Taken the first step, finally!
I first came across WA a few days ago, and I watched the free videos to get a feel for what this is all about. Then with my profile set up, I started reading through some of the live chats and blogs over the last few days.
To say I felt overwhelmed is an understatement.
There is so much jargon in the chats and blogs, that I thought I wasn't going to be able to do this, far too technical for my brain. How am I supposed to build a website with effective SEO, and why would people even go to my website and read what I have to say, nevermind how I would make money doing this, as I have tried and failed at this before!!
I have done some research on you tube and google etc on other peoples experiences with WA, and found them to be very encouraging and decided I needed to put my overwhelm to the side, stop procrastinating, and just give it a go.
So, I have literally just signed up and about to get stuck into the first videos and see where it takes me. I know this is a long game, and I won't see quick results, so wish me luck, and remind me, when you see my comments in the chats, to stick with it, and take one step at a time, when the ugly heads of overwhelm and procrastination raise their flags again.
Thanks in advance for all your support and encouragement, LETS'S DO THIS!

Welcome to Wealthy Affiliate (WA)!
Follow the training, ask questions, and you will pick it up as you go. The jargon confusion will reduce as you engage all the training here at WA.
Best wishes, Cath!
Hey Cath,
Welcome to WA, and I know you are not going to regret your decision to take the leap to P+. Those feelings of overwhelm come with entering into a new environment and learning something that is brand new to you...not to worry though, the things that you are learning now will become second nature before you know it.
I really look forward to working with you and seeing your progress moving forward. If you ever need a hand with anything at all, don't hesitate to reach out! :)
Hey, Cath, welcome onboard!
You are on the right track. As you said, it's not luck but work, just like any other business. I'm going to be in my third month starting today (just paid for the third month some one hour ago).
However, I started here in August 2015, but I never followed the training and the business itself, though I was ranking higher in the first two months. But now, I am at it.
Why am I at it? Because it's not just business to be at the WA; it's life. I love creating things, and the WA has that: tools, and community.
Take the core training plus the SEO/traffic courses and put everything to work. We are here to help each other along the way.
