Staying on track with WA

I’ve been a Wealthy Affiliate member for almost four months now and I’m thrilled to see how many people join Wealthy Affiliate every day. This means that everyday people are empowered to take more control of their life and it means that people still have hope – they are willing to try, and in many cases, try again – to do something different – or even scary – to change their life.

I want to offer a few tips to help newcomers stay on track with Wealthy Affiliate and see their goals through because I know that if you do, you will achieve the goals that you came to Wealthy Affiliate to achieve.

1. Watch the Getting Started-Level 1 training video and complete all the tasks within a day or two. You joined Wealthy Affiliate because you were optimistic and excited, use this enthusiasm to dig right in and complete these three easy tasks within the first two days!

2. Complete your profile and add a photo even if it’s just an icon, you can always change it later.

Your profile needs to include:

·your name (use your real name or online name)

·a little about your background

·why you joined Wealthy Affiliate

·your goals

I make these suggestions about profile set-up because I think we take ourselves and our intentions more seriously when we put a little more of ourselves out there. Your profile doesn’t have to be more than 100 words but do let your new community know who you are and why you joined so that we can all support you!

3. Log in everyday for 30 days and take part in the discussions. They say a habit is formed in 21 days (or so…) and Wealthy Affiliate needs to become a habit if you’re going to learn how to succeed in Internet marketing.

4. Don’t ever quit. I really like this from member veronica.I, “the only way to fail is to give up.” Decide to do or learn something new within Wealthy Affiliate every day and keep your ultimate goal in sight.

Set your own standards and allow yourself to progress at your own pace. This isn’t a competition or a race. Know that you will get there because Wealthy Affiliate is the road that leads to Internet marketing success.

5. Find a way to keep yourself motivated everyday – whether it’s the desire to give your family more opportunities, working at a job you don’t enjoy and can’t wait to quit, or watching inspirational movies or videos.

Below is the link to my favourite inspirational video, which is posted in member MikeyB’s goal setting training. I love this video; I watch it every single day.
