I get in my own way, I think.

There is no doubt in my mind that affiliate marketing works. I can see by what WA has provided that there is a very real opportunity here if one has faith and continues to work at it success seems inevitable. I do not doubt that people make a living at this.

Of course, people make a living at acting, and I pursued that for several years to no avail. People make a living as artists and I've done that all my life, no profit. I've dabbled in many, many different form of occupation, but have always refused to get stuck making money doing something I don't care about. Earning a living has never been a very high priority in my world. I've got this idea that I should be able to make money doing something I enjoy, or at least feel good about.

Now I'm looking at WA and I'm writing and uploading images like crazy. I had to delete my first attempt at a site, because I changed my u.r.l. in the wrong place and couldn't get to my site anymore. I found a spot where Kyle advises against this, but I missed it before. Even now as I write my mind is thinking of other things to do that is tempting me to stop writing now. I seem to set obstacles before myself to sabotage success.

So, is there anyone else among you all in Wealthy Affiliate that feels the same kind of struggle? Do you see that something may work and yet you are sure it won't work for you? Or are you struggling with motivation or self-discipline? Can we set up a forum that allows us to vent and inspire each other to stick with it?

I am almost in the same situation....I think I did some thing wrong with my bought domain (the dark blue) button .....and it is talking about FTP and DNS settings which I am not familiar with.....there is a tutorial by some one in WA....I followed it but >< <>?(*&^ all those signs scared me. I am new to computer and don't know much ....I was doing everything that Kyle said in the free domain and it worked alright......but I don't want to rectify and still trying it is now 2 days...but I am not giving up...I will go forward....how many times I may fail but I will try not matter what I will succeed.... because honestly for me there is no other way......So don't worry..keep going...May be you can start a forum ....something like "beginners problems" and WA can assign some experienced member to solve it for us...........cheers

I think you said the most important thing. "I'm not giving up." No matter how many times I have to start over, or what happens I'm going to continue. In a way this site is overwhelming, because it is so much information all at once, and it all surrounds the reality of filling pages with valuable information, that only I can come up with. But no one can tell us how or what to write, yet our writing is what ultimately earns the money. Maybe a creative writing circle within WA is something we could work on. Where we can share our writing with each other and discuss what works as far as traffic, and what doesn't. I have not gotten a page ranked yet in Google so that is my first goal.

I haven't got may page up....it is almost...3 days....I will not blame anyone for this it is really my fault........cheers
