Moving Forward like Mr. Turtle.But I am Moving!

Have you ever heard the story of the turtle and the hare? The turtle is soooo much slower than the hare...but eventually he wins the race because he keeps going. So I am hoping I end up like Mr. Turtle...because I sure am starting out like him!!

I am just in the middle of my second month at WA. I am struggling with writing posts...none of my posts on my website are 1000 words long. But I put them up anyway. I am following the training as best as I can. I try to do something every day, even if it's small.

I have been working on changing my mindset. People always advertise that they made X amount in 30 days, but they don't ever tell you all the work that led up to that. Here at WA, I find people actually do say that they worked for a year or two before they had their big month. I always thought that if I wasn't making money in a certain amount of time, I must be doing something wrong.

I would love to be one of those people who start a business and a few months later are making thousands of dollars. Patience has never been a strong quality of mine. This is another thing I will need to learn..LOL! But I just have to remember how fast time goes. I have been trying to do this off and on for quite a while. I wish I could have found WA sooner! I have heard that when the student is ready, the teacher will appear. Maybe that's why I didn't find it before.

So I am just going slowly but surely, step by step. Just following the yellow brick road till I get to Emerald City.
