I have been following the news on Yahoo and Microsoft deal in the past few months and I realized that Yahoo Chairman Jerry Yang has a lot of pressure under his shoulders. A lot of people wanted the deal to consummate at the price set by Microsoft. I will not be arguing on whether the deal is worthy or not. However, I admire his courage to withstand the pressure of being attack from different sides and still kept his ground.
Jerry Yang together with the other business-people like Jack Welch, Bill Gates, Steve Balmer etc. experience a lot of pressures. How these men respond to pressures is what counts.
One thing that I observed among these successful business-people is that they do not quit, blame others or whine about their mistakes. They however tackle the pressures and respond accordingly.
Pressures are like the wind… you cannot control it but you can set your sail to a favorable navigation.
Your response to pressure will determine your next direction.
Happy Marketing.

Tag:motivation for success motivation on starting a businessWhile I was searching for the “magic formula” on being a multi-millionaire in the Internet business, I came across to the blog entries of two prominent blogger in the Internet/Affiliate community. Joel Comm and Andrew Wee seem to be telling the same main ingredient for success to happen: “action”.
A lot of Internet marketers, that includes me, is always looking for the magic formula in order to succeed online. We buy most of the eBooks that has been release, spend time in forums asking questions “how to earn money” but we have not implemented what we have learn. We have the excuses like I do not have a domain, I do not know how to write, I am not a techie guys, and countless I do not know. I have seen in forums that some of the successful internet marketers have started their careers in making blogs at blogger.com (of course having your own domain is better).
Perhaps, the main formula is to act now and learn the things as you go along the way.
There is a saying that “how will you know that your writing sucks if you have not written something”.
Set your plan in motion to take the initial steps in the “millionaires” journey.
“Even a thousand technique is useless if is not projected into the hands.” – from the book Samurai Selling.
