The Secret to Success in Business, in Life.   by Dustin Twiggs

Easy come easy go. Nobody said life would be easy. Anything worth having is worth working for. Never be intimated. Never let them see you sweat. Never give up. One I heard recently “the loser is the quitter.” And My favorite for inspiration, “don’t give up the day before your miracle happens.”

Heard them all before? Well they’re all true. The number one most important ingredient to success in business or life is perseverance. Think about it. If you have a horrible day today, you still have to wake up tomorrow. Your car breaks down in the middle of traffic. You lose your job. The bank screws up huge and somehow your life savings is missing. The mortgage refinance didn’t happen in time, your rate jumped, and now you can’t afford your own house. You’re hospitalized because of an illness you didn’t ask for, or perhaps a car accident you didn’t cause. A loved one dies. Divorce. All of these things are horrible, but tomorrow you wake up. And then again the next day. For years to come. Depending on how old you are… decades. And in 40 years will today’s events still be so dramatic? You must Persevere my friend.

What about business? Lose that great account? Miss out on a huge bid? Screw up a customer order? You need to bite the bullet, face the problem head on and walk your line. Again, you must persevere. The secret to success is plugging away. It’s that simple. And yet it’s that difficult. When the worst things in business or life come, you want to give up, but you can’t! Take my carcasherdotcom seocontest page. It’s nothing. It’s a simple site that for the longest time Google, Yahoo, and even MSN ignored. But I will persevere! They didn’t care that I made a dog breeds website. They don’t even know who I am! They sure don’t care about my Computer Cables site, but I must push on! Work hard in business and never give up. You will have to learn your particular industry of course to do well, but just knowing an industry is not enough, perseverance is key!

Don’t just take my word for it… take action! Build your own site. Build it about whatever interests you! Are you a dog person? Make a site about Dalmatians. Do you like contests and competitiveness? Jump on the web and get involved with an SEO contest like the carcasherdotcom seocontest. Either way, don’t stop. once you make a commitment to be successful at something you must keep going.

Things that will help you forge on are goals. Remember why you are doing what you are doing. Is it money alone? If so… chances are it will not be enough. For some it is, but for many it is not. Is it for freedom? Expansion of an idea? World peace? Or do you simply want to inform the world, such as been done on sites like this DVI Info page. Or similar to this DIY network page.

Never give up!!
