3. Don't expect to be successful overnight. So many people have heard internet success stories and think wealth will come fast and easy. You are starting a business and building a successful business takes time and effort.
I would not discourage anyone from seeking their dream on internet. I never enjoyed going to work for someone else every morning. Be realistic when you start out, don't expect success to just fall in your lap. If you go in with expectations of making a big income your first few months, you are most likely going to be disappointed.
4. Be prepared for change. The internet is ever changing and to be a successful business person on net, you have to be willing to change as well.
You will find techniques that worked last week are antique this week. If you want to be successful working on internet, you must keep up with times. There is a lot of great information out there and I suggest that you devote some time each week to looking to find these new ideas.
Check out other businesses in your field and see what they are doing. Initiate contact with other business owners in your field. You may not only learn something new but joint ventures are one of most succesful means of doing business on net.
The internet is a great place to work. If you make that decision to venture out into cyberspace as a means of earning an income, take some time and find something you like. Create good work habits, don't have unreasonable expectations and be willing to change.
These things alone are no guarentee you will be a success but it is at least a good road to start down.
