As you may know I am a student of Alex Jeffrey’s Coaching.

There are plenty of active students on the members’ forum but in the last few weeks the forum has gone quiet, and further to that, people do not seem to be posting on their blogs quite so often.

I assumed that they were all away busy creating products, getting traffic, making money etc, and I wondered what my problem was, as I had more or less come to a halt.

There is always a reason of course for inactivity, ranging from family business, illness, prior commitments or to just plain “hitting the wall”.

That was me last week – a lot of family commitments, a bit of illness and a complete lack of focus.

However, our mentor Alex Jeffreys has surfaced again after his wedding and honeymoon to tell us how unfocused he became, how many distractions he has had during that period – and so on.

Then he told us what he was doing about it

Since then other people have also mentioned their distractions, their illnesses, “hitting the wall” or just good old plain procrastination!

So, what is the point of all this?

Internet Marketing is for the most part a lonely business.

We sit hunched over our computers, in our own little worlds, possibly thinking when it all goes wrong that this only happens to me.
But now we find out that not only are we the only ones affected, but that even successful marketers can have similar problems, just like anybody else.

The point is, don’t beat yourself up for losing focus, having a spot of procrastination, having to commit to your families but just get past it, take a break, have that family time, or whatever is best for you, and then get going again. This is not a race.

Success is about attitude.

There are basically two types of people in this business.
First there are the ones who cave in under pressure and eventually just give up, and then there are those that pick themselves up every time it all goes wrong and just get going again – and again.

These are the successful marketers.

So, take action. Give it your best effort. Keep chipping away and make progress bit by bit.
You are not alone and if you are stuck – ask for help! Get life back on track!

You do not need to be a member of the Alex Jeffrey’s Coaching Forum to do this. You can ask for help in many of the online forums relating to your niche or the Warrior Forum where you will always find someone to help.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
