Despite the Negative Press

Well I am less than a month into this journey and I already feel like I kinda know what I'm doing.

I actually got the idea of starting a blog over two years ago. A friend of mine said I should have one because I always had interesting things to say and she would love to read it. I started thinking about it and the natural fit for a niche was homeschooling. And I started a list of topics I would write about. Every time I thought of a new one I'd add it to the list.

The problem was every time I thought about actually getting started with the technical part of blogging I felt like Bob Wiley from What About Bob. "dizzy spells, nausea, hot sweats, cold sweats, fever blisters, difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, blurred vision, involuntary trembling, dead hands, numb lips, fingernail sensitivity, pelvic discomfort"

Truth be told I actually started my first blog a few months ago. But it was painful, embarrassing, frankensteinian monstrosity that just wasn't working. But here I am a few weeks into wealthy affiliate and I feel like a blogger. I feel like I could actually tell my friends about my blog and I wouldn't be embarrassed.

My goal for the next 3 months is to just continue to work through the training, a little bit every day and add to my blog as I go. And within 6 months I want to be earning at least $2k/month from all my sites (because of course I'll have several by then).

After that who knows. Maybe I'll take up sailing.
