Yanik Silver on Commitment

Check out a quickie link to a very smart article by Yanik Silver, one of the smartest Internet Marketers out there.

The article that caught my eye is called
Three Inner Secrets of Internet Success, the three principles being:

  • cheerful expectancy
  • do one proactive thing a day
  • decision
It is all good stuff, but the last one strikes me as the most important thing of all, as it sets everything in motion. Be it Internet Marketing, business in general or life itself.

True decision is really the same thing as.. ta da, commitment! One of the cornerstones of the Lazy Way to Success. Now, commitment may sound to you like hard work and restricting yourself. Most people feel that way and rarely REALLY make any decisions, and let other people or life circumstances make the decisions for them.

In truth, true decision or commitment is the ultimate relief! Put it to use and you will quickly find that it is the real antidote to hard, unforgiving work. Just make up your mind for good and things start to happen!

Commit to something worthy and believable to the degree that you cannot draw back your decision even if you wanted to, and you will find the world conspiring to help you make it true!
