Laziness doesn’t have a place when the decision to earn an Internet income becomes reality. Earning extra money to pay the bills or choosing the path to shed the mundane 9 to 5 job, becoming your own boss and firing your current one will take a lot of work. Are you hoping to have things handed to you or are you willing to work hard for it?

The silver platter syndrome is my way of calling people out who are just plain lazy and expect to get things handed to them without working hard for it. It doesn’t have to be difficult because you also should be working smart to ensure success and less aggravation.

Here are the 3 basics you should be practicing to make money online and beyond:

1. Learn the Basics – if you jump into this business without knowing the basics you will be guaranteed a road to nowhere. What are those basics?

- Traffic Generation
- List Building
- Relationship Building
- Quality Content

2. Execute those Basics – don’t just learn them make it happen! The only way you are going to get positive results is by applying what you learned into a cohesive and simple plan. Don’t complicate things by trying to reinvent the wheel.

3. Commit to those Basics – here is probably the toughest part for most people. If you are not consistent, dedicated and focused on your goals it will be a long journey. No one is going to give you success because it is earned!
