One Day At A Time - Lessons Learned the Hard Way!

Here's a picture worth a thousand words! My grandchildren are the driving force behind my passion to create a business online as part of my legacy. They are a creative, loving, and energetic bunch that keeps me young.

Family is important to all of us. I see WA as an extended online family in three short weeks since I joined. The support, care, and willingness to reach out to help has encouraged me to keep going.

The last three weeks I have written and published 6 articles and reviews which is more than I have posted online for the last 10 years. I have three articles on Medium and just recently I made .01 cent so I am now a paid writer. That may sound strange but getting over 100 followers on Medium has taken me 5 years and they actually read my articles.

I share this as I have committed to write 80 article/blog posts by April 2021. I am working on a content calendar in Infinity with a publishing schedule of 3 articles per week for the next 25 weeks. This will be my primary weekly activity plus finishing my training here on WA and working on building out my business infrastructure.

The advice I read on WA tells us over and over to concentrate on one thing at a time. To build one website out fully and build traffic to it first before starting a second website. Each website is like starting a subsidiary business so it is more than just buying a domain name and building basic website.

I am still getting distracted by all the 'shiny tools/programs/solutions' those internet gurus tell us we need. It has been an obsession of mine and perhaps others identify. The reality is if I had just worked on my first website I created 10 years ago - writing 3 articles per week - I would be making a full time living online by now.

Well even an 'old dog' like me can learn new tricks and start over.

Thanks WA family for your generous support! #nevergiveup
