We always hear that only 5% of the people who try to make a living online succeed. Have you ever wondered why that is? It’s because of the person’s mindset.
Mindset Changes You Must Make to Succeed Online
Your mindset directly impacts your success (or lack of success). Before starting an online business, I want to ensure you are in the proper mindset.
In this post, I will go through 5 mindset changes you need to make to succeed online.
1: Believe You Can Succeed And You Will
Let me ask you something. Do you believe you will succeed? Think about that for a second. Do you truly believe you will succeed?
I can guarantee you the top 5% are the ones who believe in themselves, and the other 95% end up giving up because they stopped believing.
This was one of the greatest mindset changes I had to make. I wouldn’t be successful today if I didn’t believe in myself. Like many others, I would have given up after the first Google algorithm change. But I didn’t give up. Why?
Because I believed in myself, I am not saying you need to be more like me. I am saying that because I want you to see that you determine your future.
If you believe in yourself and take action, you will be part of the top 5%. If you don’t believe in yourself, that will lead to a lack of action and there’s a good chance you will give up before you can succeed.
2: Think Big and make it happen
I want you to be a big thinker. I want you to set big goals and not stop until you reach them.
Too many people decide to settle for good enough. I want you guys to go above and beyond good enough. I want every one of you to reach for the stars. So to speak.
Thinking big is different for each one. Thinking big could mean making $100 a day if you’re starting.
For intermediate marketers, it could mean $10000 per month; for others, it could be $ 100000 per month. Just pick a big goal and start acting on it.
3: Change Your Attitude
Okay, now you know to believe in yourself and think big. The next step is to change your attitude.
I can bet that at some point on your online journey, you will hit a block, you will send an email and no one opens it, you can spend a day writing a great blog post, and no one reads it, you spend $500 on ads, and you make zero sales.
Get what bad things happen to all of us, do not allow yourself to get upset over it, do not quit, take it as a lesson, and learn from it.
If you have this attitude, you will surely make it to the elite group of 5 % who make most of the money online.
4: Put Your Goals On Paper
Setting goals is one of the most important actions to make your full-time income online.
I will spare you all the statistics and studies, but it has been proven that those who set goals and WRITE THEM DOWN are much more likely to hit those goals.
So before you move on, I want you to get a piece of paper and a pen and write down your goals.
Don’t just say I want to make $100 per day, but you need to write down how it will make you feel and what you can do about it; you need to attach emotions to it.
When you read your goals out loud every single day, multiple times per day, you start to believe you can achieve them, and as you already know, belief is the key to success.
Alright, now that you have your goals on paper and are going to read them out loud multiple times each day, and now that you truly believe deep down in your heart that you are going to reach those goals, it’s time to move on to the stuff you have all been waiting for. It’s time to start building that list!
If you want to learn more about goal setting, I recommend reading a book by Brian Tracy called Goals.

5 Action Action Action
Those who take action on what they learn will succeed. Those who don’t won’t succeed. I just got done talking about how you can’t view your failures as failures. Well, I take that statement back. You can fail if you don’t take action.
You can have all the knowledge in the world, but it doesn’t matter how much you know if you don’t apply what you learn.
Please take action every day. No matter how busy I am, I find at least one hour to work on my internet business every day. Even if that means I have to wake up an hour early, I finish it.
The problem is that most people who start online businesses are used to having someone to force them to take action, and you will need mindset changes to overcome that.
Final words
That is it, and those are the five mindset changes you need to make to succeed in online business.
You can change your mindset by reading business books, personal development books, and blogs and watching videos on those topics.
You can dedicate 30 to 60 minutes daily to reading something that will feed your mind.
