order to find out what it is that motivates me. I find that, for some strange reason, I can pursue certain projects only if I have conceived them! This mindset is, by its nature, very limiting. I can remember countless times when friends would come up with business ideas, only for me to partly or completely disregard them, probably because deep inside, I had never fully accepted those ideas.
This brings me to today. I have come to the decision that the best course of action is to follow my gut. If only I had known when I was in high school what I know now, I am sure that my life would have taken a different turn.
My goal is financial independence and I plan to achieve this through internet marketing. I know that with dedication and hard work, any goal is achievable.
