There’s an excellent business lesson embedded in the phrase
“The Players Gonna Play and The Haters Gonna Hate,” but, what is it
and what does it have to do with Wealthy Affiliate?
This familiar phrase has been around for a while in various forms,
although recently we’ve been shaking it a la Taylor Swift style. I was
moved to write about it particularly for the wisdom nugget Taylor
shares in her grooving application of the undeniable fact: Yes,
”the players gonna play and the haters gonna hate,” but, we have
to keep moving is her message, no matter what they do or say.
Hopefully you’re beginning to see where I’m going with this.
Keeping in line with the theme of this site the message can be stated
in one word: “FOCUS.” To bring it home I’m going to equate players
with distractions and haters with adversity. When there is something
we need to accomplish, when we are going somewhere, these two
will always come up against us, and they will hold us back or bring us
down if we let them. In case you didn’t draw the
business application from the song,
here I present the golden nugget plainly:
You need to shake off the players and
the haters along the path to your financial
goals.
Tune Out The Noise
This is a real lesson for all of us who are
trying to accomplish something,
especially beyond the ranks of
mediocrity, such as
building our own Home Cash Machine,
but, there’s so much on the web and all around us, it’s hard not to
get distracted, and all too often we find ourselves
spinning our wheels and not achieving
our desired outcome because of it.
Incidentally, Swift got sued by R&B singer
Jesse Graham for $42 million over
a portion of her song “Shake It Off” for
presumed copyright infringement, later to
be dismissed by a California judge.
Whether Graham is a player or a hater
I don’t know, but, for now it seems Taylor
Swift is sticking to the principle of her
song and shaking it off. Similarly, to make our
business work we need to be laser-focused, discerning which is
the best path to follow and sticking to it.
What’s Wealthy Affiliate Got To Do With It?
Not much really, except, WA is a top
competitor in the
Internet Marketing education
arena, and as such it is subject
to slandering on behalf of their
unscrupulous contenders. If you have
been exercising your due diligence
regarding WA before committing to an
online program to help you accomplish
your goals and dreams, it is likely you
may have seen such misrepresentative
reviews. The truth is Wealthy Affiliate
offers so much value for less it is
understandable why others charging
more for inferior products are gasping
for air. Even great products get bad
reviews, oftentimes by negative people,
but, when the majority is in favor it is
easy to separate the rotten apples from
the good ones.
Meanwhile, WA and all its members are
shaking off the defamers and naysayers
by continuing to strive for excellence,
yielding as a result the empowerment of
average folks to become successful
online entrepreneurs.
How are Wealthy Affiliates Doing It?
The reason why WA is a leader in the
industry is the fact since 2005 its
founders Kyle and Carson, as well as other top contributors,
have been fine tuning this machine with continual training updates
and platform improvements, making it the best option for all of its
members. In my efforts to promote WA
and help people all around the globe turn
their passions and hobbies into cash, and
improve their finances, I have
emphasized its benefits in various
articles, but, on this occasion I wish
to zero in on its most competitive one:
its economical value.
Check out the following breakdown…
• A TRULY FREE ACCOUNT THAT WORKS
This is a free account like you’ve never seen before; it allows you

Hey I agree with this rich assessment of yours. In truth, life throws many obstacles and distractions in our way, and it is up to us to decide how to deal with these obstacles and distractions.
I know what it is like to be confronted by the Naysayers. This has lead me to believe that being selfish is truly not such a bad thing to be. When it comes down to it, I am going to do what I want with my life, and I am not going to wait for others to either hold me back or catch up.
Great review I’m telling people how to “shake it off” when you or people around you try to distract you from building an online business.
Just like brick and mortar business, an online business works same way where you sell items or services people need.
Thanks for reminding us to stay focused and work hard to achieve lifestyle we want.
You’re welcome Michael, I think it is good advice (LOL).
I agree with you on the seriousness of an online business and what it takes to succeed, although the advantages over a brick and mortar venture should be obvious.
I touch on this subjectt in this article:
The Ease of Making Money from Home: Is it Real?
Sadly, there are still many who don’t see it, or who have a distorted concept of Internet Marketing, in part due to the many scams and get-rich-schemes that plague this industry, but, I’m happy to promote WA as a legitimate and ethical way to learn how to profit online.
Thanks for your comment!
Hey Jacob,
thanks for your comment. The truth is being selfish and focusing on the line of work of your choice are two different things.
If you choose to be selfish it means you would not care about anybody else’s needs and only your gain matters, which will never make you happy regardless how much you earn; but, if you work hard to prosper and care for those around you the resulting benefits would be beyond financial prosperity.
In fact, caring for the needs of others and delivering solutions is the most rewarding way to do business. The reason why I promote Wealthy Affiliate is precisely because I consider it an excellent vehicle for people to solve their financial struggles, and I’m willing to help those who want a financial breakthrough via online marketing.
Unfortunately, there will always be some negative forces working against us and the way to overcome them is sticking to our commitment with tenacity.
Blessings to you!
