First post

Well hell. Everyone keeps telling me I should create a blog. I like to talk, so maybe they have a point. What to talk about is another story. Many things interest me, but hey, I think I'll start out with one about online money making. Anyone know what that is? I am a marketing forum owner, so I sure see a lot of people who THINK they know what that is. Sad thing is, most people are just spinning their wheels. I've been there, YOU"VE been there. BUT, I think I have it figured out. Most of the people I see aren't so much focused on actually making money...they want to win, they want the adreneline rush of a new launch, they love the excitement. It's all I can figure...because the minute the rush is over, they move on. So maybe this blog will be about the pathology of marketing. Hey, I'm guilty of it. Let's face it, it's FUN! So maybe we just acknowledge the things we love about this business and forget the money. Sure, it's a nice perk. It's also how you determine if you won or not. So, I think I'll call my little blog the Fortune Cookie. It fits in my mind. Let me know if you figure out why!

FINALLY!!! Glad to see you did it!

I love the people I have met through this business, we have learned together and "been burned" together at times. But it is a learning curve. And for myself, like you say Chris I try not to get caught up in that adrenaline rush to many times. I try to pace myself ( Ha)

Hi Lisa. My first follower!! Yep, easy to get burned if you do not treat it as a game. The flip side of that is, treat it too much like a game and you will never WIN! It takes work and a competitive spirit to survive!!
