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?
