It's Difficult. But I Won't Give Up

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

I started my journey in early Nov of last year. It's only been 2 1/2 months and I've gotten my websites indexed and made my first sales.

But the hardest part is promoting my website... I run a CBD website, and while it's content is true and legitimate people don't want to promote it since it's still considered a drug in some company's eyes. Yes, a drug (I'm looking at you Pinterest!).

Google isn't indexing my pages, either. I've requested they do so, but that was 2 weeks ago, and the message still says "this page isn't indexed, but not because of an error," which means everyone is still on lunch break I suppose.

Not to mention that everyday life takes up 90% of my day. It's hard to find time to build my website, let alone find creative ways to promote it and wonder why my posts aren't indexing in Google.

All in all, I feel like I've hit a wall. It's very easy to give up right now since the pressure of everyday life is so great.

But, you know what? I have faith that CBD will become accepted as a healing agent instead of a drug. I have faith that this new bill will pass and CBD will be able to be marked as a dietary supplement. And I still have faith that I can make a living doing what I love most - bringing accurate and informative information to the table and letting people decide for themselves.

Is it hard to keep up with it all? Immensely. More than I ever thought it would be. But I'm going to keep on going, because the more I manifest the less obstacles stand in my way. The life I want isn't as far away as I imagine...

Cheers all!
