2 Years Old!
So, 2 years at WA and what have I to show for it?
1. Been here for 2 years
2. Umm... that's about it
Yup, even after 2 years and with all the training, chat, blogs and devdelopments here at WA; I've achieved nada.
Oh, I do have 31 websites of which 13 are siterubix sub-domains (is that an achievement?)
It's not really a great deal to show for 2 years presence, if I'm honest.
Had I truly applied myself then I could be (could be mind you) sitting on a couple of nice streams of passive income - perhaps even have my own product/s out there gathering moolah as I type - who knows?
That's all very well - but - can I see myself progressing any further in another 12 months? Is this the life for me? I want it, sure - but do I WANT it enough?
I suppose the question I have to ask myself at this point is - is it worthwhile me being here for another year? Do I want that 'internet lifestyle' so much that I keep on digging for the possible gold?
Do you know - I can't answer that question fully yet. My heart is all up and aching to go but my head is saying 'Whoa there boyo - do ya really wanna? I mean - really?' (you know - it says it in that really wheedling, nasal, adenoidal voice)
..........
OK, here it is in black and white; my promise to myself.

Today is Tuesday 17th September 2019 (at 23:57hrs).
If you do not have one, or more, of the below:
- A self-produced product launched
- An income stream from affiliate marketing, or
- An email list
by 17th September 2020 you will leave WA and forget about an internet lifestyle.
12 months to make a difference - from today
It can be done, of course, it can be done - and thousands have done it, are doing it and will do it in the future.
Can I do it?
YES, YOU WILL !!

Try Landing Pages.
Promote 1 item each Landing Page.
Focus on getting 1 Landing Page earning money first.
Drive traffic to it, include an email opt-in for some freebie or news letter... etc.
Have a monetary target for it.
Then rinse and repeat.
Create a 2nd Landing Page and so on.
Maybe that will bring in a better result.
All the best anyway, whichever way you go.
Just my opinion, it can be something your not doing, or not doing right that is bringing in no results.
So change your work ethic and strategy for online success.
Good for you! There is no reason you can't reach one or two or all three of your goals in a year.
I am pretty sure having 31 websites is the problem however. There is no way anyone could manage that many websites when starting out (or at all without hired help). You should focus on 1 or 2 and forget all the rest for the next year in my opinion. Unless you are Super Man and don't need any sleep:)
The advice I have always seen here from Kyle and Jay etc. is only work on 1 site when you are starting and don't start another until the 1st is up and making money. I started a second after a few years and just bought my third domain yesterday. I can't even keep up with those.
Maybe you should just focus on excelling at 1 or 2 of those websites instead of 31. I only have one and that seems like too much for me!

Dom, you’ve taken the first step...honesty. It’s the most important thing you can do. Now you can build on this and you will. You’ve set your goals and are focused. You’ll succeed.

If you put in all the work and maintain focus on one thing at a time, you will definitely make it! You've got your goals and pathways set down.
You can do it! Though 31 sites is a LOT. You should try to focus on one site at a time as a well-run website is a full-time job all on its own when there's only one of you. ^_^

I believe you can. Focus on one profitable niche and stay the course.
Cheers,
