If you've ever wondered why internet marketing feels like chewing glass while doing a backflip blindfolded, you're not crazy. You’ve just been sold a fantasy.

See, when people first enter this online game, they’re handed this cute little brochure:

But nobody tells you that getting there is more like crawling through broken glass in a thunderstorm… with no GPS.

Here’s the truth I wish someone had told me sooner: 

Internet marketing is not a step-by-step process. It’s a damn jigsaw puzzle — one of those monster 10,000-piece ones with no edge pieces and a picture that doesn’t even make sense until you’re halfway through.

Growing up, we were trained to think in straight lines.
Go to school → Study→ Get good grades → Get a job → Get promoted → Retire.

Everything had a neat pipeline. A beginning. A middle. An end.

And we carried that same broken logic into our business dreams.
So when someone hands us a course or a “proven system,” we expect it to work like school:
Do lesson 1, then lesson 2, then ka-ching, millionaire.

But it doesn’t work like that.

Internet marketing doesn’t reward obedience—it rewards curiosity.

It rewards persistence.
It rewards the people who are willing to look at that puzzle with zero clue where each piece fits, and STILL keep going.

You don't need the whole puzzle figured out to start making money.
You just need enough pieces in place that the picture starts to make some sense.
And once it clicks—man, it clicks hard.

So stop stressing about not having all the answers.
Forget the damn blueprint.
Start collecting pieces.
Messy, random, confusing pieces.

Because that’s the only real way to build a business that’s yours—and the one that lasts…

Sick of pretending a Facebook group is a “community”?

If you want to go full-time online, this is where it actually happens..

Let me drop a hard truth on you…

You can have a level 10 skill set… but if you’re in a level 2 opportunity, you’re screwed.

That’s the difference between being broke with talent and being rich with leverage.

So many people are out here grinding like maniacs—hustling their face off, learning funnels, email copy, ad buying, automation…
And still stuck spinning their wheels.

Why?

It’s like pouring gourmet coffee into a paper cup with a hole in the bottom. No matter how high-quality your grind is, it leaks.

Now here's the kicker…

Discipline is great. Obsession is sexy. But without the right vehicle, you're just flooring it in neutral.

The fix?

Start asking better questions.

That switch alone—from how to who, from grind to growth—is what separates the players from the pros.

You don’t need to work more. You need to work smarter.
And sometimes that means walking away from the thing you’ve poured your heart into because you realize…
You’re trying to make a unicorn out of a donkey.

So the next time your business feels stuck, don’t just double down on tactics.
Zoom out. Ask: “Am I in the right game?”
Because sometimes, a tiny change in direction creates a massive shift in destination.
