    The Great Misconception
    Copyright 2003, Michael K. Littles

    With an inexplicable, yet familiar tingle, we come to the edge 
    of our seats with eyes glued to our monitors the moment we spy 
    some tid-bit of information describing the riches earned by 
    the latest Internet marketing guru.
    
    We are drawn to such articles because we are business-minded 
    people, you and I.  And as such, we are also dreamers, 
    believers, and profit chasers. And always will conversations 
    of wealth and achievement spark our imaginations and hold our 
    attention for our own desires compel us to reach for those 
    lofty goals and achievements ourselves.
    
    The gurus would have us believe that with their "secret" 
    knowledge in our corner that making money on the Internet will 
    be an easy process and one that is simple to perform. We then 
    associate those powerful words with another.... That word being 
    WEALTH.
    
    Forever it seems the words Easy, Simple and Wealth by some 
    primeval nature has gone hand in hand with one another. They 
    are indivisibly connected --- at least that's what the gurus 
    would like for us to believe, right?
    
    But how much truth is in it?
    
    If you learn nothing else about running an Internet based 
    business, learn this: There is but one truth about marketing 
    on the Internet.  Learn that one truth and it will aid you in 
    bypassing much of the frustration that most of us go through 
    during the stage in our business development known as The 
    Learning Curve.  
    
    This is the stretch in time where we actually learn how to 
    develop and grow our online presence, and the easiest way 
    to get beyond the learning curve is knowing the One Truth 
    throughout the process. This is the most crucial period in our 
    online business carrier's because this is where 95% would be 
    marketers fall to the waste side never knowing what they had 
    their hands on and never fulfilling their dreams of success.
    
    The one truth is this: "Earning money via the Internet is EASY, 
    and it is also an extremely SIMPLE process."  If you are in the 
    learning curve right now, it may be hard to believe that.  But 
    allow me to explain why it's absolutely true.
    
    When you learn how to combine proper target marketing and the 
    time honored principle of cater to demand with the proper 
    tools to attract customers and close sales.... everything else 
    comes easy and simple -- you simple need to do it over and over. 
    Many gurus will tell you they follow the exact same process and 
    merely plug-in new products as the demand for them arise.
    
    Understand this as well, learning how and doing effective 
    marketing are two totally different aspects of an Internet 
    based business -- And it is of course one of the biggest 
    misconception is to think they are one in the same. True,  
    it very well may be a chore to acquire the knowledge and the 
    wisdom to perfect it, but the rewards of doing so are both 
    long term and well worth your diligence.
    
    The Great Misconception is that it's hard to run an online 
    business. In reality it's the learning how to do it properly 
    that is the challenge. But isn't that true in every aspect of 
    life.  Once you learn how running an online business isn't 
    hard at all.
    
    - It's hard to be a Police Officer.
    - It's hard to be a Fire Fighter.
    - It's hard to be a Doctor or Lawyer.
    - It's hard to work for a boss and watch them enjoy the fruits 
      of your effort.
    
    In comparison, with the right tools and knowledge in your 
    corner, it's easy to set-up a website.  Place ads in front 
    of people who are already demanding what you have to offer 
    and make money at it. It is also less difficult to learn how 
    to become a successful online marketer and you can learn how 
    and then be successful in a very brief period of time...
    
    .... Try to become a doctor in just a few short months --- it's 
    not happening,  Try to become a successful lawyer -- another no 
    go.  In comparison you can become a six figure income earner in 
    the realm of Internet Marketing within a few short months -- 
    Isn't that powerful?
    
    You can pursue your personal success by undertaking the 
    challenge of learning how to become a master in any field 
    you want.  Yet you should know by the facts provided in this 
    article that with persistence the easiest and quickest route 
    to success is as an Internet Marketer.
     
    Pursue your dream with dogged passion, and bring us to the 
    edge of our seats with your success story!
