Don't Do Anything, Just Let it Happen (Kind of)

 I have been thinking.  Maybe the best way to get the things we want to be done, is to not do anything.

Sounds crazy right but since I've been young there has been this age-old saying

A watched pot never boils









It is so true I think.  You spend ages watching over a pot, for example, to make sure the food doesn't burn and once your back is turned you are in trouble.

For me, I am currently juggling eBay Amazon and 5 websites.

Plus training to get myself more able to develop the websites.  I say this very often f**k sake eBay Why?  My head feels like it's just been hit by a bowling ball and I have to wake up to a million orders.

This is not a bad thing.  Far from it but then if only affiliate marketing was so easy.

It is a watching game no doubt and I wonder if the only thing for it is to be so active that 1 of these ideas gets slept on.

Currently, my main platform I work on is Wealthy Affiliate.

I have fell in love with it.  Not going to lie but since I stopped using blogger and started using this instead I have not made any money.  I think maybe i'm missing a trick or two but I definitely don't feel this is time wasted.  In my opinion my main website DynamicIdeas4Life.com is really coming together, and I have plenty ideas to MAKE it even better.

Then there is my other website which the ideas just seem to be writing themselves for ibusinesstoday.com.  My only problem is time.  My eBay takes up most of it to be fair.  Although I have signed up for a good number of platforms since deciding to become a web developer.

Just to name some; Herculist, Lead Lightning, Leads Leap and Elite Downline Builder

Too many really can't remember them all if truth be told.

BUT I really like this idea.  Having dormant streams of revenue.

My friend told me about 50 Cent.  His first commercial album Get Rich or Die Trying he set up something where people could buy his album with Bitcoin.  He made something like $10 Million that he didn't even know about.

I would guess because he was so focused on other areas of his business that he forgot about it.

For me that is what I want to happen.

Actually, this story I never get sick of telling.  I am a keen traveller.  I booked cheap plane tickets to go to Dublin Ireland £5 each way for me and my cousin.  Black friday sale.  I'd just started my blog and I reviewed a clickbank product called Lepitox.  I never thought about making any money from it.  I mean I set it up for this purpose but I didn't have this thought in my mind that it would work.

Neither may  I add that i thought it wouldn't work - there was no expectation there.

But what happened was my trip to Ireland was in danger of not going ahead because I couldn't afford it.  I remember being at the Gym in the changing room texting my cousin to ask if he could borrow some money.  He couldn't and that was the end of it but what I remember was checking my ClickBank and there was over $200 in sales!  I could not believe it.  

I got to Ireland with my cousin.  He was a bit too shy around the girls for my liking but we got there, and wow this post it turned out had made me money within a week of starting my blog.  

Keywords perhaps I don't know but ever since every time I've checked my Clickbank to see if I've made any sales NONE ~ I have written much better posts since then almost 100 but never had this same luck.

Kettle, Pot.



My theory.  It is only a matter of time till with blog posts such as this one.  I manage to draw people in.

A bit like being unlucky with love you will meet someone when you least expect it.

By comparison I think this is very much the same with internet marketing.

Rule 1:  Don't ever give up.
Rule 2:  Set up multiple possible income streams
Rule 3:  Stay positive...

and just like that...
