Few pieces of advice from the heart
So it looks to me my fellow WA users that some things were already in my head when I've started here. Spent whole 2014th on trying to get to the on-line business, used platforms like WIX, linked Google Mails etc. Great!
No... really? Think Mikey once again! It took you more than a year to start NOT TO TRUST every Internet guru. How much did you spent? Money - that can be worked back. But the time guys, our most precious thing! That cannot be worked back. You cannot buy it in the shop, you cannot borrow it from you friend or a hamster. We are here for a limited time, so...
Even if during initial courses you feel like me: "yep, know this one, that one, easy-peasy" simply... DO NOT DO IT!
I bet all of us know how the shop works. Not the massive market, just the one near our homes where we buy our newspapers, beer and sweets. The chap buys the products and resell them to us with a profit. Simple, hey? Who would have thought! But honestly, how many of us would be able to run it successfully with this amount of knowledge I just mentioned above? I bet none of us. Why? Because as they say the devil is hidden in the details.
So what I am trying to share with you?
No matter how much experience from previous forums/sites we have, starting here should be:
1st - completely fresh start
2nd - step by step learning curve
3rd - even if you know some bits and bobs and despite it you still feel bit useless (as me today LOL) do not get frustrated, do not expect from yourselves that you will crack it open in one-two days.
The above will save your time, energy and a few grey hairs. I am sure many of us here were scammed before and we would like to jump on our dragons (money making sites) and get them to fly for us ASAP. Nope, that is not the way. Those dragons will fly uncontrollably. We won't be able to direct them without knowing EVERY aspect of it.
There is a reason why me and many others got here.
Otherwise we all would have lil corner shops with beer, newspapers and sweets LOL
Good luck to all!
Ps- big thank you to every person who came to my aid today. Really appreciate it.

Thank you. I might not be able to help with technical issues as yet, but at least can share some honest thoughts about getting started.
I love the image of the frog, man. What a great mental picture about NEVER EVER giving up!
great post, man.
Sometimes a new start is nice, it will lead to a whole new sense of clarity and you are going to be working through the process of building a business the proper way (and geared towards long term success) here at WA!

I see it this way: There is no course on earth I can follow, with so much learning material and 24/7 all material is accessible, 24/7 all help and answers available and 24/7 technical support for €0,60 a day.
Totally agree! I am treating it this way - we are going yearly in January. Have no idea it will get us any money. But... what would be in our heads after that year at WA board would stay with us forever. We will go out with much more knowledge. And that what counts at least for me.
Great!
