Joy and Frustration A New Journey Begins

I woke up this morning filled with joy after watching a bunch of trainings last night until like 3 in the morning. It put me in the mindset of a long positive journey rather than a short race. To me journeys are much more satisfying than destinations, I tend to think of destinations as a vacation and once you get there it's the beginning of the end, you might have a blast while you're there but eventually you have to go home.

Life destinations can differ, the destination is a journey in itself. Unlike a vacation, or like a very bad vacation you may not always enjoy what you find, but sometimes the bad parts make the good parts sweeter. For me, I am having the hardest time following along with the trainings and getting my website to look like I want. It's not moving fast enough, but it's moving too fast at the same time. I'm only on the second set of training, I can't figure out how to get the picture right on my page, I can't get things to sit where I want them to, I'm so used to doing this on wix that I feel like I've been spoiled and this is frustrating me. I chose a domain name hoping to form a set of websites under it as a true brand name, like an umbrella corporation with a bunch of subsidiaries only to find that I can only put one website under it, so now I'm stuck.

That's the bad part of the journey and the life destination I have chosen in joining WA. Here's the good part. For the first time in a while I have hope of improving my life situation. I peeked ahead at the headings for the training and some of these things that are frustrating me are actually just a couple or a few lessons away, they will be fixed, I will learn. I have had so many people follow me with true experience and titles by there name like top 200 or ambassador which gives me hope that I willl be able to ask for help and get it. I will be able to implement something I have actually wanted to do for years, add a concept that I only learned about recently, and be able to support myself with it fully in time.

I love journeys. When I woke up this morning I was so full of joy that i had started a new one. This post is kind of long winded but I just thought I'd share it. Maybe some others will understand and realize they're not alone in this thing after all and they can wake up with joy as well, and even realize that joy does not come without some trepidation, but doesen't make us any less excited.

Thanks for reading,

Mindy

P.S. Sorry for the crooked picture, it's another one of my creations and it has a smiley face to go with my sentiment, I just couldn't figure out how to rotate the blasted thing lol.

Very well put, Mindy! The journey is always the most memorable part of any trip, isn't it? So, just go with the flow and keep pushing forward!

I am new here also and am just starting the second level of lessons myself. I already feel as though I've accomplished so much. And, even if I don't manage to make it big in the business, its been a great experience! I'm learning more and more every day about the business and, most importantly, myself.

Good luck to you in all you do! And enjoy the ride!

You know there is no such thing as a stupid question here. There is always someone who knows how to help us push ahead to the next step.

Hi, Mindy, be confident, everything takes some time, do not rush, don't hesitate to ask questions when you feel stuck, remember to focus on the step by step training, you did the right thing to sign up with WA, you'll be surprised on later on when your website will be completely set up.
