Anyone can learn the nuts and bolts of affiliate marketing or any other type of online marketing. There are tons of gurus and ebooks training programs that want to show you the way.
Developing a "super affiliate" mindset or embracing the psychology of winning, is not something that can be taught - however it CAN be developed. There are tips and tools that can help you gain more success - with less work AND with a greater sense of personal satisfaction. My .:. "A.I.M." is to help you discover techniques that can put you on a more profitable path.
Affiliates, SEO's and many work at home affiliate managers face isolation, frustration at times lose focus easily and realize how hard it can be to stay self-motivated and on-track.
<strong>One of my goals when I started this blog was to offer motivational and success conditioning resources to affiliates, managers and online marketers. It never happened. I got caught up in all the affiliate, SEO, ad blocking, cooking eating, parasite issues that affect our industry. </strong>
<strong>Success Starts Within!</strong> Long ago, in a previous life, I was a sales trainer and motivational speaker. At my core that's still what I love to do - help people find the inner strength to be more successful! I promise I will stick to my goal and provide more of these types of posts and resources in the future.
With the right attitude ANYONE can learn to be successful. If you are already successful, the right attitude and a few tools can help you achieve even more!
<strong>In 2007 I re-commit to focusing as much on blogging about personal self development tools</strong> for affiliates as I do on datafeeds, niche finding tools, industry news and other nuts and bolts type of information. So I just launched a new blog category called <strong><a target="_new" href="http://affiliate-blogs.5staraffiliateprograms.com/category/affiliate-inspiration-motivation/">A.I.M. Affiliate Inspiration & Motivation</a>. </strong> I've included some of my past blog entries that focus on the "personal" part of what it takes to grow a successful online business.

<strong>You've heard the phrase "Attitude is EVERYTHING" well in our industry it's especially true. You can find all the best keywords, you can build a killer site, you can be an SEO ROCKSTAR - but if your attitude prevents you from focusing, if your attitude is lazy or filled with fear or negative self talk and won't allow you to be successful - then all the training in the world won't help you! If you need an attitude adjustment, you need to commit to start working on that EVERY day, in addition to working on the nuts and blots stuff. I'll help!</strong>
This week, in addition to blogging abut whatever industry news, views or tips I may write about, I commit to at least one article a day that I hope will be inspiring, motivational and provide new tools to help you develop the "Psychology of Winning the Affiliate Game".
I've heard lots of affiliates recently express how hard it is to focus in this business. A distracted marketer is, unfortunately, a poor marketer. Not because they don't try, but due to a lack of focus they can never seem to get started or find it hard to finish important projects. So the "power of focus" will be one thing I'll be writing about this week.
SOOOOOOO
