I'm Back

Hello, my name is Dennis Detweiler. I joined WA in September of 2016. I was recovering from a stroke that happened on July 1, 2016. Thank God I have no permanent damage other than short bouts with vertigo.

As an career oil and gas landman, which requires lots of travel, I had to give that up for a time until I was more secure driving again. I needed something to fill my days and provide an income to fill the void.

I threw myself into the training and created an online presence. I made a mistake Kyle warns about and that is getting ahead of oneself. I created 4 websites. In doing so I became completely overwhelmed. Something I learned along time ago is that confusion causes inactivity.

A long time passion of mine, online trading, continued to provide income. But knowing I could succeed in affiliate marketing with the platform and training WA provides, I renewed my premium membership.

As someone who has historically set and reset big goals, usually ones in which I really had no control of the outcome, I know I can attain my new achievable goal of doing something in WA daily.

I am going to go back and review all the lessons I have previously done. I am going to do the steps and activities Kyle sets out, before moving on to the next lesson. My trading provides more than enough income for a monthly needs, so there should not be any pressure to jump ahead and hurry through the training.

There is so much help available within the WA community, I have no excuse to have been frustrated to the point of giving up. Thanks Kyle, Carson and the WA community.
