When it comes to making money, do you think big or small?

When you are thinking about making money are you concerned with pennies, dollars, or larger sums? Do you think it matters? I believe that attitude effects every aspect of life. My attitude about money is one I want to change. I tend to think small and within limits, but I know that there are limitless possibilities with making money. Lately, I am trying to figure out how I can make my small sums grow. Ultimately, I want my money to work for me and have a comfortable lifestyle.

I try to make small amounts in different ways, rather think I can make a lot of money doing one thing. I can have a good monthly income from a lot of small amounts. If I aim to find one way to pay me a big sum of money I may be disappointed, or I may not have the ability to earn from it. My most important need is for regular and reliable income, and then I can add to it. I don't go with the idea of winning a huge amount of money, and I don't believe in anything that promises to make me rich some day.

I agree with you paid2write. Although I intend to make a large amount of money on the internet, I realize that it will come from various sources. In answer to the original question, I think big. I continue to work towards my first goal of earning $5,000 per month from the internet. It sounds like a lot, but it's not. It can be done, just not over night. A year ago I had the vision that I wanted to replace my part-time job income by working on the internet and making money from home. A year later, I did it. My part time job didn't pay a ton of money, but now I earn more than my part time job paid and I don't have to get in the car and spend money on gas. It's a small accomplishment, but just one on the way to earning big. I'm willing to put in the time and effort to reach the goal. If you dream small, you will reach small goals. If you dream big, you will reach big goals.

I agree with you. If you have small amounts coming from multiple streams you are not relying on just one income to carry you. There is less risk that way, because nothing is a sure thing, even a regular 9-5 job. I have stopped believing in getting rich quick. It is very hard to do that in a completely ethical and legal way.

Everybody must start with pennies and after he can be thinking about bigger sums. Without this step by step your earning program can colapse.

Pennies can surely add up. I'd rather be paid pennies at a time than not at all.

One always has to be realistic and practical while earing money. You cannot earn millions in one day. You have to start on a smaller scale somewhere to make it big someday. Only hard work and sincirety can pay off. ~Pinks~

To be honest, I've yet to actually meet anyone personally that can say they made a good living online...other than the ppl that are peddling their own programs and then they claim to be millionaires. My online money comes from MyLot and it's just money to fill my piggy banks or save up for something that I want. **AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~

Personally I feel that ever penny counts so im happy to make small amounts and do my best to save them until I have a larger amount. Sometimes thinking small at first gets you to a bigger place you want to be

When it comes to making money on the internet, I think big. In my opinion a internet business should bring more than 1000 bugs a month. Thinking depends on out necessities and the things we need and want. It is useless to earn more money when you don't know how to spend it.
