One of the best ways for internet marketers to get motivated is to read about others who have had success in your field. The reason for this is that reading about other people who are successful will make their goals and stories seem more real to you.
There’s another good reason to read about other people’s successes. If you’re like most people, you can visualize yourself being successful, but along the way, you probably have a harder time visualizing how you will overcome all of the challenges along the way. Reading about how others faced challenges and overcame them will help you to see how you can do it, too.

I totally agree with this. You can read as well as surround yourself with successful people. As they say, “birds of the same feather, flock together.” I say, it’s true.
There is no doubt about this — I have seen it too many times. The challenge is breaking away from the people that are bringing you down and surrounding yourself with success.
You are right, this is definitely true Andrew. “motivation + teamwork = Success.”
Mark,
I always stop and read motivational stories, quotes or what-have-you no matter where I am — online surfing, in a book store and even fortune cookies.
If I am not on top of my game, it raises me.
If I am, it keeps me there.
It’s all in the mindset.
Agree – Mindset is key. Mindset + hard work is almost always unstoppable.
Thanks for the short-but-sweet advice Mark! I agree that inspirational stories can definitely help keep you motivated. I remember a long time ago before I was making ANY money online, there was an article on Steve Pavlina’s blog about making money from blogging that I’d read whenever I needed some motivation… and it usually worked!
I also learned that this is true for other people because when my guest post went live on Yaro Starak’s Entrepreneurs-Journey.com–which was a case-study of how I got started and what I did that finally worked–people posted lots of comments thanking me for the inspiration.
Thanks again Mark!
Totally agree — I love case-study blogs. And they are great for traffic if you are the blog/study author.
