When I started off with WA platform, I researched about this platform very critically.
Finally, I joined the community on 12th Jan, 2019, when I had not a single reason in my mind of not joining this awesome platform.

In 2 months I learned a lot and made couple of mistakes as well. And, I'm gonna write about both "learnings" and "mistakes", as I'm preparing myself for 3rd month.

Learnings

1. Narrowing down my niche.
2. Writing new blogs almost every day. It was most time-consuming. :( But quite a learning experience. I've 12 posts so far, can't believe it, myself!!
3. Google Adsense, earned some pennies :) enough to motivate myself regularly :)
4. 3-Modules of OEC, DONE! :) Half way through 4th Module.
5. Of course, a lot from the modules of OEC training, that I never heard off before.

And, initially I resisted SiteComment Platform, but later on decided to spend 1 hour every day to read others content and to give thoughtful comments. I followed the routine of giving comments for couple of days, with absolutely no idea of earning money through this section. I was very happy with Community Credits, lol:)
Slowly, I became Certified Commenter with 98% Acceptance rate, earned a good cash credit and community credit. Good enough for my motivation :)

Still, I give at least 2 comments everyday, if site matches my niche!


Mistakes

1. I took my Money goals lightly, and I was not focused, as I was supposed to be.
NOW, IT IS ETCHED IN MY HEART, never again I'll take it lightly. I'll be harsh to myself.

2. Running behind good rank.
Surely, good ranking is MUST for everyone. But, IF I'm not following training and not working on my website. What will I do with GOOD RANK? I've learned that,
"NOTHING FAILS LIKE SUCCESS!"
With good rank, I'll feel myself an achiever and in no time I'll be shifted to my Comfort-Zone, with LITTLE or ZERO Knowledge and experience.
AND, I committed to strive for good rank only after my OEC Certification, after 5th level!

3. No solid Business Plan
All throughout my School, College, Church and work-place, I've learned that "NOBODY CAN EVER HELP ME, IF I CAN'T HELP MYSELF". It is my life, my business, WA can support me to realize my dreams, only if I have them!

And, I took time, learned from experts, created my rough Business Plan, I'll keep editing as I learn more, but I have one now, and I'm comforted:)

Conclusion

As you might have noticed that my mistakes taught me good lessons than my original learnings.

I'm sincerely thankful to all WA Community, through which I never felt alone!
Some of you are elder than me, and I really need your wishes to get into upcoming months and take MASSIVE ACTIONS towards success! I wish you all the same, as well.

Thanks a lot for reading my post. Excited to start 3rd Month now :)

Cheers:)

This is a great post Akshay! I appreciate that you not only shared what was working good for you but also what didn't work so well. We all like to talk about what we did right but keep our mistakes out of sight.

I was able to see things in there that I have been doing in my first month that I need to change for month two. Especially what you said about chasing the "rank". You are so right that the rank means nothing, if your website is going nowhere. I have made that mistake wanting to respond to people quickly. Yet, maybe I need to be okay with not responding right away and put my focus on getting the training done.

Thanks for being vulnerable and sharing your insight. I greatly appreciate it. I look forward to reading more of your posts

You can edit "Mistakes" with "Challenges Crossed" - just a thought.
