This is the sentence that I saw on one dude’s forum signature on WarriorForum which I find to be very motivational. I’ve seen people who gave up too early — probably days before they got their first sale — but they just gave up and run away.

Sometimes life doesn’t work like that. You need to be patience, never give up and determine to finish what you started.

Let me tell you a little bit about how I got to where I am today.

I can only describe my past self as – persistence. I have a strong determination and I believe that money can be made online and I can even be a millionaire through the Internet.

But at that time, I was earning less than $3 PER MONTH and these people were laughing at me:

• My teachers (even teachers who have HEARD of internet marketing)
• My friends
• Even my parents…

Not a single person around me believe that I could make money on the Internet because in their mind, there’s only scams and p*rn on the Internet. Or maybe just eBay and Amazon. Or maybe a few more like Google and MySpace.

Well, persistence is the sole reason why I am still in the Internet marketing space. I do what I believe in. I go for what I believe in. A year back, all my marketer friends were convincing me that there are no money left in the dating niche and that the competition was too high for a little Asian dude like me to jump in — I proved them wrong…over and over again.

At this time (while I’m writing this), I have two major college tests in a week’s time and I haven’t even been touching the books. I also have my first ever solo internet marketing launch, I am also earning money for my family as well as paying the most of the bills. I am going through the hardest time of my life. I gave up my social relationship and even a big part of my teenage life because I want to do what I believe in — making millions through the Internet.

Because when I make my first million, I want to go to all these people who laughed at me in the first place — and probably laugh back at them.

There is no reason for anyone to give up. I know a guy from Warrior Forum (who has the above quotes as his signature) called Yommys who is from Nigeria. We all know what kind of country Nigeria is famous for. But this guy fought against the odds and he made his first thousand dollar on ClickBank.

When I started online, people doubted me. Because of who I am. Because of my age. Because of my dreams. Because of where I’m from. But that didn’t change me. And I hope nothing can change your goals or your dreams.

Peace out.
