If there is a single factor that far outweighs the significance of the others to determine the outcome of your online business, it is motivation. The nature of an online business allows you the liberty of working without targets and a demonic employer looking over your shoulder. In such an informal atmosphere it is easy to lose focus and lack discipline. The only thing that sustains your interest in an online business is your desire to make good money and achieve your personal and business goals. Self-motivation alone is the orbit around which all other factors are revolving. Whenever the going gets tough, it is nothing but your motivation that is going to help you work with single-minded dedication.
To quote a wise adage fittingly expressed "When you know what you want, and you want it badly enough, you'll find a way to get it"
If you have a Ferrari and a road map as well but don't know where you want to head, will you get to your destination? There are hardly any chances that you ever will and you don't have to be Einstein to figure that out. Your goals and objectives are the underpinning for an online business that withers all storms and emerges unscathed. Focus is the key to establishing an online venture that proves to be a super source of income in the long haul. There are numerous phases in an online business venture when your business could hit the wall and there's no productivity happening. In such a scenario the only thing that will help you endure the disastrous onslaught is self-motivation.
You are an independent business entity, functioning without any rigid company policies. An online business venture may not have any superiors or organizational training staff guiding you to stay in the right direction. The only thing that will help you stay on the track consistently and patiently till you achieve the desired results is that new house you want to purchase for your spouse or the brand new sports bike you want to gift your son. There may be other intrinsic, non-materialistic motivational factors like appreciation, achievement and a rush of experiencing success that may drive you. Reinforce your goals by writing and visualizing them periodically. Have a vision board or scrap book where you put up a collage of all the things that motivate you and keep looking at them to combat fluctuating commitment levels.
