Way back in the days when I was about to get enlisted into the army (it’s a conscript army here in Singapore), I was sent for a Divers unit for an interview.

Interesting because I thought… those who can swim go commando, those who can’t go divers – since they’re already natural divers.And I pretty much sink to the bottom when I hit water.

Anyway, here in Singapore, the 2 toughest units would most likely be the Divers and the Commandos. Thinking back now, I was pretty insane to want to get into the Divers. No, scratch that… I was VERY insane to think I can do it there.

Being the kind of “I’m up for a challenge” person, I almost never use my brain properly when I’m challenged (note to self: God gave me a brain for a reason, please use it properly or He’ll ask me why I didn’t use it when I meet Him due to stupidity).

Eventually, I got into the artillery unit and life’s been great during my year plus stint there.

The goal for most dudes is to get through their National Service and move on to doing what they want to do. Point is – there’s a goal even during the “glory” days.

Now that I’ve finished it and have ventured into the world of self-discovery, I made it a point to go deeper into the world of Internet Marketing. And the goal was… I wanted to create my own product, have my own affiliates, call the shots and do it all by myself… just to say that if I can do it all alone, anyone can.

… Insane.

I realized I was setting up myself for a whole lot of pain just like I was going to when I thought I should join the Divers.

Why should I place myself through the same headache again? Simple… because people said it can’t be done and I wanted to prove them wrong. No one told it to me and no one challenged me, I simply challenged myself. It’s a good thing I’ve got “lazy” friends who make money online the easy-er way.

And it was really just only recently when I spoke with a friend. I told him about how I wanted to create an amazing product which I can call my own just simply because I wanted something of my own. Then I realized how stupid that sounded and how ignorant I was.

Quickly after I finished my chat with him, I made up my mind to stop being stupid and foolhardy.

Not to say there are no benefits to doing it the hard way, I’m sure there are. But do I have the time to do it all by myself? Yes. Do I want to? Based on my past recorded results from the last 2 months… my mind wants to do it but the results are shouting a loud “I told you it ain’t gonna work”

Results don’t lie.

And so, I’m going to do what I should have done a long time ago – making money easily. And when I get the results I got from there, I’ll go onto other things. I’ve just been setting up myself for problems, without knowing it.

I’m gonna use affiliate marketing and thank God, there’s a challenge for affiliate marketing coming up which I’m taking.

In the coming months, I’ll make it a habit to get back into writing and taking action on the things I have learned. Nothing works unless I do. It’s a great thing I found a product which I can be proud of becoming an affiliate for. It’s a high priced product, has got mindset training and very good internet marketing training – all of which was something I wanted to have as my own product.

But now that someone has already done all the hard work, I’m going to make use of it and apply the best thing about affiliate marketing… leveraging on someone else’s hard work and making money for myself.

Go!
