First Day of the Rest of my Life

Day 1 of my WA journey. Ok well, I have been here for 3, almost 4 days now, but today is the day I took the leap into Premium status. I need to make this work. I am only telling you here, and not the rest of my family and friends, because my last adventure into the online business world, although successful, was also a setback. It was a setback that my wife, at the time, just wanted me to quit and unfortunately, I did. That was over 10 years ago.

Now my life is changing, kids are almost gone, my wife is almost gone, and I have a successful veterinary practice, but I want something different. I want to be able to make money anywhere from a laptop. I want to be able to make more money than is possible selling time for money, and most important I want to be able to reach more people than one patient at a time and on more than one topic. I love to teach, I love to speak at seminars, I love social media when someone asks a question and I can respond and it helps more people than the person asking the question. I want, no I need, an online business selling information.

I have a lease that is up in 2 years so I have given myself a couple goals - within 6 months to be making $3000 a month (to pay for the lease) and within 2 years $15,000 a month to replace my income. I can then become really free. These goals are definitely attainable especially after looking around here at WA and with my past experience, I know it can be done. I thank you all ahead of time for the support that I know will come from this amazing group of likeminded individuals all working on the freedom that having an online business can provide.
