Online marketing made easy is about developing the proper mindset prior to implementing any strategies or techniques. This will save much time, energy, and investment by developing the clarity needed to succeed.
It’s easy to take some training courses and invest some money, but without clear goals and a strong sense of purpose, it will be challenging to sustain the effort needed long-term.
Let’s discuss some ways to establish a strong foundation at the beginning, so that we are willing to meet any challenges along the way, and use those challenges to fuel our efforts rather than deter us in any way.
“The purpose of life is a life of purpose.”
Online Marketing Made Easy — The Proper Mindset
With the proper mindset, we can accomplish anything in life. Why then do we find it so challenging to put this mindset in place?
Well, let’s break this down a bit and see what we discover.
First of all, we experience the majority of the “same” thoughts every day. And, secondly, we mostly pay very little attention to them.
Awareness of what is flying through our minds on a daily basis is a good start. We then can “choose” to replace some of the distractions with more life-enhancing thoughts based on the truth of Who we really Are.
We have all picked up a bit of nonsense along the way that we have accepted as fact. With a little time and effort, we can discover that we have been basing many of our decisions on false premises.
Living in the Dark
It’s like having a blindfold on to what is really happening around us. Instead of being creative, we are merely projecting our false data onto others and our environment. This leads to a perceptual disaster.
The light within us, or the truth, is still there, but we have blinded ourselves to it. Fortunately, we only have to turn on the light to eliminate the darkness and see with a new vision.
“The real voyage of discovery consists, not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.”
Once we are able to see with a “new” vision we can then move forward productively. Our actions will be both effective and efficient and we will see steady progress.
This does not mean that there will not be challenges and roadblocks along the way, but we will be much better prepared to handle them with our revised mindset.
Online Marketing Made Easy — Preparing the Soil for Growth
Let’s now create a strategy to prepare our mindset for any goal or objective that we may have. This doesn’t have to be an online marketing business as it can be anything at all. Better grades at school, a more loving and intimate relationship, improved sports performance, or being more effective at our current job.
This mindset will permeate all areas of our lives and we will see significant improvement over time in those areas.
Before we get into any specific steps to take, let me caution you that change and discovering our true power can be frightening at first. Recognizing this now will not only help us progress but will keep us from self-sabotaging once we arrive.
We will find that many friends and family members may not like the changes we are making for any number of reasons. That is why it is important to surround ourselves with like-minded people.
“People are like dirt. They can either nourish you and help you grow as a person or they can stunt your growth and make you wilt and die.”
So be prepared not to be fully welcomed into certain circles which is actually a good thing. We have some important work to do related to our overall destiny, and we do not have the time and energy to spare on needless distractions whether that is people in our lives or technology/device overwhelm.
Some Practical Steps to Take to Fertilize the Soil of our Minds
Let’s begin with a few simple steps in the direction of our goals:
1) Gain clarity on exactly what we want/desire
2) Acknowledge ourselves for all the successes as well as failures that have gotten us to this point in life
3) Understand that there will be challenges along the way
4) Create a plan of action comprised of a series of steps to our destination while recognizing that things will change along the way as more information and experience are gathered
5) Be prepared to handle any resistance to proceeding with the realization that this is a good thing as we are identifying our fears and limiting beliefs
6) Make the first step as simple as possible in order to break the inertia and begin our Momentum Machine
7) Follow our plan and make adjustments along the way
8) And most important of all, Have Fun!
We have just created a Can Do mindset that will serve us well now and into the future.
Online Marketing Made Easy — What about the Technical Stuff?
Now that we have some clarity and a plan of action, we can much more easily determine what kind of online training will work for us.
There is so much information out there, some good and quite a bit not-so-good. In order to save time, effort, and money running around in circles, as I certainly have over the years, let’s recommend a training and income generation program that covers all the bases and creates a strong foundation of knowledge on which to build a sustainable business.
After many years in this business, I have found Wealthy Affiliate to check all of the boxes in terms of education, community, technical support, and tools, as well as advanced training as we progress.
A community of like-minded folks to whom we can direct our questions as we proceed with the training is invaluable.
Here’s a detailed Review of Wealthy Affiliate that I created to present the basic strategies and content of this training program. It really makes things easy by simplifying the mysteries of online marketing and presenting the training on a step-by-step basis.
If you have any specific questions please message me.
Breaking things down into practical steps allows us to learn as well as earn as we go. When confronted with a problem we have an online community to ask questions.
People in the community range from beginners to experts so whatever the challenge there is a viable solution.
Okay, I think that message is clear.
Online Marketing Made Easy — One Step at a Time
No need to get all frustrated and confused about creating and building a business on the internet. It is just vital to create the right mindset going in and surround ourselves with people who can help.
Let’s break it down:
1) Get clear on exactly what we want and make sure we truly desire it for the right reasons (we will know intuitively by how we feel about it when we visualize or think about it)
2) Do whatever is necessary to create a Purpose-Driven mindset
3) Get hooked up with a legitimate program like Wealthy Affiliate where the basics are taught and a supportive community is provided
4) Create a plan of action and complete one step at a time. Each step naturally leads to the Next Step.
5) Welcome the resistance and challenges along the way as they will strengthen our commitment and drive
6) Break the inertia and get started and then very soon the Key to Mastery will be discovered.
7) And last but not least, have fun with this. When we love what we do the results are a given.
Online Marketing Made Easy — Some Final Thoughts
Online or internet marketing may or may not be something we want to do. The main point here is that if it is, it is doable and we are quite capable of doing it.
Whether it is earning a few extra dollars per month to help with the budget, or building a more significant business of several thousand dollars per month, it is all possible and it does start with that First Step.
Impostor Syndrome
This is something to ignore or let go of immediately if any of us are bothered by this. What this involves is us pretending we are not good enough to succeed at whatever we truly desire to achieve.
The whole purpose of a business, well beyond income, is to serve others well with a product or service. Even if we just know a little bit more than someone else on a topic we can be of service and help those folks out.
The added bonus is that as we serve more people the more our experience and knowledge will increase enabling us to assist many more others.
So forget impostor syndrome if it is an issue at all, and just go for it.
The Time is Now
“When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all of your thoughts break their bonds: your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive and you discover yourself to be a greater person than you ever dreamed yourself to be.”
No better time than the present since the present is where all of our power resides. We can delay if we want, but now that we are more aware of what is really going on, we simply see any delay as a total waste of time.
Online marketing made easy is all about committing to ourselves, deciding on a direction that makes sense to us, and then getting out there by educating ourselves so that we can get our message out to help as many people as possible.
This is a simple process made complex only by our very own doubts and uncertainties. Let’s move beyond all of this with a Purpose-Fueled Mindset.
All the Best and have Fun on the Journey!

Thanks, Vlad. I appreciate your comments. Once we let go of our doubts and embrace a mindset base on unlimited possibilities anything is possible. All the best.
Joseph,
This article is amazingly encouraging and beneficial.
As someone who spends several hours every day on my online blog the mindset we start and end with is the absolute most important thing. On particularly long articles it can be easy to start feeling some burnout or writers’ exhaustion, but when we keep our goals and motivations in check and helps to provide clarity and focus to reach those goals.
Nothing successful was ever achieved without effort and dedication.
Hard work too.
Thanks, Mark. I appreciate your thoughts. All the best.
