Believe in Yourself!
I just wanted to shed some light on my experience here at WA so far. It as has been an up an down ride so far. Don't get me wrong the community and the training here is second to none. I had some personal issues that delayed the start of my journey significantly.
I just wanted to put this post up so if there is anyone else going through the same things I was, I want to tell them DON'T STRESS IT IS ALL GOING TO GET BETTER! Hopefully this helps.
My Journey So Far!
So I joined on 13 September 2016, all bright eyed full of excitement. ready to do some training and 7 days later I didn't hesitate to join premium, you only have to read my other blog to see how excited is was. I even bought a domain name that day as well.
Things where going well I released my first pages of content very quickly. Then the gloss of things started to wear off I was under extreme stress at work and my wife didn't quite understand why I was doing this. I was doing the exact opposite to what this was supposed to do. I was spend less time with them then I was before.
The spiral down from there was pretty brutal. I suffered from a couple of minor anxiety attacks, which is something I never thought I would have. Those who are close to me know that my attitude to most things is fairly casual. My favourite saying is "She'll be right mate!". The only outcome for me was to give into my self-doubt and stress, I ended up leaving WA.
The time I spent away from here I spent a lot of time talking to my wife about what was going on she actually told me I was an idiot, I think. That I shouldn't doubt myself. I just needed some balance in my life. So we sat down and did a time table of my working hours and time EVERYDAY that I would go for walks and play games with my daughter and just relax.
I returned 8 days ago more focused then ever, but the only difference is I have given myself a time table, scheduled days which I will do certain things like do training and write content, or review sites and reach out to the community.
Thanks to my amazing wife I don't feel stressed about this anymore. I know I have her backing me, and since I have been back I have reached out to the community here more. I now know I have you guys here a WA supporting me as well. Thank you for the support that you have given me in the last days.
If you are felling like I did, try doing a few things to help you distress. Do some exercise or just go for a walk, talk to friends and family, reach out to the community here you will meet some amazing people here, do anything to give you a break and show you it's all worthwhile.
Set yourself a time table which you can manage. I think often that we get caught up in the whole " You only get out what you put in!" theory. Don't get me wrong, this is definitely true but you everyone needs "me" time, otherwise you will burn out like I did.
This was much longer than I thought it would be but I just want to leave you with a thought, "I can do this I am an amazing person!". I want you to tattoo that on the back of your eyelids so that it's the last thing you see before you go to bed every night. Joking, but you are incredible people for getting this far, just remember that.
Best wishes with your journey through life
