FROM MY WORLD

There’s No Magical “You’re Ready” Moment

Let me ask you something bold—do you feel like you belong here, in the world of online business? Like you’re truly one of us?

You might be reading this thinking, Igor, I love the idea of making money online, but am I even cut out for this?

Trust me—I know that feeling all too well. There was a time when I didn’t feel like I belonged in any world, let alone in the world of online marketing.

See, when I moved from Ukraine to Israel in my early teens, I was the ultimate misfit. I had a thick accent, I was a chubby kid, and the local kids didn’t exactly roll out the welcome wagon. 

Socially, it was a rough landing, but that’s when I stumbled into the world of online gaming. 

In that digital world, people didn’t care about my accent or my background; it was all about what was between my ears, about what I could do. Suddenly, I’d found a tribe where I could belong—without changing a single thing about myself.

Fast forward a few years, and I found myself diving into online marketing with that same curiosity. I’d spend hours studying the legends—Frank Kern, Russell Brunson, Jeff Walker, the entire list of “internet boys.” 

I admired them, envied them, dreamed of being like them, but at the same time, I didn’t believe I could be like them. I was on the outside, looking in.

For three years, I hovered in that uncomfortable gray area, earning a little money here and there but never feeling like I belonged. It wasn’t until I hit that $10,000 per month mark that things shifted. 

One day, I realized something shocking: I had more in common with the Frank Kerns and Russell Brunsons of the world than with the people I’d see every day at the grocery store or on the street. 

And it hit me—I was one of the “internet people.” I had, slowly but surely, crossed over. But you know the wild part? 

I never got a certificate saying, “Congratulations, Igor! You’re now qualified to be an online marketer.”

No one hands you permission in this game. There is no magical “you’re ready” moment.

The turning point for me was realizing that self-permission is the only kind that matters. You don’t need some guru to tap you on the shoulder and say, “You’re one of us now.” The more you wait around for that moment, the more you delay your success. 

And let’s be honest: waiting for approval will keep you on the sidelines forever.

So if you’ve been waiting for that nudge, this is it. Give yourself permission to be “one of us” today—not because you’ve reached a certain income goal or achieved some arbitrary milestone, but because you’re ready to act like you belong.

Let’s make it happen, one step at a time.

MINDSET MAKEOVER

The Blame-Free Guide to Getting Exactly What You Want

Here’s a simple question that could change everything for you: Are you setting goals that let you off the hook?

Most of us set what I’d call “soft goals” that give us room to fail—just a general direction to aim at. And you know what? They make sure we land somewhere, but never exactly where we want. 

When I started out, I had goals. I wanted to earn online, maybe six figures, maybe more. But these vague ambitions gave me tons of wiggle room to fail, and that meant I wasn’t really on the hook for hitting any specific milestone.

It wasn’t until I started setting specific and big goals that things took off. Goals so clear that if I missed, I’d know immediately. Just like a GPS system that needs precise coordinates, our internal GPS can’t get us anywhere specific without a clear, locked-in destination. Imagine telling a GPS, “Just take me to somewhere in Texas.” You’d end up lost and frustrated, which is where many people stay in business.

But here’s the kicker—goal clarity is only half of it.

After you set a specific goal, you’ve got to make a choice. Are you going to let your goal own you, or are you going to let excuses keep getting in the way?

Most people don’t reach their goals because they avoid the tough decisions. 

It’s easier to say, That course didn’t work, than to admit we never went beyond the first video or failed to even set up an account. We avoid looking too closely at our own habits. 

But the real breakthrough happens when we quit the blame game and start treating every missed goal as a chance to take back control.

Strip away the excuses, and here’s what’s left: personal responsibility. Painful? Maybe. But it’s the fast track to real progress. The moment hitting your target becomes more important than blaming someone (or something) else is the moment you start to gain ground.

So, if you’re ready to drop the “general goals” and set something real, start by asking yourself: “What’s one specific thing I want to achieve, and am I willing to strip away every excuse and go after it?”
