Cancelled my membership

Hi everyone,

Today I cancelled my membership. It does make me feel sad but at the same time feel good because it had to be done for mainly one reason; motivation.

Other reasons are financial, health and perhaps slight disbelief in affiliate marketing. It's all fair though that I did not make money because I admit not spending enough time on my blog. Financially I am doing bad because of that but also because of my health with this mysterious chronic pain that my terrible doctors cannot seem to diagnose.

Having said that motivation is just not there

I am afraid you really need to enjoy blogging and shooting videos on itself if you want to make it in WA. I really HATE IT. I remember reading some of nathaniel's articles which somewhere said: "if you are passionate enough, you have a recipe for failure." The problem is I am passionate about surf and travel, not blogging about it.

When I blog, 30 minutes later the first thought is:

"ughh am I done yet?"

My guess is you need to enjoy blogging even if you are not making money. I do feel attached to my blog. My next thought has to be whether I want to keep my blog or not. WA is too expensive for just blogging.

Thanks for reading my blog. My name is Daniel and I wish everyone the best in business and life.
