Everyone knows the world-famous bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger, “Austrian Oak, Arnie, The Governator.” There are many names that you can call him.
What has Arnie to do with internet marketing and making money online?
Keep on reading and you’ll find out!
(I don’t agree with Arnie on everything but this wisdom I agree with him.)
While Others Are Partying…
As you may already know, you can make $10,000, $20,000 or even $100,000/month online. That’s 100% possible for anyone but still, you must remember that you will never make those amounts of money if you are not willing to work your butt off.
I am not teaching you some “get-rich-schemes” but something more reliable.
In one of his famous speeches called 6 Rules of Success Arnold said that it’s okay to have fun in life. It’s okay to have a little party every now and then.
BUT.
The story doesn’t end there.
“But when you’re out there partying, horsing around, someone out there at the same time is working hard. Someone is getting smarter and someone is winning. Just remember that.” -Arnie
We See Their Glory But Don’t Understand the Story
It’s easy to look someone who has an online business making him $100,000/month and think, “He was just lucky. He was in the right place at the right time.” First of all, I don’t believe in luck.
He might have been in the right place at the right time but if someone makes hundreds of thousands online it means that they have worked their butt off. There is no other way around. (Well, at least if we are speaking about honest ways.)
While you have been chatting with your friends or playing online games, internet entrepreneurs have been building their business. They have been making new content, social media marketing or a review about a new product.
Now they are “reaping the harvest“.
You Reap What You Sow
I am not saying that if you want a successful online business, you must totally end all parties, never have fun and spend the rest of your life in the front of the computer. That’s quite far from the truth.
But the point is that results don’t come without work.
If you want the prize, you must pay the price. (Price = work, work and work)
The positive side of all this it that if you are willing to work, you will also reap a good harvest.
As the Bible says, “Whatever a man sows, he will reap in return.”
Even though the Bible wasn’t talking specifically about online businesses, the principle works in everything.
If you sow seeds to your business, you will reap good results in return.
If you sow seeds in honesty, you will reap honest results.
If you sow seeds on your friendships, you will have good and strong friendships.

I think everything good in life requires some effort starting from relationsships to making money. So the quote “You reap what you sow” holds true in many cases.
I really liked this post about internet marketing. You are so right, it takes hard work and time. You cannot “get lucky” and make thousands. You have to do your research, put in some effort and time. Great eye opener for some who think that it is possible to just sit back and watch the money roll in….not going to happen….not without some work.
Hi “Matt’s Mom”,
I’m glad that you liked the post. When people want to make money online, sometimes they make the false assumption that it’s going to be easy and fast. Well, if we are working in a honest way, money will not come so easy and fast. But results will be seen little by little.
Les Brown would say, “Will it be easy? Nooo, It won’t be easy! But it will be worth it!” I hope this motivates you 🙂
