Fear: Doesn't Mean You Stop.
I don't know about many of you, but this whole thing is a little scary and overwhelming! But that leads me to what I want to say.
Does that fear cripple me or does it motivate me? I have let fear, fear of failure and even fear of success stop me at times. This time, I cannot and will not let the fears that come and being overwhelmed stop me.
So how do we do that?
First, keep going. Don't stop coming here to this site and working on our pages, training, and finding new friends. It is easy to skip a few days and then not come back for a week, a month or even longer.
Second, find the joy in the journey. It is a lot easier if the journey is happy and joyful, rather than frustrating and sad. I have found joy in learning about new people, I would have never met any other way. People from all over the world. I have found joy in learning new things. I have found joy in working on something that will be beneficial to me and others for the rest of my life.
Third, remember why we started the journey. As I have read many peoples stories, we came here because we were tired of life as it was. There may have been many reasons-too many hours, not appreciated, no real future, fear of losing the job (and then what do we do.) Don't lose track of what brought us to this place to start with.
Fear can be a stopping place or it can give us the motivation that we need. I chose to keep moving!!!

Hi Harold.
This is a great first post you have written and you have a very positive attitude.
I think most people are the same as you when they first join. because when you see what you have to do you think that you cannot do it.
But if you take your time on each lesson and ask for help from the community. every day gets more easy and enjoyably.
Just keep thinking positive Ken and i'm sure you will reach your goals and dreams.
Thanks for the response. I appreciate your input. This promises to be a fun and fulfilling journey.
Great post and great attitude. I am really enjoying this journey as well. I never knew there was so much that went into a successful website. WA has been so informative and I look forward to learning new things and tweaking my site. I get joy out if seeing my site grow and get better day by day.
