Breakaway and I started Niche Titans to help people make money online and become successful niche marketers. In order to become successful in niche marketing we think it’s critical that you understand how to succeed in life.

Here are 12 reasons why people people fail and understanding them will help you become successful not only in niche marketing but in every aspect of your life.

-+ 12 Reasons People Fail and are Less Successful +-

1. They never define what wealthy means to them.
- How much money do you need you live the lifestyle you desire?

2. Their goals aren’t really goals but a moving target they’ll never hit.
- This is what I need to do, this too, this too, oh and this too. Too many goals.

3. Set goals they’ll never hit or impossible to achieve.
- When someone says, “The Sky is the Limit!”, they mean it. The more the better and they’ll never be satisfied.

4. Don’t believe it can be done and never start.
- There is too much competition already. It’ll be too hard to do and I don’t have enough time. I wish I could but I can’t.

5. Don’t make it a must.
- Making it a must is more than just making it a priority. You have to do it and it becomes essential to your survival. Just like food and water.

6. They don’t create a realistic plan.
- They think or assume they can be successful but do no real research or planning. They just start and “wing it” hoping everything works out.

7. Don’t follow through with the plan.
- Why even create a plan for success if you’re not going to follow it? It’s like making a grocery list and not bringing it with you — you’ll probably forget something.

8. Give others responsibility to make things work.
- If you give someone responsibility you need to make sure they’re taking care of things. If they fail – you fail.

9. Give up when facing a difficult challenge.
- When facing a difficult challenge it’s easy to quit. Don’t quit until you achieve your goal.

10. They fail to conduct their life like a business.
- You should be conducting your life like a business. At the end of the year you need to show profit and not debt. A successful business is showing profits at the end of the year and not increased debt.

11. They allow others optimism or pessimism to effect or control their decisions.
- If someone tells you that it’s too late to make money on the internet are you going to believe them? How about if they tell you that you can make $1,000 a day without doing anything and just a little money using the Forex Autopilot software that sells for only $400?
Do your research and make your own decision.

12. No quality coaching.
- In order to effectively realize your own goals and stay motivated, the help of a quality coach or influence is essential to your success. Raising a well mannered child requires great parenting. In this analogy you are the child and your coach is the parent.

Something else to remember:

“The purpose of a goal is not the goal itself but what it makes of you along the way.”
- Tony Robbins.

Hey guys… we try to keep site update posts to a minimum because I hate having tons of site updates from a blog in my RSS reader.

But, Niche Titans has a new newsletter!  It will be a source of tips, tricks, promotions, and product launch announcements!  We have an exciting “newsletter-only” giveaway planned for the near future.  You can subscribe via the bottom of every post and via the sidebar!

We’ve always had an RSS-to-Email option, but that is going to be phased out.  The e-mail signups have already been replaced with the newsletter signups.  Those who were already subscribed via e-mail to our feed, have ALREADY been added to the newsletter, and no further steps are needed.  (If you haven’t yet verified your e-mail subscription, then Aweber did not allow us to move you over to the newsletter.  You will have to subscribe to the newsletter.

Those who were already e-mail subscribers, this will be the only post that you receive twice.  (Just to update you about the changes.)  After this post, we will deactivate the Feedburner e-mail delivery.

Thanks guys for pushing through this site update post, and don’t forget to subscribe to the newsletter!  You will not want to miss the giveaway!  If you’re at all interested in niche marketing, this giveaway will be huge for you!

Twitter Marketing: An Update

Back in December, I started using Twitter for the very first time.  (See: My First Day Using Twitter)  After having purposefully stayed away from Twitter, I realized the huge potential it had.

There have been quite a few tangible and intangible benefits of having created a Twitter account for Niche Titans, and using it to build connections and reach out to more people about niche marketing.

More Relationships
On my first day using Twitter, I was on it like ALL DAY.  But, in that time, I met two very cool people.  One person I have started a series of joint ventures with.  Another person has helped me to learn Twitter marketing better, and he’s cool to bounce ideas off of.

Those are connections I never would have had, and had randomly come across just that day.  I have met some other cool people, found some sweet links I may have never seen, and generally had a good time.

Ryan had a great post a little bit back about the importance of Relationship Marketing.  Twitter has definitely expanded my ability to create good relationships.  These few relationships I have already made I have already started projects with those people.

If you’re new to internet marketing or an old timer, you definitely cannot neglect Twitter.  It is here to stay and a very powerful resource for networking and marketing.

What have been your experiences with Twitter, and using it to build relationships and marketing?
