This is Part Two of a two-part interview with Dorie Clark, our FIRST ever guest. I had the chance recently to interview Dorie, whose new book, Entrepreneurial You, was just released.

What really separates people who succeed with their online businesses and those who don't? It's actually the same thing that separates the middle class from millionaires. There are VERY distinct differences between the two groups that I share today.

If you want to be successful with your online business, you need to forget everything you learned in school. Traditional schooling falls into one of two camps that I talk about today...and both are wrong. In today's episode, you'll learn why you need to forget the well-intentioned, but wrong lessons you learned from school.

One of our awesome No Product No Problem VIP students asked this question recently: "Productivity question: With all the aff programs one subscribes to, how do you keep track of everything without having to login to the various portals every time? I mean: checking if you've received commissions, clicks, etc..." In other words, is there an easy way to keep track of everything? Here's my answer.

I'll cut right to the chase...we're dropping the "Daily" from the "The Affiliate Guy Daily." We've learned that people need more time to implement what they learn and one of the ways we can help YOU better is to produce a bit less content and give you time to put things into action. It starts with a reduction in episodes. Listen up for more on why we made this change.

I recently got a question from a member of one of our workshops. She asked: "How do I know if I am ready to bring on affiliates? This launch? My next one?" I love this question because it shows she isn't just looking for a quick buck and knows there is a right time and a wrong time to bring on affiliates.

What holds most people back from selling affiliate offers better? For most people, it's FEAR. Yesterday, I talked about the gender gap in affiliate marketing and how to close it. In it, I share studies about the differences in men and women's salaries. The biggest difference is women are afraid to ASK for more money. The same is true for selling. But this fear applies to all of us, men and women. It holds us back from selling with confidence.

If you've followed affiliate marketing for long enough, you'll notice that most of the people at the top of leaderboards are male. I'm a dude and I love playing "Battle of the Sexes" games as much as the next guy, but I think there is something wrong with that.

If you've ever doubted that you can be successful with your online business, this episode is for you. If you've watched others launch their business or product and thought, "that will never be me," this episode is for you. Today, I'll share why I KNOW you'll be successful with your online business. At one time or another, we all have doubts. We think that we don't have enough experience. Or that we have the wrong kind. We think that our platform is too small. Or that the costs are too high. We tell ourselves, "I'm not like so-and-so." We tell ourselves that we aren't interesting enough or that we aren't skilled enough. We prevent ourselves from taking the steps we need to take to be successful. In short, we lie to ourselves and cripple ourselves. Lynda J. Keagan wrote to me recently with this: I am the founder of Journal Writers, the largest journaling community on Google+. For a couple of years, I wasn't doing much. Mostly because I was afraid of success. It seemed intimidating to me. I have conquered my fears, and now I'm doing my best to go full force in offering my creative services. I responded back to her and as I often do, I knew that more people were struggling with that same fear, doubts and intimidation. I knew that many others were downplaying their own experiences, successes, and abilities, just like Lynda was. Key Takeaways To overcome the doubts preventing you from succeeding in your online business: 1. Look to your past. You have more skills, experiences, and abilities than you give yourself credit for. 2. Give yourself credit for starting. The reality is that 99.9% of people will never get their first email subscriber. They will never write their first book. They will never record their first video. Take a moment to acknowledge the progress you've already made. You started and that is more than most people will ever do. 3. Don't compare yourself to others. I didn't mention this in the video, but the biggest mistake you can make is to compare your beginning or middle to someone else's polished end. I love what Steven Furtick says about this insecurity: The reason we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our behind-the-scenes with everyone else's highlight reel. Focus on your own race and run it your way. You'll get to your finish line soon enough.

I've been getting a lot of questions lately about how to get past failure. Failure in a promotion, failure in business, failure in all kinds of things.

Today, I'll share how successful people bounce back from failure and how you can, too.
