A man once asked: Why are you in business? Dumb question! Answer; because I want to make more money, and have more time. So doesnt that pretty much sum it up for most of us? We all work at least one job, and some of us work two or three, and then try to find time to build our part time 15 minutes a day online empire! So we start out full of passion and enthusiasm, and enjoy the challenge always thinking about being able to make money online. Unfortunately it rarely happens over night, and if WE DONT KNOW ANYTHING about html, we might find that simply placing a banner on our web site takes us 15 hrs! Not 15 minutes, and so on, until our eyes are bleeding, our patience has run away somewhere, were having trouble with our day job, our friends think were a foolish for trying, and our significant other thinks were having an affair! So what happens? We look at our options; according to Maslows hierarchy of needs and come up with the following: ADDICTIONS: We start to depend on some kind of escape (Alcohol, drugs, food, withdrawing, etc) NECESSITIES OF LIFE: (Physiological needs) Food and shelter, where does food come from? The money we make from working. Where does shelter come from? The money we earn to pay the rent/mortgage. So do we quit the day job? No way! Thats the only thing keeping us alive! Forget the rest of our needs! If we cant meet these first two needs we wont even attempt to obtain other lofty ideals. SO WHAT HAS TO HAPPEN in order to ensure we meet the second need? The biggest thing (in our minds) thats holding us back from obtaining THE NECESSITIES OF LIFE, it takes from the money we earn to buy food, it threatens our day job, it also threatens those higher ideals of relationships and belonging. So we make the decision (because we always have a choice, more on that another time) without even consciously thinking about it! THE INTERNET! Its the evil thing stopping us from being able to survive! IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM! Where did it start? It started to become a problem when we spent too much time trying to fix the dam HTML, in the banner or email redirect or image insertion! SO HOW CAN WE ENSURE SUCCESS? ANSWER: Manage our time, and learn some basic html script insertion tricks. To make changes to a web page you need an html composer.
