So you get excited, you are going through the courses, and all of a sudden things seem to start taking off at a high speed!
Here's my story! I started the WA community 12 days ago and loved the easy flow of the courses and lessons and started working diligently to get my website up and running quick. I was so excited, because everyone in the WA community was being so helpful and giving great feedback.
I started taking all the feedback to heart and trying to better the site as quick as the feedback would come in. Then you get introduced to a think called Google+. This has changed the reality of the whole scenario.
I have been setting up non-financial goals within WA as well as my website. I have followed the courses faithfully and my mind has been racing with endless possibilities.

My mom has been hearing all about me doing this new website and she decided to pull up the word "scrapbooking" on Google and lone behold my picture along with my website and to all the posts I have been blogging on with my Google + pulled up on the 1st page, 4th option down on Google!!!!
This had me soooo excited, but then I had to check myself. Yes I have been moving right along and people seem to be very excited about the content and wanting more, but how fast should I do this?
I see myself getting ahead and asking questions that I will get to through the courses and lessons and I think to myself, "Amanda BREATH" So I have come up with the plan to take my time as I have been and go through the courses like I have and not try to just jump the gun and end up losing my audience.
It gets so exciting with the success I am seeing non-financially that it is only a matter of time that I will start seeing the financial side as I have been accepted to every affiliate program that I can blog about that will fit in very nicely with my niche and theme.
I realized it will be better to take my time and gain the knowledge I need and create goals ahead for possibilities of things to do with my website then to lose my audience and not have excellent material that all will benefit from.
It seemed like I was starting to push myself to get to that level of the financial, but I am enjoying the process and I want to continue to enjoy the process at a slower speed without freaking out that I am behind.
I think I am right on target for my goals. I have hit Top 200 ranking here at WA, I am almost to 500 followers here and that to me is a big deal, because I plan to continue to help people along the way so I stay in contact with WA and not think I don't need the community as it has been a blessing for me.
So Take some time to reflect on your process, help a member out, and enjoy the process because in the end it will pay off! Have a great weekend ya'll!
