I don't know if it's fear but a lot of what you guys are saying is going right over my head. I didn't understand a lot of what CatMan was saying but I'll re-read the post tomorrow (it's 12 am right now over here).
I guess my biggest thing is self doubt. I mean sure, I've done ok in sales but I'm not a master, and I haven't made a ton of money, so that fact makes me doubt how good a book I could really write. Everything else is like that too.
You don't need to be a master. You don't even need to have generated that much money. How much money have you made in a given month? $2000? Okay -- that's your product: How I Made $2000 Making Door to Door Sales. You gotta remember, there's someone out there that's struggling to make $500 in sales. So, that person is wondering, htf do I crack this $500 barrier? What am I doing wrong?
All you gotta do is compile your insights -- what did you do on your good days? What did you do on your bad days? And then, give some actionable advice. Sell it for $7 - $12 and build your e-mail list from that. Then, start promoting affiliate offers from the same niche.
I've been studying wealth and wealth generation pretty significantly this year and out of all the books I've read, all the people I talk to, they all say the same thing: Wealth is not an event, it's a process. It's not something that just happens. It's something that is built and crafted -- and it begins with you. Everyone thinks they need that "one thing" to become wealthy, it's not true. It's a bunch of little things, building momentum until you strike. And that's what holds a lot of people back. They get stuck on: "Okay, after I release this first product, what's next?" What you'll find is that it becomes an intuitive process. I have a general roadmap -- templates of potential products. But, I don't know the EXACT product I'm releasing ... 4 months from now. I have an idea, but I want that process to remain malleable.
Remember, the more you do something, the higher your probability of success. And that's apparently one of the keys to wealth -- probability manipulation (and not in the mental alchemy / magickal sense, although technically, it is one) through process.
But, your first idea: reviewing products for affiliate links? Start with that. Just buy a domain, grab some hosting (hit me up for recommendations and the such), throw up a basic site and start writing. Then keep building.
