But, like any dedicated professional, Super Affiliates never give up. They keep trying and eventually they develop a special mindset that allows them to approach each project they take on with the clarity of vision that has made millionaires the world over. They do this by constantly taking actions towards their goals. The number one thing the top affiliate marketers never do is procrastinate. I cannot stress this enough. It’s very easy to get bogged down in the educational materials that float around out there. So and so has a new product about how to make $10,000 a week in 6 weeks or less? Pick it up.

They highlight keywords that were unsuccessful, analyze the tools they used, and adapt their budgets and their ad groups to match. The other guys? They quit.
