Two months in.

Well, here we are at 5th January and here is my blog to tell you all about what I haven't achieved in these two months. I joined on 5th November, went yearly premium with the Black Friday deal...and then...stalled.
Why? Because, in typical style, as soon as I had something to focus on, my entire family descended upon me from the other side of the planet (yes, really) and are still here. Granted, I knew they were coming, even when I joined WA.
December seemed to go by in a flash with one thing after another culminating in Christmas and New Year and the few days of 'recovery' thereafter. That's not to say I haven't done anything, because I have. But a lot less than I would have liked!
What HAVE I done?

Well, I started the Green training and couldn't find a niche. So off I trotted to the Bootcamp. DingDong, a niche appeared, out of nowhere, like a magical burst of cosmic illumination.
So off I went back to the Green training.
I have set up my website and am now hamstrung on writing my first post. I have researched a gazillion keywords, I am busy creating a mind map for how I want my website to look, and am slowing inching towards writing my first post on my chosen subject. I do make all of this far too difficult for myself. I seem to block myself at every opportunity and end up getting confused.
Deep breath. Back to Deepak Chopra's meditations... get rid of these limiting thoughts, limiting beliefs. Actually, just get on and do it. Write that first post. After all, no one's looking (yet) so just get on out there, write stuff, build it; and suffer the embarrassment and humiliation later that my writing is simply Not Good Enough.
In other irrelevant news, a huge storm hit over New Year, and January 1st started out rather inauspiciously as the internet was down for most of the day (yeah, well, I wasn't really going to do much in any case). And a huge tree had fallen down in my garden.
And now, I'm going to go back to the WA Keyword tool and keep on going... Hopefully I will be blogging some success here soon, such as "I've written my first post" and other ventures into ridiculousness.
Happy New Year, here's to everyone's success!
