Be the turtle.

When I first joined WA, July 27th of this year, I was excited and overwhelmed! This was what I had dreamed of for some time now, but I knew so very little about computers and all this affiliate marketing stuff!
But I rolled up my sleeves and went to work. I spend long hours in the training and asking MANY questions. I read a lot of blogs and I ask MORE questions.
The wealth of information on here is WONDERFUL, and scary beyond belief!
Information overload!
It is like being back in college! Exhausting and exhilarating!

But I still get overwhelmed at times!
However, I just take my time. I Ignore all the stuff that I don't understand yet, and try to concentrate on the training. Things are slowly coming into focus. I learn something new every day!
I heard it once said that the best way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time.
My advice to newbies that are feeling overwhelmed is to just take small bites of that elephant and chew them carefully. Swallow, then rest before you tackle the next one.
Just take it slowly. Remember the story of the tortoise and the hare? It was the turtle that won the race, not the rabbit.
This is not a race, of course...
...But if it were. Be the turtle.
