Good stuff Josh. I left the Army in 1974 and my weight was 135lbs. Now at 61 years old it’s at 150. Weight was never a problem for me. Probably in the genes! Anyway I try to add workout time in-between posts and work. It helps with concentration and lethargic days.

Great Blog. I can make the connection between losing weight and making money. Both can be hard for some people, and easy for others, and I can vouch for both sides! Been there, done that, got the T shirt.
With anything, whether it is loosing weight or making money, you have to have a plan and stick with it. And of course I am doing both, losing weight and making money LOL

Wonderful post! At first you had me thinking you had deviated into the weight loss niche. LMAO

True on all accounts. Nothing comes from nothing, nobody knows better than I do.

Great Blog, thanks

I like your logic, and it definitely makes sense. If you have the determination to lose weight, you should be able to muster up the same determination to do what it takes to make money online

Haha.. an interesting perspective on making money online! I like it though. Analogies are great. I think I was starting to get overwhelmed by the number of different ways to make money online, but since I’ve already decided which way I prefer, maybe I should just focus on that and forget about the rest for now. Thanks for the tip.

Hey Josh,

Great post and great comparison. I’m glad that you mention that it is not all that simple to make money for most people. It really is like losing weight; you have to work hard for it and you have to be persistant.
The biggest mistake in losing weight and in making money online is still giving up. And because so many people pretend that it is easily done; losing 10 pounds a week or earning a much higher figure in the same period.

Yet, I think it is still easier to lose money online and put on some weight while you’re behind the computer.

Keep up the good work!

Certainly, those 2 of the simplest advice but not practised often enough. Great post – love the analogy, Josh!

Hi Josh – this is a great post and a brilliant comparison. I have put on a whole heap of weight – I didn’t even care at first because I was too thin.

But it’s great the way you have compared dieting with business. And you are right – a lo of people are looking for a quick fix in both cases and neither is long lasting.

And it’s so much easier to lose weight through exercise than starving yourself – just the same as it’s so much easier to build a business the right way, slowly and learning by your mistakes as you go, than buying into every scam that you see.

Thanks

Catherine
