Trying to Keep Up!
So, I just wrote another most for my second website (1st niche site) http://onlinegroceryshoppingdelivery.com/. I feel like I've learned a ton from WA thus far, but keeping up with my two sites, the training here at WA, and my day-to-day has been pretty challenging. I could easily spend all day writing and planning and keyword researching, but a certain (little) someone prohibits me from paying attention to anything but him for too long.
I definitely have days where I get discouraged - not because I'm not making money yet - I know that's going to take quite some time - but because I feel like I take two steps forward and one step back on a regular basis. I have been very sick, and consequently now have a couple of bruised ribs, which makes doing anything quite painful. My family has told me I just need to take it easy whenever I can, but I really want my websites to work. I really believe in what I've done so far and I have a lot of ideas moving forwards (I've already purchased my third domain!).
My goal in the first six months here is to have at least three fully functioning websites, that I can add posts to each week. I've got two down that I'm still adding reviews too as well, so this goal seems definitely manageable. I think setting smaller daily/weekly goals will help me feel like I'm constantly working towards this bigger goal too.
For example, I'd like to create one new post for each of my sites each week, in addition to one new review per site. I'm also working on building up my ad content, so today I just went through and applied to a number of advertisers through CJ, ShareASale, and FlexOffers since they all have a lag time while my requests are reviewed.
Small step by small step, I'm going to make this happen! :)

What a great post, thank you!
I'm in exactly the same position as you, really want to get lots done but my 2 boys really do take up my time so whenever I get into working through the training and getting my website up together, I have to stop and get them sorted.
I love your small step by small step attitude, has helped me realise it's not a race and I'll get there in the end :)
Thank you

Hi Lisa,
I'm so glad this was helpful to someone else! :) I can't imagine having two and also trying to find time to dedicate to WA and website building. Thinking about this long term definitely helps though :)
