There is a "first time" in everything
In our life, there are two unique moments - the beginning and the end. Along the way, we have a first time for everything.
The first diaper, the first birthday, the first day of school, the first bike, the first kiss, the first car, the first cigarette, the first day of college, the first beer, the first time you open a computer, the first day of work, the first marriage, the first child, the first retirement day and of course the FIRST TIME YOU MAKE A WEBSITE.
I started here at WA in December 2021, I probably should have finished the training by now and have more sites. Basic activities did not leave me much free time. Somehow I started, I made my first website, and I sold a book and a cleaning product. It is not a big financial gain, but it is the first time, and I gained confidence.
Wealthy Affiliate is a great place for people like me, with no experience in the field and not exactly young. It is very difficult to walk alone on this road.
At first, I was scared and confused. Then I made a mistake, I was in a hurry, I looked for other sources of inspiration, and I skipped some lessons. I was even more confused. I came back, deleted almost everything, and started following the path indicated here.
I still have to learn, I still have uncertainties. For example: when an update appears for a plugin, the message "We highly recommend you backup your site before upgrading" also appears. I don't know how this backup can be done.
Or in another case, after clicking on "update now" I receive a response " The update cannot be installed because some files could not be copied. This is usually due to inconsistent file permissions". I do not know what that means.
For those who are at the beginning of the journey here, I tell them not to give up.
All the best to everyone.

Hey Daniel, great post. Never give up, lol.
One thing I've learned over the years is that you have to accept all the things that went wrong, all the times of confusion and frustration, are part of reaching any kind of success.
It's called failing forward.
Each issue is a learning experience which helps move us forward.
And when we do, we are ahead of 90% of the people who just quit!
All the best to you as well,
Suzanne
