Sick and tired of whiners and complainers …

I’m going to use this blog as my outlet from time to time, to blow off a little steam …

A few days ago I offered a discount to our autoresponder at Email Aces and we had a few people take us up on it.

We had a few people sign up, and start using the system right away, and a few who dove right in and gave up even faster.

It’s too hard.

I don’t understand.

It’s confusing.

Those are the types of things the people who cancelled said … and they said them after trying for a whole 5 minutes.

Honestly, one person signed up, logged in, and cancelled in under 5 minutes.

All I could think is … Wow, you tried it for a whole 5 minutes and gave up, what a whiner.

I have no doubt that this person is never going to make it online. They just don’t have what it takes.

If you give up on everything you don’t instantly understand, why bother trying anything?

I know this is probably not the motivational post that some of you expected to see here on my blog, but you’re going to get it all here … the good .. the bad … and the ugly.

It takes time to learn new things, more than 5 minutes, and if you’re not willing to put in the time to learn new things, you should get out of the dream world you’re living in right now and find a $6.00 an hour job washing dishes somewhere …

Wait … maybe not, there’s a chance that the dishwashing machine might have more than two buttons so you better not do that either … it might be too hard for you too ;-)

I know this kind of stuff shouldn’t still get to me after almost 7 years of working online, but it does.

I’m tired of the whiners and complainers brining down the entire industry … claiming it can’t be done, that there isn’t any money to be made online.

The truth of the matter is that some people can’t do it, not because it can’t be done, but because they give up too quickly, blame everyone but themselves, and then whine about it to anyone who will listen.
