• #4 – If you have some technical or quick writing skills, you have an edge – a DEFINITE advantage to succeed.

    I am Just being totally honest.

    You will read sales letters where people say…

    “I didn’t know how to type,
    I could barely tie my shoes
    and LOOK AT ME TODAY!!
    I am making all this money and I STILL have no idea how it all works..“

    Honestly, that’s RARE.

    Not impossible, just RARE.

    Most of the successful net-preneuers have some skills backing them up.

    Some people know nothing, but they are skilled in other areas that most people are not (like capital or major action taking) .

    which brings me to the next point

    ……If you don’t have the skills, then you MUST be good at managing and spending some money to get stuff done.

    ……If you are broke with no skills, then you are in a tougher spot. This is the truth!

    BONUS:
    YOU MUST Put any learned skill into  practice right away or you will lose IT.

    I learned HTML and built sites immediately. I can code without a fancy HTML editor, because I am so comfortable with the code (ok, granted nowadays most 3rd graders learn what I know in school)

    On the other hand, I took a day long course in CSS, fell in love with the possibilities, and never did anything with it, and I am still severly CSS challenged

    My HTML knowledge is liberating. I can make web changes on the fly, my lack of CSS is debilitating, since the code is so much cleaner and easier to manipulate when you know what you are doing..

    You get the idea.

    What is the good news??

    The GREAT, FANTASTIC, AMAZING NEWS is that you can acquire some of these skills by sometimes devoting a DAY or possibly a week to really studying a skill. My HTML course – the liberating one? Took 18 hours total (and it was a lot more than just HTML, including FTP, animated gifs (which were HOT then), and more.)


    Do you have 18 hours to learn something that will give you an EDGE forEVER?

    By the way… many of these courses are available online, many FOR FREE, or close to it! This includes even more complex skills like Graphic design (photoshop tutorials).
