Why is it we always associate making money on eBay and with business generally with hard work and subsequently something we shouldn't enjoy? So many people believe it is not possible to do something you really enjoy and make money at the same time.

I have noticed the cynical attitude of people with regards to the thought of having a good time. People believe they should feel almost guilty if what they do to make money is enjoyable and they should stop doing it and get real job.

But I notice that people who do make money on the net on the whole have a lot of fun doing it especially those that make a lot of money.

When you speak to the experts it is apparent that the concept of work is a drag, as something serious that you need to take a break from, is foreign to them.

The vast majority of people have since childhood been told that they must work their butts off until retirement. Then if they are lucky and have worked hard can retire maybe with just enough to live on until they die.

It seems that those who know how to play make more money than those who make a strict separation between what they do to earn a living and what they do to live it.

Lets for example take the idea of making some serious money on eBay.

There are a majority of people on the net that fall in to one of two categories: First there are those that believe that the intracies of eBay is beyond them and they will need some sort of gift from god to run any kind of business.The second group are not much different believing that they would never be able to competete against so many other people. The net result is the same both types they either fail or give up (assuming they even started).

The biggest challenge I find with coaching people is overcoming this mindset problem. Too many people think business has to be run to very strict rules and guidelines which removes the fun element of being in a virtual business.

Those who make it on eBay have to be creative; they have to be thinking outside the box. And, the thing about seriousness is it's a great big box that people get stuck inside of.

One top internet marketing expert says " People seem to set their sights too high and figure it all needs to be planned out before starting"

Having spoken to a number of highly successful players on eBay the one thing they all said about newbies was they feel intimidated when they start to think of the millions of dollars some people are already making on eBay. Their first reaction is one of excitement the second one of sheer terror.

But the most important thing is just to start the ball rolling. There is nothing wrong with thinking big but be happy to start small, then build to a bigger business step by step as you go.

So don't stress just get out there and start having some fun on eBay and who knows you might be suprised at how easy making money and having fun as well can be?
