One of My Most Asked Question
Adam Doolittle recently sent me an email claiming that I control 18.08% of the publishing market for earning money online. How this was calculated, I am not sure. Adam asked me what I attribute most of my success to. This is a question that I get asked a lot but surprisingly, I have never written a blog post about it because I’m not sure how many people will actually understand the answer. The number one reason for my Internet success is…
My wife.
Wasn’t the answer you were expecting, was it? Well it’s true and I’m going to tell you why. You can be the most knowledgeable person in the world about blogging and Internet marketing but if you don’t have the support of your wife or significant other, it’s really really hard to be a success at anything.
Behind Every Successful Man is a Woman
I was doing OK before I met Sarah. However, I didn’t hit big time until she came into my life. No, she wasn’t some Internet guru or superstar blogger. She knew nothing about that stuff. What she did offer was a positive family environment and unwaivering support for whatever it was that I wanted to do. She was my number one cheerleader and inspired me to levels I never dreamed possible. You will be amazed at the things you can do when you have a truly supportive wife or girlfriend backing you.
Get Your Relationships In Order
Blogging is about relationships. If you have a negative relationship with your readers, the blog is not going to succeed. However, if you have a negative relationship with your significant other, your blog’s success is the last of your worries. If you truly want to be successful, have a successful relationship with your wife/girlfriend first. The rest will fall into place.
For those who are single, and there are a lot of you, take heart. You have a better chance at building a successful blog than most couples because you don’t have to deal with any of the negative crap that seems to fall onto many relationships. However, the chance of you beating a couple who are in sync with each other is very slim. But don’t worry. Successful people don’t remain single for long.
