So I am not sure where to start. Therefore, I feel I must start out by saying that getting to level 5 is quite an undertaking. But, that may not be the case for everybody.

Allow me to explain. For some, you might think that writing about things and posting for the world to see is easy. However, I must say that I feel a little intimidated on this journey.

I am excited to have reached level 5 of the ambassador training and I have watched my WA rankings continue to rise. However, there have been set backs during my journey so far that I really wasn't expecting.

Overcoming Fear

Frankly, I am down right sometimes scared, I have a lot riding on my decision to be here. I am sure everyone that is a part of this group can attest too.

To clarify, I mentioned, I am a little intimidated on this journey here at WA for several reasons.

Firstly, I still have so many questions that haven't been answered yet. Although, I am sure I can get the answers from the forum as needed.

Secondly, there is this feeling of loneliness that I seem to have while I'm trying to decide what to write and what direction I am going in. Now, I know that may not make much sense. But, it is the only way I can describe it.

The truth is, there are days I wake up and wonder what I'm doing here. Do you ever feel that way? Every day, I wake up, I I must ask the question, does this really work? What if it doesn't?

To clarify, deep down I want it to work so bad that it drives me to continue moving forward. One of my deep down dreams that I have never really shared before until now is, to be a writer. I have started several times but never pursued a writing career.

Who knew that WA would provide me the training to follow that dream.

Daunting Setbacks

Although, I am just getting started, I realize I have a long way to go. Consequently, it has been said that it could take 3 - 6 months for me to see any financial results in my blogging journey.

After all, that is what we are here for. That is to say, create financial success by helping others receive the best information they are looking for.

But, what if after 6 months of total commitment there are no results? That is an overwhelming feeling that could be a possibility.

To add to my doubts, this morning I was informed that Google did not approve me for Adsense. That in itself raises a huge concern for me. However, I am hoping that is only based the lack of content thus far. Has anyone else had this setback?

Moving Forward to Level 5

In life, there will always be setbacks, what makes you great is how you handle the setbacks. Every day, I wake up and realize that the setbacks are making me stronger, and better at what I do.

So, moving forward to level 5, what does that really mean? To clarify, as I was thinking about this post I researched just words Level 5. To my surprise, I found that is it basically a level of education. It is just that simple. Education is the key to success in any journey that you set out for.

But, as I look back to where I started and now to where I am at. Level 5 is a huge accomplishment. There have been many before me that have excelled past this point and I hope that there are many climbing the ladder behind me.

Although, I realized that as I was writing this post I was starting to let doubt creep into my thoughts and words. That is not my purpose here. I have always been taught to lift up and edify which is really what happens within this forum.

That is to say, I was searching for something when I found Wealthy Affiliates Now it is up to me to take what I have learned and will continue to learn and move forward to success.

What Lies Ahead?

It is hard to say whether my journey will be successful or not. I must continue to believe that if I truly put in the work that I will reap the rewards.

The question I need to ask myself and maybe you do too. What are you doing today to contribute to your success?

But, at the end of the day I also need to ask myself what did you do to contribute to your success? These two questions might seem the same.

However, they are indeed very different. You see, in my eyes what I did helps determine my success not what I planned to do.

It would appear everyone that is a part of this great family, is here to provide some sort of help when needed. I am thankful for that. So far throughout my journey, I have received all the help I have needed.

So on to level 5 and beyond. Thank you to everyone that has been a part of this journey. I look forward to the day that I have enough knowledge to inspire as I have been inspired.

You're welcome, Chuck!

I feel that way sometimes too... but I move on, maybe with slower steps than you, but I won’t give up. Every step counts even if it is so small.
Congratulations on level 5 (I’m halfway through level 3).
I wish you all the best,
Nina

Well you certainly can do it! I have to face my fear everyday as I am terrible at writing anything long but I chug along!

I hate to burst your bubble or enthusiasm but it can take longer than 6 months. 3-6 months is the minimum it will take depending on your niche.
I started seeing small profits at 4 months (which is quite early) but it has tapered off at month 5. I expect it to pick up at the 6 month mark but not to make a livable income until 1 year or more.

This is the long game. I hope you are in this for the long haul! You can do this but it takes time to build a business!

You can do this!

Thank you for your insight. I do realize that it will take longer to truly have this rolling along. But I do hope to see some sort of progress sooner than later.
