Pausing, Pondering, A Pat on My Back.

I am taking a moment to pat myself on my back, inviting you to do the same.

It is in our nature to beat ourselves down for not doing enough, we are our biggest critics. This then begins a path of doubt, a lose of focus and eventually giving up.

I look back at what I have achieved since joining WA a couple of weeks ago and I am amazed.

Built a website, it got ranked and indexed by Google, written 10 articles, I know about keyword research, niches, joined affiliate programs, making new friends here etc etc.. while working a full time job. I can't help but wonder where I will be 3 months, 6 months, 1 year....

Sometimes a milestone may mean taking a break from all this, and that is okay.

Don't be too hard on yourself there is a time for that, take a moment to reflect on your progress and be proud of you.

You are doing GREAT......!

How many of you are guilty of being too hard on themselves?

I would love to hear your thoughts, please feel free to comment.
