In United States, pursuit of happiness is a god-given right and Americans have a document to prove it. But I wonder why Founding Fathers deliberately phrased it, ‘the pursuit of happiness’, as if to say --- happiness in itself cannot be granted because it was, and still remains, tied to materialism. In “pursuit” of happiness, it is each person’s own definition: riches, health, religion, etc.

Take, as an example, pessimist and optimist. If anything bad happens, pessimist believes it will not last long but will surely undermine his life. He feels deck is stacked against him, yet being more realistic than optimist, he prepares himself for misfortune.

The optimist regards it as a temporary setback and goes about removing obstacle. He risks more but these efforts give meaning to his life and he makes best of it. To acquire is to be happy (so culture teaches) therefore blessed are they for among them are corporate executives in their mansions.

There is enough on subject of happiness to fill an ebook, but let’s measure just one facet: Internet. How much would it take to make you a happy Interneter? Has your ‘big break’ eluded you thus far? What kind of Internet success would give you a sense of control over your life – because when you think about it, “control over your life” is a huge slice of happiness.

Where else can you start a business for such a small investment? Where else can make money even if you do not have a product or service of your own as you can on Internet through promoting affiliate programs?

You can buy resale rights to a product that some one else created and sell it over and over and keep 100% of profits. These types of money making opportunities have never been available before in history to average person working out of their home.

It would seem that it is impossible NOT to make money, right? I'll answer that question by saying, if something sounds too good to be true it probably is. You see reason that so many would be entrepreneurs never make money with their on-line businesses is because they are being sold an unrealistic expectation of success.

You will begin to make money on-line when you realize that you are not going to find any magic solution hidden in virtual pages of some ebook.

Yes you need to learn from best information that you can find but key to your success will be solely based on your ability to mold what you have learned into your own unique product and conviction in what you are doing to refuse to quit if buyers are scarce at first.

No matter how great potential of Internet is, unless you are willing to work and work hard in beginning with very little to show for it, unless you count frustration as a perk you will never see returns that sales pages seduce you with.
