No Can't, No Newbie, Success at Last! 
By: Randy - The Hermit - Baustert
Believe it or not, your mindset is more important than any of the knowledge you have. Henry Ford only had very limited formal education, but he had a desire and a mindset that actually forced him to achieve his goals. He is also the one that said, "Whether you think you can or think you can't you're right!"
His drive and determination took him from a non-educated worker to a leader in industry. This is the same type of mindset you need to have to succeed. This is a mindset that doesn't say, can't!
If you are constantly using the word can't you are sure to find failure. You have to believe you can before you can. I like to define can't as:
C= Conveniently.
A= Accepting.
N= Negative.
T= Thoughts
Don't accept negative thought from yourself or anybody else. You are the only one that can give up on your goals and the only one that can accept these thoughts. You will reach your goals but only if you believe you can.
It doesn't mean you can't do something just because you don't know how to do it
Just because no one has done it before doesn't mean you can't do it.
All you need to do to achieve the things you think you can't do is to create a mindset that gives you a burning desire to accomplish you goals. You can do anything you just have to figure out how.
The most common excuse that I have heard used for Internet marketing purposes is, "I am a newbie!"
I know this doesn't sound like an excuse, but it is. Gary Ambrose pointed this out to me a couple of years ago. When you say you are newbie, you are using that as an excuse. The reason for this is that you never say I am a newbie unless you need an excuse.
Question: What is your website?
Answer: I don't have one I am a newbie.
Question: What niche are you working in?
Answer: I don't have one I am a newbie.
Question: Have you started building your list yet?
Answer: No, I am a newbie.
Read those questions and read those answers and you will see why I say it is an excuse. If you are in the internet marketing field you have probably heard those questions and that answer before. The answer doesn't explain anything, it just works as an excuse for people that haven't done anything yet. Yes, I did refer to myself as a newbie, way back when, but I realize now that it was an excuse that slowed down my progress to my goals.
But just being a newbie doesn't mean that you can't take action. Getting started doesn't take a lot but you have to take action in order to start.
