The Beginning of my Journey

Well, here I am with my first ever blog post here at WA!! I usually hate writing because I always end up turning it into something way more complicated than it has any right to be! This is because I have a bad issue with obsessive perfectionism! I agonize over every word because I want to accurately portray whatever it is that I am thinking or feeling.

I have read it and heard it said many times before that one should just write whatever comes into the mind as fast as he can without worrying too much about how to word the ideas. The important thing is to just let the ideas flow without interruption so that the main gist is set down on paper. Once you have a body of text that has laid out the main thrust of what you have to say, then you can go back and edit and fine tune everything. Otherwise, the ideas get stifled in the shuffle to get them out on paper.

This has been my biggest roadblock to creating something special with my writing! As I write this post, I am struggling with this very issue, however, I am doing better tham usual.

The aim of this present post is to start my journey of documenting my rise from a nobody, who comes literally from nothing, to a successful business man who has gained complete freedom of his time and finance! My rise may be slow but it will be certain!! I will have patience and I will have perseverence until I have accomplished my goal! And nothing will stand in my way!

Let me tell you a little bit about what I mean when I say that I have literally come from nothing: as I write this post I am sitting in a substance abuse program with no outside assistance from friends or family (well, at least almost non. One friend gave me 20 dollars and another helped me pay my phone bill); no money to my name; and I won't be able to work for another month! Everything I own in this life is with me here in this program, and it all fits within 6 cubic feet!

There is a computer lab here at the program and I go there as often as I can to work on my progress here at WA. However, due to all the other things I have to do here (classes, meetings, and such) my time in the computer lab is very limited. So most of the work I do at WA is done on my phone; which I'm sure you can imagine, is very awkward slow and difficult.

I will not let this deter me!!!

I must say that I have only been hip to Affiliate Marketing now for about 3 weeks. I have been with WA for about 2 of those weeks. That 20 dollars that my friend gave me, mentioned above; I used it to pay for my first month of premium membership at WA, even though it was the only money I had! I did so because the value of becoming a premium member was obvious to me almost immediately! And I was eager to begin this journey as soon as possible, with the best resources available! Two weeks later, I am still certain I made the right decision. And you can trust and believe that I have been looking everywhere else just to make sure there isn't anything better but I have yet to find it!

A year from now when anyone looks back on this post, they will see that there is absolutely no one on earth who can't become successful in this business! Because, if I can do it, starting from scratch with absolutely nothing to my name, then anyone can!

Make no mistake about it; I am a busy man here with all the things required of me at this program! But, once again, I won't let that deter me!!!

Let this post stand as a beacon to anyone who might be easily discouraged or detered; let it stand as a light to those who might falter without its inspiration!! Patience, dedication, and perseverence!!

I like your style Damon, it is good to put that peg in the ground and stake your claim, best wishes as you forge ahead. Congratulations on your first WA post, the thing to do with writing is to do more of it you will surprise yourself.

Thanks Alex. I do plan on just writing as much as I can, which might not be much at first, but hopefully I will learn to love it and will be able to cultivate my inner genius!

All power to your elbow DKaiser, with your determination I'm sure you will become the success your visions see for you. One of my favourite inspirational people (Mike Dooley) uses the mantra "thoughts become things, choose the good ones" and that says it all, so go ahead and think success, it will work .

Thanks buddy, I'm going to need all the positive affirmations I can get. Any well wishes and words of encouragement or advice is also welcomed with gratitude.
