Understand from the very start that there is NO -
"easy,free,guaranteed,no-work,make-money-overnight,succeed-without-trying,foolproof,can't-miss" method in this (or any) biz.
Anyone CAN succeed - just be willing to listen, and if you don't understand what that person is saying - ask again and again until you do understand
some of us are still asking and listening each and every day - and I believe that those that do are the most successful over the years.
