There are so many exciting financial opportunities online for regular individuals like you and I. Building abusiness online has many enticing rewards but also a unique set of challenges.In order to overcome, or avoid altogether, the challenges that come with starting an online business it iswise to get a good perspective and then follow specific step which will be crucial to your success.

As technology becomes ever more powerful, the opportunities for individuals like you and I to create alivable income that can be maintained from a simple laptop are mind-boggling!

Think about it: All you need is an internet connection and you can start business that not only pays yourbills, but allows you to live a comfortable, exciting life! Forget being tied down to one location. Imaginebeing able to jet off to Hawaii for a month of snorkeling, scuba diving and working on a beautiful beach… inthe middle of winter! The possibilities are enough to excite anyone.But hold your horses. Building an online business, like any job, requires a set of skills, knowledge, andmost importantly, a strong work ethic, to succeed. You will need to acquire these skills and disciplines onyour own initiative. You must develop an entrepreneurial mindset rather than an employee mindset.Make no mistake, this is no pipe dream. Thousands of people are leaving behind soul-crushing corporatejobs to live a mobile, flexible, comfortable life funded by their online income.

You can be one of these people too! No more micro-managing bosses, strict schedules, minimal vacationtime or time away from loved ones. True freedom is waiting for you. Will you take it for yourself?

Making a career change like this can be incredibly daunting. But if you think deeply about the next 5 steps,you can find the confidence within yourself to take action, work through challenges, and ultimately achievethe life we both know is possible.

1. What is Your Why? I’ve seen far too many people seduced by the online business lifestyle. You know what I’m talking about.Exploring exotic countries, foods, and people, taking long vacations, relaxing by the pool as you get a tan,and so on. What these people always overlook is the work and the discipline required to be able to indulgein all of those things. It is absolutely possible to enjoy life fully, but like everything worthwhile, it requireswork.For this reason you NEED to have a deep sense of purpose that motivates you. If you don’t have thispurpose, this “WHY”, then it will be far easier to give up, stay at your unsatisfying job, and remain trapped.Why do you want to live a mobile lifestyle? Is it enough to motivate you through the inevitable challengesyou will face as you pursue this goal?

2. Believe in Yourself

Remember: There are many thousands of people JUST LIKE YOU, that have left their boring jobs, andsucceeded in creating an online business that pays their bills and allows them to travel the world. You cando it too!As you run into new challenges you will likely have doubts. This is completely normal. Everyone hasdoubts as they pursue worthwhile, difficult goals. You must not let these doubts in. Do not let your doubtswin. Allow them to pass, and get back to work. As you work through your doubts you will find that they’lldisappear and be replaced by an even stronger belief that you can and will succeed!

3. Do not ProcrastinateProcrastination is what happens when you allow your doubts to win over your mind. You procrastinatebecause you doubt your ability to succeed at the tasks required to build a profitable online business. Youwould rather not work than experience failure or frustration in the face of an obstacle.As an entrepreneur you must build habits and structure that you will stick to day in and day out regardlessof how you feel. Without a boss telling you what to do every day building these habits is extremelyimportant.So when you feel lazy, depressed, or frustrated, the answer is ALWAYS to GET TO WORK. Just getstarted. Say to yourself, “I really don’t feel like doing this right now, but I’ll do just 5 minutes of work.” You’llfind that once you start working you will work for much longer than 5 minutes. Your negative feelings willvanish, and they will be replaced instead by a renewed vigor!Consult your “WHY”. Is it strong enough to push through these negative feelings? I think you’ll find that itis!4. You Are The Average Of The 5 People You’re Around The MostTime and time again I’ve found this to be too true. If you’re frustrated with your place in life, look at thepeople you spend the most time with. Are they negative, lazy, or unmotivated? If they are it might be timeto look for more positive and ambitious people to hang out with.

When you’re around people who are taking on big goals every single day you will be inspired to do thesame! Your social group will become a positive feedback loop, inspiring each other to be better everysingle day.TIP: If you’re unable to find positive people to associate with, look to podcasts, videos, and books.Personally, I’ve found podcasts to be an extremely valuable source of positivity and motivation. I stronglyrecommend The Tim Ferriss Show.5. Get Professional TrainingThis expands on step 4. Surrounding yourself with positive, ambitious people is valuable, but it doesn’treplace nuts and bolts training from professionals. Be humble and honest about your level of skill andknowledge. There are so many places to get high quality, free training that addresses every aspect ofbuilding an online business. And many more places that offer even better, premium training. Don’t be afraidto invest your time and resources to get the skills and knowledge you will need to succeed.Apply your new skills immediately and make adjustments as you go. Do not procrastinate!If you follow each of these step you will find yourself with the right mindset, a resilient purpose, and theskills you need to escape the rat race. You can live the life of your dreams just like many others! Resolve tomake it happen!
