What is best than to wake up early in the morning to get a word of encouragement, a word of assurance, to let you know there is something great ahead of you.
Your present state does not matter at all, time do change and wealth do fly, the poor man today might be the rich tomorrow and the one with a deem future might be the one with the brightest. We never know what the future has for us.
Why do you think you can never make it? Why do you think you can never be successful? Is it as a result of your present circumstances or because a lot of people have told you that you have no bright future? Do not worry, because you have the brightest future.
As long as you are alive and you are doing what is right, I am sure you will have a great smile, I am sure you will shed tears of joy. It doesn’t matter how poor you are nor How dull you are, it does not matter what you think you know or don’t, the future is more brighter than this, you have a better tomorrow.
You Have to Locate Yourself
Every successful one, who is where he/she is today located themselves one day or the other. They had a starting point, they dropped the old habits, they didn’t follow the crowd, the didn’t do it because others are doing it, it was genuine from their heart, they knew what they were doing, they followed their passion.
Your father might be the president, that doesn’t mean you must go into politics.
The most successful people had to locate themselves one day of their lives.
What do you think you are best at? What do you think you have fullest pleasure in? The truth is, it does not have to tally with others, it doesn’t have to be what they love. It is not about them, it is about you. Nobody will live your future for you.
People will advice you, they are only telling you what they think they know best, they are only telling you what they think is right – and that doesn’t make it right.
The truth: Listen to what others say, but always decide for yourself.
The greatest men are self-made, they are not made by the beliefs of others, they were not made by going to school, they were made by discovering themselves, they were made by excelling in what they are good at – in what they know how to do best.
You have to Work Hard!
Beat this hard into your head, you are not supposed to be told this before you know.
Success does not come by playing, or using your time foolishly, it does not come by having dreams or wishing for luck to smile on you.
True success comes by hardwork, it comes to you by you working hard on what you believe in, it comes by you committing yourself to what you know how to do best.
Sitting down there doing nothing will most definitely not add to you but rather take away the little you have.
A Little Application of Wisdom!
Many people see Micheal Dunlop and will say He is a lazy blogger, It might be true, He spends a lot of His time playing games and moving out with friends, but He is not foolish and is far wiser than many who claim to be spending hundreds of hours per week, He is working wisely.
A wise blogger knows the importance of having a mailing list, and does not dare play with this – He treats it as if it is His second live.
Truly we have people who are strong, super creative and over productive but the truth is, no matter how hardworking you may be, you are the most foolish person if you are not wise.
Wisdom suggests you have a back up plan, and that back up plan in the online world is your list. Build Your List! Build Your List! The money is in the list.
Many people start to make money online, they make hundreds of dollars but are not progressing simply because they are silly and stupid. If you made $100 a month, common sense should be able to tell you to invest around $40 in order to make more money.
Not Afraid of Risks!
I know it! I know that I am one of the craziest person on earth, simply because: I am not afraid of death, I am not afraid to lose my life. I am not afraid to lose my assets.
Successful people are not afraid to take risks, because every success you see is a product of risk, either taken by the inventor or yourself.
You might lose the money you want to invest, but giving it a try will surely have its impact. I am not trying to tell you to be stupid because there are somethings you will know of a certain that there is no way, I am talking about things that are making you afraid, things you don’t know if they will produce a result or not.
You can never say what will become of it if you never give it a try.
Take Action!
This might sound dumb but I know there are different types of people on the web, we have people who will read and forget, many of them will read this post today and forget about it, they will never dear lay their hands on anything, the best they can do is make a comment to say “Great Post”. How long will you do this? How long?
It does not matter what you read, it does not matter what you think you know, what only matters is what you do – and how you do it.
Success is not a product of talks, it is not a product of wish, neither is it a product of imaginations, it is rather a product of action… The action you take.
We are not a product of what we say, we are more of a product of what we do. Your tomorrow is bright, it is really a better one but I can most certainly assure you that you will never experience real success except you get started today.

Nice stuff Oni,
I know that not taking risks is definitely an area that separates those who make money from those who don’t. Because you can’t make money unless you spend it in most cases.
And following the crowd is never a good thing 9 times out of 10, with anything in life for that matter. Especially on the internet though, the last thing you want to do is blend in with all the other a million people trying to make money. Haha. Nice work man.

Hi CJ,
Yeah! You are absolutely right.
Exactly, NEVER FOLLOW THE CROWD, I will say it is the most dangerous thing to do.
Thanks a lot for the nice comment,

Onibalusi, You have motivated us more!
I have noticed that in your every post, there is always a motivational theme!
I guess you really are motivated and like to motivate other people also.
What you mention in the end, is I think the summary of the post. Ask every successful person in ANY field, not just in making money online, how they made it and they will say that they took action!
Thanks for the post and motivation!
-Nabeel
I also agree with you. Oni likes to include some motivations on his posts.
“Ask every successful person in ANY field, not just in making money online, how they made it and they will say that they took action!”
Excellent point you brought up there. There is really no secret, they just took action, failed, then learned, then they took action again. They never stop taking action, even if they are successful now, they are still taking actions.
Exactly Gary,
No matter what you think you know, you are nothing without taking action.
Thanks a lot for the nice comment,

Hi Nabeel,
I am glad I did
Yeah! I am really motivated and I try my best (and I always succeed) to fight every form of discouragement or depression.
Yeah, taking action is the real key – you just have to do it.
Thanks a lot for the nice comment,

Hello Oni,
This really is a pleasant post to read upon. Something that differs from the usual topic of making money online and yet relatively relevant at some point still.
I have always a heart for such quotes and sayings. Somehow, all this makes much sense and listening to my parents rambling ( Its true ) I mean, i know they are there to always look out for the best of me but as you mentioned,
“People will advice you, they are only telling you what they think they know best, they are only telling you what they think is right – and that doesn’t make it right.”
I especially love this part of your quote. It is very true that in the end, it all comes down to you to decide what’s best for yourself.
“The greatest men are self-made, they are not made by the beliefs of others, they were not made by going to school, they were made by discovering themselves, they were made by excelling in what they are good at – in what they know how to do best.”
I want to be that “man”. Not simply because I want to proof to them that I am rich one day but also to let them know that I am capable of being the way I am! Its not how you want me to be what you want but how i want to live the way I decides for myself. =)
cheers
Great post !
Exactly Febap,
A little encouragement can go a long way to help you make money online, to help you achieve your dreams and most importantly, to help you know you have a brighter future.
Yeah, I have seen a lot of people tell me to do this and that but I go my own way and it has NEVER disappointed me.
Thanks a lot for the nice comment,

This is a ggod motivation article. I think everyone wish to have a better tomorrow. Yet, persistency and determination are important so that we will not give up easily when there is obstacle that blocking our effort to go on. We must try our best to overcome it.
Hi Kok,
That is exactly what I wanted it to be. Glad you loved it
Thanks a lot for the nice comment,

Thanks for that wonderful motivational post Oni! I agree that we should drop things and get out of our comfort zone if we want to succeed. Following the crowd is also a bad idea, unless you are following right-minded, successful people. And of course, taking action is our gauge. If we don’t take any action, even the simplest action, nothing will happen.
Cheers
Gary
Yeah Gary,
Exactly, getting out of your comfort zone is a must.
Thanks a lot for the great post,
-Onibalusi
This a very well-thought out post. I’m not going to ask how long it took you to create this amazing craft but good job on bringing-in the nice words and you’re spot on with your ideas.
It’s true that we cannot achieve what we want if won’t follow what our heart desires but then in some cases, doing what we must do can become a road block for a variety of reasons. Mind over heart or heart over mind. What do you think?
Hi Amanda,
Exactly.
I am not sure since they both work together
Thanks a lot for the nice comment,
-Onibalusi
Onibalusi your articles are very much inspiring and motivating. Getting words of encouragement when we wake up is somethings great. This post is not only for loggers but for everyone who wants to achieve something in life. Great work Man.
Hi Mukundan,
Yeah! You are right.
Thanks a lot for the nice comment,

People always expect a better tomorrow… But there is a saying that passing day is always better,
Thanks
