We all get them now and then, don't we?

This came from the Admin of a Traffic Exchange I use frequently, eTrafficFreedom, Perry O. (so thank-you for the inspiration for this post).
In the email, Perry used a quote from Thomas A. Edison.

“I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.”

I'm sure we've all felt like a failure at some of things we've tried, particularly within the field of online marketing. What often seems to work for one person won't necessarily work for you, me or anyone else. We  all have great expectations of immediate success but it rarely works that way, success is achieved with a lot of hard work and effort, and yes, even a few wrong turns on the way.

What you do when you make a wrong turn, ultimately shapes you as a person, can refocus you to the task(s) ahead and get you back on the right track again.

So instead of thinking you're failure if you dont get the results you expected or wanted, dont fret about it - try something different, and keep on trying. After all, whats the worse that could happen - you find something else that doesn't quite work, or just maybe you come across the solution that DOES WORK!!!!

To finish i'll leave you with another quote from Edison :

"I never did a day's work in my life. It was all fun."
