I've been involved in marketing for about 20 years now; both on and off the internet. I have found that the one thing that pays off is persistence. I took a year off from WA and now I am back. Starting over again. Many things have changed and I have developed some bad work habits.

So I'm starting over just as if I was a beginner and learning from the ground up. I already feel like it is paying off. One of the things that has helped me was reading a book by Josh Kaufman titled "The First 20 hours". He talks about learning how to do anything in 20 hours. Will you be a master...no! But you should be able to do it with some competency; well enough for some self satisfaction. He has many suggestions that I have found helpful in his book. I probably should set this up so I could earn a commission if you bought his book. But I just want to help anyone who takes the time to read this. It is a small book and worth the read.

It has always seemed like when I was about to quit, That was when I was breaking through to succeed. So when you are thinking about quitting realize you too are probably about to have a breakthrough. Nothing worth having was gained without some good old fashioned hard work. So when you are most tempted and hardest hit, don't you quit!
