The story goes something like this.

A young protege meets his mentor for a millionaire for the 100th time. And on this occasion the young protege is more frantic than usual.

Protege: “Master, I’ve followed all your steps, I’ve read everything and tried to do everything you said. Why am I not a millionaire like you? Is there something you are not telling me?”

Master Millionaire: “What is it you have done so far? I’ve shared everything there is to know to be far wealthier than I am.”

P: “I have 27 projects going all built on your principles and none of them are doing well? You’ve lied to me, you’ve tricked me out of my time and resources.”

MM: “The only trick that’s happened young protege is you tricking yourself out of your riches. There is now way you can be wealthy if you do not FOCUS on one @ a time!”

P: “But you have multiple resources, you are hiding your true secrets!”

MM: “No I’ve built each, 1 @ a time, on it’s own stable footing! You seem to be missing the real lessons of focusing your energies properly into one great project.”

P: “You’re obviously not telling me everything I need to know, there must be more to this!”

It’s funny I’m at an internet marketing conference and all the young apprentices sound just like the Protege. The masters are here telling them exactly what they did to become wealth. However the young apprentices are looking at them in bewilderment, waiting for some magic pill, when all they have to do is focus on the basic principles in order to become wealthy on the internet.

What’s your focus?
