This is another time where I rocked back and forth in my chair wondering what kind of title to bring people in. They say a good title brings in views you know? And it's the truth. My thing is, I want every last one of my views to find some relation or connection with my writing, because that's about the only motivation I have for doing this.I rather have 100 views and most of them relate to what I say, rather than 1000s to just skim and leave. If you guys read my bio, I can't make things up, nor do I throw out article after article just to say "Hey I wrote this many, cool right?". But Anyways, here's my Story.

To those that have seen my writings, you know I have a decent amount of articles circling around games, and few of them are different topics to be diversified. This battered newbie has seen the glorious "make money online" schemes that virtually take about a year to see any real money, assuming you have the "right" training. Now, I'm not an instant gratification type of guy, I believe in putting in hard work just like the rest of the people working their 9-5s so they can continue to exist in this society. Maybe perhaps I'm an ambitious type, because I believe doing the same amount of work and getting paid much more than the peanuts these corporations give us. Really at the end of the day, people want to know how to make the quickest amount of money in the shortest amount of time.

And that's how they get us, through those hype-filled products written and made by people who haven't made a DIME online but will profit because it sounded good enough for you to make an emotional impulse buy off you. This is how they make their money and I'm pretty sick of it. I guess that's the "fake it till you make it" saying shines the most, but this kind of deception is costing the rest of us money. I understand this isn't for everyone and that most people will be buy the dream but without the motivation to make it a reality...still. I can only speak on my behalf, however I know there are people who spend the last of their money trying to make it all work.

On my end I can't complain, because I fell off doing the Internet Marketing. Why? because I don't have the funds necessary to support it. While it is true that yes, it doesn't take much AT ALL to fund your business, still I can't even afford that. Here is my typical day for the past 2 months since I lost my job. I...wake up, Turn the PC on, Hop on Facebook and Twitter and Spectate, watching other people living the life I wish I could live. Now, there are some who lie their butts off about how great their life is, but on the other side of things.. those comforting lies sound better than the unpleasant truths. No Car and No job.. the odds are heavily stacked against me. It's difficult for me and it's like battling depression from day to day.

But what was my purpose of telling you my small story? About everything I write has a purpose.. this one being that I want to look back at this and laugh HARD. Just like whatever it is you're going through in your life. If your a visual type of person, grab a piece of paper and jot down everything that you do that isn't helping you progress at all.

Here is an Example (And Yes this is true):

1. I procrastinate way too much
2. I turn to Video Games for comfort when things get too frustrating
3. I buy in to products I have a great feeling will work, but don't have the motivation to keep going
4. I love the idea of making money, but at times don't see all the hard work that needs to be done..thus losing focus
5. I complain a bit too much about my situation at times and don't do anything to change it.

As you can see above, this is my list of things of all the negative things that gets me in trouble as far as making money and living free. I have something similar sitting on my wall so no matter what I have to see it. Seeing that makes me want to change what I am doing. Another thing I do is have a weekly goal sheet where I write down all the things I need to accomplish by the end of the week. It helps to bring that focus back to what you are doing in the first place, and that is to make money and live free. Now that may not be your goal, but to most that is a key issue.

Final Thoughts of the Battered Newbie:

I was feeling some type of way when writing this from start to finish. Even when writing this I was hoping back n forth between Facebook and Twitter because I found more interest in seeing what others were doing opposed to writing this. But it wasn't towards the middle I had a message to convey to anyone who is fortunate enough to read this.. and I just stopped going back to those Social media sites. The lesson I want to get across is to help people. We all go through things in our lives and I just want people to relate and motivate him to do more in their lives. I want that "I read this and it motivated me to do this and that" kind of feeling to flow through people. I hope this Article helps people and helps them improve.
