Making progress

It's Monday so I'll report my week's progress. This is Day 8 of my 30-challenge. I accomplished a few things and learned even more.

What I accomplished:

  • bartered for a website in a niche I'm interested in
  • got my WA affiliate site sommewhat good to go
  • experimented with settings and themes
  • wrote some blogs
  • showed up at WA--consistency!
  • posted my first affiliate offer in a forum

What I learned:

  • It does me no good at all to stay up late because my brain is mush the next day.
  • Even a little bit of time every day adds up.
  • I have a problem with finishing. Love to keep tinkering.
  • Nothing happens until I actually get my sites live.
  • Before you post in forums, be sure to read ALL the guidelines. Twice.

The challenge is working for me.

  • I'm involved in the WA community and loving it! This is simply the friendliest, most helpful place on the web.
  • I'm making slow progress. I can do this and still do my regular job.
  • Overwhelm only happens if I let it.
  • I realize one of my biggest problems is making it too hard, too complicated. Something up is better than nothing up.

Goals for the coming week:

  • Keep working on the lessons and the websites, at least an hour a day
  • Write three articles for each and post them.
  • Take just one more shot at the premium theme I bought. If I keep having problems, just switch to one of the hundreds (thousands?) already available. It's not worth fussing over.

On to week 2!
