Desperate For Money - Is Affiliate Marketing My Answer?

I have been that person that was desperate for money! Oh what a powerless awful feeling it was. I have been down to no gas, little to no food and no end in sight. You can read about it on my homepage here, or on this site where I talk about how to attract love and money.

There are many out there today that are desperate for money, no doubt. With the turn of the economy, many have suffered lay offs, pay cuts and can’t seem to get it back. They blame the economy. Yes it appears that the economy is in sad shape these last few years, but blaming the economy just won’t serve you nor get you out of this position. I know some that have been looking for a job or a better job for a year or more. I just don’t get it. I find that these people really believe that a job or a better paying job is the only answer. Having that belief that this is the only way sure puts some limits on you and in fact may be what is keeping you desperate for money.

If you find yourself desperate for money more times than not or just not having enough to do what you want, the problem is not actually the lack of money, but your relationship and beliefs around money. When this was suggested to me, I was very very resistant. I was lucky to meet someone who really challenged me on this.

You see there was this program I kept seeing on facebook. It was a 30 day abundance challenge. I was so desperate and I thought, what the hell, I will try it. Thing is, since I was desperate for money, I didn’t feel as if I could afford it. I was having a discussion via email with it’s teacher, Erika and she called me out and yes challenged me. I told her that I couldn’t even afford to eat, let alone fork out $197 for this challenge. Was she crazy? My boyfriend would have a cow. I needed tires worse. You name it, I had an excuse not to do it. Here I learned my first lesson in commitment and why you must commit to something or you will never succeed at it. I discussed the importance of commitment here on my blog post, Commitment is the Key.

So below is how Erika replied to my feeble excuses that felt like genuine reasons to me at the time:

Allowing other people’s opinions to enter in, such as boyfriend, is often yet another way to not take fully responsibility or be fully committed. Plus, keeping agreements is one of the most important principles of this entire system. If you don’t keep your agreements, you will not be a powerful manifestor, no way around it.

So … you can stay in the group until Dec. 7 as I promised, but I will not make any further extensions. This work requires a very high level of commitment to be effective, and being committed begins by putting real money at stake so that everyone has skin in the game (I have invested my entire life in this, quit my stable secure day job so I can help others … I have a LOT of skin in the game and I expect the same from everyone else.)

At first I got very very defensive at this but at last, I began to see her logic. Here is part of my long reply once I had calmed down. I was also very concerned how my boyfriend would take me spending that kind of money seeing as how he had practically supported me for the last 3 months.

I did make a commitment. To be honest, I am scared I can’t keep it. Which is why I need to keep it. I am tired of my fears holding me down. Just typing this brings tears to my eyes. I am tired. I feel so close but I can’t seem to quite step over and that is why I really want to do this. Some of the videos I have watched that you do make me just go aha, and yes I want more of it. I don’t know quite how yet. I really don’t. My guy would do about anything for me, just not sure he will see the value like I do….yet……

Moral here I committed to the program and almost immediately and I kid you not, the money showed up. A product that I had promoted almost a year earlier finally began paying off that very day on clickbank. Yes, I am an affiliate marketer. I was a struggling one desperate for money, but that has changed and the above was just the beginning.

So if you are one of those people that really want to take my affiliate marketing class but “can’t afford $111.00” may I ask when will you be able to afford it and exactly what excuse are you hiding behind? As long as you have excuses you will remain desperate for money. Desperate for money is more of a state of mind than an actual physical reality like you are perceiving it. You see what you focus on is what you get more of. It’s a Universal law of Attraction. If you are focused on how desperate you are, then nothing will manifest into your life to change this.

Another thing to consider about this desperate state of mind is this. Often when we are in this state, our minds are so focused on a solution or some instant gratification that we close ourselves off to other limitless possibilities. I imagine you have thought of what you could sale, or what you could do on the side to earn extra money and the idea of money just showing up in other ways totally eludes you and when this happens, you actually shut off you ability to manifest more.

If you are waiting for something to happen before you take action on anything, not just Pajama Affiliates, you might be waiting a very long time. Manifestation starts when you take the first step, not when you sit back and wait. Had I sat back and waited I shiver to think I might still be an affiliate marketer desperate for money. If you are finacially strapped then may I suggest that money is not the problem but your relationship with money is just down right broken. Fix that and the rest will just fix itself. I would stake my reputation on it!

As far as affiliate marketing being your answer, why yes, if you commit to it, it can be no doubt! If you commit to my program or any good program for that matter, you will reap the results. Commitment again is a key!
