No Union Shop Here

It's All Up To You!

Don't expect anyone else to do things for you, unless of course you have a bunch of money you want to spend paying them to do so.

This business you are building is a legitimate "real" business and by no means an overnight get rich quick with no work required by you scheme.

You must do the work, You must do the training and research, You must write the blogs and build you're sites and You must cash the checks.

Pay For Performance

I don't intend to make any enemies here and I do realize the benefit of unions, in certain situations of course .... but not all situations ... we can debate that later if you like.

What I like to call the "real" world runs on something called Pay For Performance which is much different than the fairly unfair world of unions. I only say fairly unfair in terms of employees being paid the same no matter how little or how much they actually work.

The Pay For Performance or real world working system is driven by initiative and desire to succeed. It is those who put more in that get more out. Let's not assume there are not flaws as we are dealing with us humans and some of us just don't get it. We have some names for those folks that I'm sure you've all heard before.

Those who do not work as hard or as much do not get as much. It's pretty much that simple and it makes perfect sense (to me anyway) that each individual get what they deserve.

What we are doing here at WA, the businesses we are building are Pay For Performance based and we must keep that in mind as we are building, writing, signing affiliates, taking breaks, chatting in chat and so on.

Important Question

You've all seen lists of the top xx things to do in your business or the daily list you should follow or the this or the that list.

These are all awesome lists and I have the ones I've seen starred so I can go back and reference them again. If you don't know how to "star" something let me know and I will help you out.

Most of the things on these lists are the same for the most part and it is good to have them pop up again and again as a reminder and as fresh news for new folks.

The important question though is - What works for you?

And this can only be answered by you. Only you can hone your personal system to work at your business. My system and processes may not be perfect for you or yours for me. The important thing is to keep honing and polishing your process as you work.

How?

Minimize, or completely ditch, the time you spend on things that do not add value to your business.

Maximize the time you spend on areas that need the most attention at the time. If you're starting up a new site you NEED posts and a lot of them. So ditch SEO for the moment and focus on great keywords and writing quality content.

Set S.M.A.R.T. goals. - I am a master at the SMART goal and have been using them for decades. I may even do a training on them if you are interested, let me now. For now Google them to find out what they are - yes some homework. :-)

Reward yourself for both little and big milestones and other achievements. Do not be afraid to celebrate, life is way to short not to.

Finally

I encourage you to give me a comment on your first impression of Wealthy Affiliate when you came aboard. In a sentence or two how did you feel, what did you think, did you have expectations, preconceived notions, etc etc?

ROCK ON!
