Well the proof of the pudding is in the eating. i am sure when that happens the mockers will be people you will not invite. Why? because they are negative and you will be so so positive

I'm blessed with an understanding wife, but possibly because I told her at the outset that this might take a year or longer. Those who don't know, or haven't been primed, expect it to be a one month process, and when you make nothing in the first 4 weeks their critical gene kicks in. Those who stick at it can make serious money on a regular basis, ethically and with no upline to feed.

It's about managing their expectations.

well this is the case with most innovative and positive people all around the world..don't give a damn about any such idea that discourages you..You will surely have success if you have faith on your ability...all the best :)..-Hari

Thanks for understanding, I am finding it easier just to keep things to myself. It is nice to at least have someone out there I can talk to.

You are not alone. I have had the same problems with my wife and other people Through the years, I have proven them wrong and that keeps the wolves at bay, so to speak. Good luck and keep pushing on as long as you believe in yourself.

Prove them wrong! My wife is sceptical, I spend so much time and only have one sale to show for it so far. I must be on 2c an hour if that. She did get a bit excited when I got free comics to review though:)

That is not the point, like you said it's education, a hobby at the very least. I could easily spend the same amount of money and time on games or comics or coffee or anything else. Some of us could be down the pub, spending far more time and money.
There are worse things to do and if you do this right ( and there is no reason you cant with the help there is here) it can cover its own costs if that is all you want or fire your boss or make you a fortune. It is really up to you.

There are lots of people here who have been through similar stuff and are happy to help out in what ever way they can. Hang in there, we believe you can do it!

I understand and have experienced these people as well in my life. There are people here at WA to cheer you on to your success. Much success to you.

I really feel you. I've met a lot f those people my self. But that makes me more determent to succeed. Just to show them that my determination really paid of. If I had given up then i wouldn't have ended up here in this nice community called WA

Use that as motivation to make you succeed even more. I think we have all run into people doubting us at one point or another. Why not get the to join? It will make a believer out of a non believer...

And yes, you absolutely have the community behind you here at WA!

Hey I know exactly what you are going through...been there...done that, not the wife and mother bit of course. You're in the right place to make money and make em eat crow.(:o)
