Well, I'm biting the bullet.

I still don't have a lot of money right now and I of course wasn't expecting to make any money in my full month here at WA and owning my site. In between now and when I first started I was in the process of moving and trying to find a new job, which pushed me to want to try something like WA and making a website to earn money full time.
Well, my primal fight or flight instinct part of my brain is telling me to quit and cancel my membership right now to save money.
In debating my situation, I started my new job recently, working for another company that "cares" about me. Working stressful days and getting chewed out by customers. This is all I'm worth? I don't want this for myself. I want more for myself. I AM better than this and I am not meant to work for others.

If I give up what I have at WA and if I give up on my site... well what will that get me a year from now? Another depressing year at a job that spits people out and chews them up? Maybe in a year from now I can earn somewhat of a living or something from WA and my site. Who knows? Maybe not in a year, but it's all up in the air. To be honest, I have a lot of confidence in my niche and I can really see it EXPLODING, and I want to take advantage of it.
I just wanted to write my feelings and that I will take another risk in my life and start trying to make a change, even if it hurts me a little bit financially in the process. I'm not here to rush the process of trying to earn money with affiliate marketing. Heck, I'm taking my time and I'm still on course 3 on the certification (I'm almost done, I promise)
Here I am sitting here writing this with a headache from working another blasted 4:30am to 10:15am shift because of having a crappy job. Well, anyways I've decided to renew my membership and luckily I am getting paid tomorrow.
For those of you who don't know, I'm also a cartoonist and one day I hope to sustain myself through making my comics and affiliate marketing. It can happen, so I'm not giving up just yet. I'm hoping to either save up for yearly membership, but we will see.
Thanks for reading.
