I Missed Out on This Opportunity
I'm sitting here at home, pretty much self-isolating like everybody else, and I don't have any passive income coming in.
I do have retirement income, so I'm fine, but no passive money from my online business.
Why is that?
It's because I've been working WITHOUT any sense of urgency for the almost three years I've been with WA.
That's neither good nor bad, it's just a fact.
If I'd been more focused, I could easily have a solid income from my online business by now. If I could have seen the future, I would have worked a lot harder.

Anyone else in my boat?

I can change that for the next time I'm stuck at home without being able to go out and do stuff.
I could have helped a lot of people over the last couple of years prepare themselves for the day that they would lose their jobs over the coronavirus. It's too late right now.
There are probably a lot of people who have lost work, through no fault of their own, who are looking online for income opportunities to replace lost wages. A lot of these people will be scammed.
People who join WA now will have to go through the training and the time and effort to become authority sites, and this virus will be gone way before they get there.
We can help prepare people for the next time they may be laid off because of some crisis or other, though.
Yesterday is in the past, tomorrow never gets here. We only have today.
As my dad used to tell us kids growing up whenever we lost out on an opportunity or screwed up somehow, "Let that be a lesson to you!"
Remember, we only fail when we quit. I may be a slow starter, but I haven't quit. I can learn from my past and get a sense of urgency. My success will come, especially if I get busy and make it happen.
I'm Grant
