Here's how to have more with less...

The idea of making *more* money is appealing to *most* everyone.

For the person who doesn't make much, *more* is a necessity.

To the person that does OK, *more* helps them get ahead, and for the rare person that has a bunch, they are always looking for a way to make a bunch *more.*

So when it comes to actually taking action to create more, I believe that less is more.

I used to think the only way to increase my income was to work more hours, more paperwork, more commitments, borrow more money, lose more sleep, and ultimately take more risk.

Then I realized that *less* is indeed *more.*

Owning and operating your own business presents a legitimate method to make more money, but without the headaches and hassles. The ease and convenience of the Internet has created an opportunity anyone can enjoy success with.

However, the choice is ultimately yours.

More or less?

Everyone seems to have one

Have you noticed how everyone on the net has a "secret?"

- "7 secrets to making large profits with your website."
- "The 10 secrets to your success online."
- "Hidden secrets the Internet Gurus are not telling you."
- "The only secrets you need to know to become an Internet millionaire."
- "Secrets to becoming a top affiliate."
- "Secrets to boost your subscriber list by 497% quickly and easily."
- "Secrets to building a fire under your affiliates to create sales."
- "Secrets to writing headlines that make people open up their wallets and grab their credit card."
- "The secret to getting a merchant account for free."
- "The secret to writing sales letters that literally forces people to purchase."

Those were all headlines in my Inbox this week.

Do you suppose that if we could get all of these "secrets" into a single e-book, we could be millionaires overnight!

Here's MY secret...

Roll up your sleeves and get ready to work, because the secret is this: If you think you are going to make a dime selling online without hard work and determination, you are dreaming.

I have been doing this for years and I've put in more hours every day than ever I did with my "real job."

Don't let the shysters suck you in by painting a slick picture of an expensive automobile, or by trying to sell you the idea that you will be logging-in for just 10 minutes a day while you sit at the side of your pool, sipping cocktails.

Phooey. For most of us, that will never happen.

Go into Internet marketing with your eyes wide open -- question everything. Don't believe anything unless you can satisfy yourself that it works.

Question everything -- you might just find, after a few months, that you still have a few bucks in the bank and a credit card balance that doesn't embarrass you.

I am telling you bluntly that for every marketer online who is straight, and trying to make an honest living, there are 100 more who only want your money - they don't give a damn about your problems, needs or budget.

I have been burned so many times online that I am ashamed to let anyone know how dumb I was - I'd rather not mention how many times I found myself falling for sites that manipulated our emotions to make sales.

I was a real patsy, but I got learned fast. (My bank manager insisted.)

We are all looking for an easier life, but few of us will ever find it. They'll more likely find themselves further in debt, if they aren't very careful.
