Accepting Answers and Finding Comfort

<h1>Accepting Answers and Finding Comfort - Even While Marketing</h1>Author: <a title="Michael J Taylor" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/michael-j-taylor/27993.htm">Michael J Taylor</a> It’s all too easy to get caught up in problems; to get distracted from one’s own definite major purpose; to “lose the plot”! And nowhere is this easier than at my computer on the Internet. I mean it’s not called “the Web” for nothing and if you’re not the spider you just might find that you’re the fly, getting caught and sucked dry!

Recently I unsubscribed from a number of email lists. I couldn’t even remember joining some of them but I understood one thing: I don’t have an issue with the authors or their programs, the issue was with me. It has to do with round pegs, square holes, glass slippers and horses for courses.

During a period of panic, when my business was going nowhere due to technical issues that I couldn’t control, I joined a few online business opportunity and training programs. I didn’t make any money from most of them but they’re not to blame for that. I did learn some good stuff about marketing and in particular internet marketing, from each program or newsletter but I just can’t complete something if my heart isn’t into it.

I was like the fly buzzing around looking for goodness knows what – a quick fix really – and it was inevitable that I’d get caught. I needed to settle down and learn to spin my own web – to create my own home in this new environment of internet marketing and home based business. I needed to see my own path. What do I uniquely have to offer? What am I learning that I can share? What are my talents and opportunities? Once clarity starts to return the fog of questions and doubt clears.

And clarity is with me all the time. All the teachers and their books can possibly teach me I already know or it already exists. I’ve learned a lot and have plenty more to learn in every aspect of my life. There are so many great teachers and mentors ready to help and guide me and the ones that I’ll follow are those that echo my own voice – after all that’s the voice I hear when I read their text.

The greatest teacher in my life has never sold me a single book, e-book, video or seminar, but just consistently held up a mirror: “this is who you are and that’s more than the sum of all your good and bad…” Once I see and feel myself again the next step is clear and I can get on with it with Gratitude in my heart. That’s the way I love to live.
