Take The Jump And Get It Done
Posted by Posted in Blogging Tips, daily ramblings Posted on 05-07-2008
I am very pleased to say that yesterday I moved along far in my endless process. I got a paypal account. This may not be a great accomplishment for some of us, but believe me my friends, if you are under 18 a great accomplishment it is. I will now be able to be paid the money I make, it is a shame I didn’t have paypal months ago, I would have a few thousand dollars by now. If you want to send me any money, feel free! Just contact me! (You defiantly don’t have to, I was kind of kidding, but I do like money :)).
This post is not all about my accomplishments, it is also about some advice to you. It wraps up other things besides that as well.
What I want to tell you is that you have to take the jump and get it done. You will never get across the cliff if you don’t jump, you will never get the girl if you don’t ask, and you will never win if you don’t play. You have to get out there and have it finished, instead of waiting around. This is one of the biggest problems for people that want to make money online, maybe because they won’t take the jump to start a blog or ask for a little help. To be successful online, not just in making money, you will have to jump many times before you reach the end. I hope you can take the jump and get it done.
I am also in question of my self, and my readers who comment should be able to answer this question. As you can see I have many ads up, and I enjoyed putting them up for people as free promotion. Some of the people (all eventually) subscribed to Green Flamingo to get the ad up as you saw yesterday, and there is something colliding with the ads. I am wondering if it is ok to take the ads down the 15th, for I was hoping to take the first ones down then. I do not want to upset people by taking the banner down so quickly, because they subscribed, but I wonder if they will continue to subscribe after the ads are taken down. That is why I need you help me answer this, whether I should take down the ads July 15th or keep them up. I do have an idea, but I will hear your opinion before it is shared.
There will be more updates soon, and I hope I can remember all the things forget!
inspiring post.. but you know its easier said than done… i know most people doing this are so much desperate to making money BECAUSE they desperately NEED it… So i understand them when they say they’re very skeptic on taking the next action

You are right, sometimes you have to just take the plunge, though a little planning isn’t a bad idea!
I don’t know about the links thing - I guess just do what you said you would? I have been too busy lately to be much of anywhere!
@ Melvin-yes, it is an inspiring post but is easier said than done. But what I am trying to say is they have to be a bit less skeptic, planning might help, but they have to take the actions to get them done.
@ Chelle - planning is a good idea! About the links thing, I offered links for subscribing (I am not in Blogging Idol, though I wish I was, and I am following the same path as those others) and I am wondering whether I should continue to take them down July 15th. It may make people unsubscribe.
I would say keep the links so you don’t disappoint the people that have subscribed, but remove them at the end of the month to be fair.
And congrats on the Paypal, I also finally got mine around a week ago, it really does feel great!
By the way, I made $4.50! Not much, but really does feel great!

Thanks Rajaie, I will keep them up, I’ll just keep loading images on this thing until it bursts, as you can see adsense is starting to sneak up and hopefully people will click, I have made $0.00 today. I will now rely on my services at greenflamingodesigns.(Coming out tomorrow, first ones free!)
[…] should remember hearing that you have to take the jump, land successfully and be in the spirit to start and succeed. This is true to get over anything […]
