I feel like an online farmer

That's what I feel like after nearly six weeks at WA, like a farmer who has planted seed in his fields to reap a harvest at a later date; I've been putting up some posts but not making any sales yet.

I expected that this will take time as I work on trying to drive traffic to my site through the process of social media engagement. This is like watering the crops and nurturing them.

It has to be done consistently, as this is a challenge to see this come to fruition; but I feel that I am up for it. I'm learning a lot in the process as I'm becoming more aware of what I'm doing and getting better at it slowly.

Working during the day and spending time on my website in the evenings does give me the benefit of earning money at the moment until I make some off my website; I hope I can time that well.

It would be good to go full time on this, so I can give this the attention it deserves, but that will come later in the year; in the meantime I will keep ploughing ahead.

As the farmer harvests his crops and takes them to market to get his payday, so I hope the time will come when after all the effort has been put int to put up posts and drive traffic to my site; that I will also get a payday as well and keep it going.

Has anybody else that has started out on this journey, felt the same way as I have; that they're like an online farmer?
