Niche Marketing: Long Term Thinking & Planning

Long term thinking is hard for many people. We humans are emotional. We want things fast. We have desires, dreams, feelings and it becomes hard to plan years from now.

However, if you could slightly change the perception of thinking from short term to long term, nice things happen. Let me explain…

If you dedicated yourself to working two or three hours per day, you could get around 1,000 hours worked in a full year.

Think about learning a foreign language. Someone could spend 1,000 hours per year learning another language. Just two hours per day can make a huge difference in people’s lives.

This is long term thinking. Think about lawyers and doctors. They go to school forever. They may not make good money for years and years. All their friends are making more than them and are done with school.

However, they keep striving away, studying, working and paying the price for the future. One day, they are a doctor or lawyer and begin making big money doing what they’ve worked so hard for.

That is long term thinking. I believe if people can adopt that type of thinking for Internet Marketing, then great things will happen.

Think about it. There are still millions and millions of people who are not even online yet. Still, many who are online have not purchased things online yet.

There are billions of people on the planet and new people are born every minute. There are only millions of people online, not billions.

So, shrink it down further. How many are into Internet Marketing? There are a very small percentage of people who are into Internet Marketing.

This means that you are way ahead of the game by simply being into IM. Even if you are brand new, you’re still way ahead of everybody else.

New people get turned on to IM every day. And, more and more people pull out that credit card and make their first purchase online every second.

And, there are many breakthrough opportunities still to come.

My point here is to think long term and plan long term. I know if I don’t quit, keep learning, keep taking action, keep investing in myself and my business that eventually I will succeed.

Want to know how to guarantee your success? Here it is… don’t ever quit. If you never quit, wouldn’t you agree you’re sure to succeed?
