Why Do You Need An Internet Business Mentor?

by: Sara Coltan

Would you rather be a slave to your business, or have the freedom to do whatever you want with your time? If you are like most people who want to make money online, the answer is obvious...

So when you imagine your ideal Internet business, do you see yourself taxed by a never ending to-do list? In my experience, most people see themselves raveling the world rather than being stuck running all aspects of their online businesses themselves.

So if you have an internet business, why are you putting off taking steps to remove yourself from those day-to-day activities that are wasting your time?

Why do you not get a handle on those aspects of your business that you find yourself executing from one week to the next or one day after the other?

What prevents you from examining what you do and listing those activities so that you can transform them into business procedures?

What is preventing you from combining common and necessary tasks and turning them into systems that others can execute for you?

Is fear holding you back? Many have walked over coals and have gotten over worse fears. Plenty of people get over phobias every day.

Would you believe the one of the biggest fears people have is the fear of succeeding? Are you afraid of succeeding?

Whatever your fear, you can overcome it. It is all in your head. Challenge your assumptions. Look at beliefs that are holding you back and that are keeping you from your dreams.

Is it boredom? Maybe that's a clue you really should outsource certain activities, because even though they might be necessary to your business, these activities do not get you jazzed up and simply are not a good use of your time.

Is uncertainty paralyzing you? Maybe you are not exactly sure what you should systematize, automate or outsource. I believe action is better than no action. One of my mentors told me about a niche site he set up. He had a ghostwriter author fifty autoresponders for him. It was not world-class copywriting by a long shot, but his site did much better than competitors who had no autoresponder series at all.

So you make mistakes... so what? If you are committed to a process of constant improvement, you know that we learn from our mistakes. Tell that to the perfectionist in you.

As you consider what I've said, think about how much time you are investing in your business. Have you sat down and looked at the things that need to be done on a regular basis to see your business thrive... eventually without you?

Are you doing these activities, either by performing them yourself or by having someone else do them for you?

If this all sounds familiar and feel like you need direction and focus, join an intern program. If you are not sure where to start, sign up to be an intern.
