Progress is Sometimes a Slow Process

Well, it's been almost 8 months since I joined Wealthy Affiliate. I can honestly say that I haven't put forth all of the effort that I probably should have during this time. We all get sidetracked from time to time. Life, work, and family sometimes intervene. And we become disenchanted when we don't see results right away. I have to admit that I am guilty of all of the above.
I was unemployed when I first joined WA and I had tremendous hopes. I breezed through the initial training and had 2 websites up and running in no time at all. I even got several referrals and and a premium referral within the first 4 months. Then the unthinkable happened, I got a job.
I started thinking more about my job than about my websites and training and things sort of stagnated for several months. I even went so far as to cancel my WA membership. But that got me to thinking about why I had started with WA in the first place. It was so that I would not have to worry about a job and I wanted to build toward my future.
With that revelation, I decided to rededicate myself to my websites and my training. I also decided to go back to school and finish my BA in Business Management. I know that my plate is going to be really full for awhile between a full time job, managing a relationship, college coursework and my WA commitment, but I am committed to making it all happen. At least, until my websites start creating enough income that I don't have to worry about the job part and I then I can put my full concentration on school and my websites.
Until then, I am going to proceed at the best of my ability, absorb every ounce of knowledge from both my school courses and my WA training, apply everything that I am learning from each and see where it all leads. From this point all I can see is success, in all aspects. I am excited and looking forward to telling you all about my successes or failures (of which I hope there are few). So, here's to the future and all that it holds. I also wish the best to all of you.
