Turning 6 Slow Months for Me, So Far So Good.

I'm about to hit my 6-month mark inside Wealthy Affiliate. So far, no commissions yet, no consistent traffic, and I can understand why it seems that way.

I've been acting cozy and too complacent in the first 6 months. I know I've spent a great deal of money when I upgraded to Premium Yearly (Black Friday price), but my body seems to not want to work hard to recoup my investments.


My Resolution: Work 10 Times Harder

Admittedly, what my mind contains is far off from the actions that I have put into reality. I may have the right motivation, but I admit that my work isn't efficient. I guess I still have to find the delicate balance between the following:

1. Mastering Online Marketing Concepts (SEO, Content Creation, Customizing Website)

2. Researching for My Next Blog Posts

3. Generating Blogging Ideas

4. Handling Distractions (I work at home)

5. Getting My Motivation Up and Running All The Time

6. Creating Content on a Regular Basis (This is BIG)

7. Trying to Learn What Works and What Doesn't

8. Exploring New Things and Skills

9. My Endurance and Willpower (whatever it means)

10. My Personal Life (of course!)


The Bright Side: My Burning Passion and Desire to Succeed

I'm in the Online Marketing niche and I think it's a tough place to compete with. But so far, I've made some nice accomplishments:

1. Followed the Training here at Wealthy Affiliate

2. Built a Huge Following of friends (700+ WA members)

3. My Mind discovered a Vast Ocean of Possibilities to Succeed (quite rhetoric lol)

4. Finally developed a System that will Keep me Working Hard

5. Now willing to Devote More Time to My Work

6. I'm a Hundred Times More Knowledgeable than when I first started

7. More Determined to Get to Vegas and Meet You Guys!


I know I'm talking a lot here, so I should stop now. The point is that I want to start working more and get to 10X levels. I never really thought of writing this blog. But because it's my 6-month mark, I thought I'd give it a go.

I shall stop blogging here and start blogging more for my own website until I get to my outrageous goals (see my profile if you're curious).


So what do you guys think? Any advice you can give me will be deeply appreciated :)

My attitude and mindset looks good, but my physical efforts couldn't catch up lol. So yes, I should now give it more push.

Great destination and big goal
How you success all you wish.

All I really need is more focus. And it's funny, because it rarely happens to me.

Keep up your training and practicing. Website development will come slowly but surely!

Thanks Michael, I will continue to do that. But admittedly, I'm quite an impatient guy, that the word "slow" is not in my vocabulary yet lol

So I guess this journey is a test of patience and persistence in my part.

Thanks Irv, I'll keep doing that
