So you want to be a Millionaire !

Most people have a hard time to grasp that there is no shortcut to success in business. There is no such thing as overnight success. If you have seen successfull people in all walks of life: sports, business, entertainment-they might have been discovered overnight but the bottom line is most, if not all, have had years in the trenches.

We all need to look at overselves. Most of us have had jobs and usually several. Take a look at the last job you had where you had earned the most income. How long did it take for you to get to that level? It will be no different in business. It will take time to climb that mountain.

The big difference is that if you have an Internet business you can leverage yourself and accelerate the pace. All you need is the ability to commit to becoming a good student, persevere, and don't lose HOPE.

Jacques,

Everyone wants to be a millionaire, they want instant gratification! Unfortunately, it takes a number of years to build a successful business from a startup. Hewlett Packard and Apple come to mind. They both started in a home garage. Look at them now! Fortune 500 companies!

Nice blog!

Peter: Well said. We all can be in the beginnnig stages of a multimillion dollar business. All of these start up companies started as an idea and where brought to life with energy and committment.
