Feeling Fed up on Friday

I awoke on Friday morning feeling very sorry for myself, my head was pounding and my throat felt like I had swallowed razor blades.

I forced myself to get up, shower and go to my 9-5 job to earn my way. Navigating the traffic with sweaty palms and blurred vision I eventually decided that it would be best to go back home, take some medication and go back to bed.

Decision made and after the required phone call to my boss, that is exactly what I did!

Feeling very fed up I took my medicine and climbed under the covers waiting for sleep to eventually happen so I could hopefully wake again feeling like a human.

While waiting for the drowsiness to take effect I decided to catch up on some social media. Flicking through emails, with nothing of interest to read, or maybe it was just my mood, I noticed a WA email which looked different.

I must admit I read it a couple of times thinking the medication was maybe too strong!

But How did this happen?

Where did this come from?

Fed up to Fabulous

So I clicked on the link and there if was, my very first WA referral commission shining like a bright star.

I was so excited I couldn't wait to find out more.

So now my pounding head was forgotten, I booted up the laptop and started to search my links, referrals and tasks. So many times before I had navigated my way around this part of WA only to see empty results but then always picturing that one day that would change.

Visualisation really does work!

Then something else caught my eye......my countdown to Vegas had also changed!

So much to celebrate, YAY!

A recipe for success

As I followed the training here at WA I often wondered if the success stories I read about will really happen to me one day. Will I really be able to do this while having to go to work all day and only have a couple of hours in the evening to dedicate to my business.

I initially started with a site in hair and beauty as this is my passion, and I was following the advice given in the training, find a niche about something that interests you or you are passionate about, but I felt that I was unable to compete against the popular sites in this niche and I also couldn't afford the images of the latest hairstyles and colour trends, so I decided to go through the Bootcamp training.

At this time I even contemplated giving up as my first attempt had not been successful and I was wondering if this type of life was for other people and I was just destined to be a working employee until retirement.

But then remembering this was why I was doing it in the first place, I just didn't have enough money put away to retire comfortably, while making others wealthy just taking home my average salary and the annual "pat on the back" bonus.

Suddenly I felt re energized to give this another go. I have read time and time again from successful WA members who watch so many people give up, and yet, if they had only kept going, success may just be around the next corner.

I decided to start my second website on MMO and follow the training provided here, it has taken only 6 months to achieve my first 2 referrals.

So YES, it can be achieved by each and every one of us.

Keep going

My break came when I set up my Facebook page for my website. I created a post and linked it to my website then asked all my contacts to like and follow my page,

OK so I admit one of my referrals is my Dad but I didn't even know he was interested in something like this, and boy, is he interested!

Just this one simple act provided me with my referrals, which just proves that if you keep following the training and taking action, apply what you have learnt it will produce results.

Of course great and consistent content is required as well as building traffic in as many different ways as possible until you can determine which is the best and most successful traffic builder for you.
