Kyle and Carson show you the way to success............................I'll show you the way to failure.

For the brand new, straight out of the gate, newbie.

This will be a short blog because I don't really have much to offer in terms of training or guidance. In fact, although I've had a lot of fun here, and plan on being here for years to come, I haven't actually accomplished anything at all. Oh and this isn't really a step by step, it just sounded funny for the title but if you are interested in failing there's lots of good information here. I still have a free account for now. I'm gonna go premium tomorrow. I should have already but it doesn't really matter because I wasn't serious or focused. To be honest, I didn't expect WA to be anything other than another "Work at home job opportunity in your underwear making $13,000 every day for waking up and never pay bills again because you're too busy driving around your brand new yacht in your brand new lambo with the wipers on because it's raining money...........". Well it isn't.
I signed up for the free trial. Seemed to fit my budget so why not splurge a little right? Right, moving on. So the first thing I noticed was the WA website. Looked clean, professional, not cheap and well built. At least from my perspective. I'm not very computer savvy but I'm getting there. Nice site but lots of bogus programs have quality sites. Started reading into it, maintaining skepticism as with anything, quickly clicking through pages, etc. Then I found the tools I had access to. Totally had my attention then. Too bad I did'nt learn how to use them first. I guess it's that ADHD thing but I am a little compulsive at times. Lol. Good thing I was on a free trial, which brings us to my "garaunteed to work" system for failure.
So the way to really combat success is to get in there early and start not following the training as quickly as possible. The first thing you're going to want to do is go straight to Build Websites and make a completely uneducated guess for a web site name. This is a precaution just in case by some chance your website comes out somewhat decent, you will still have the security of a completely useless and ineffective name that will never get found. Now on to your sites framework. Click the first template you see. Ok that was easy. Now its best to make a lot of pages with no content relevant to anything. Since you don't know how to make pages, the best way is to just click buttons till something happens. Great work! you are well on your way to never being seen on the internet, but we aren't there yet. This isn't about failing at websites, it's about failing at Wealthy Affiliate so stay focused people. Don't forget to not fill out an about me page and paste yourself an affiliate link on there some where because you never know, right? So after you've made sure that all of your pages and links lead to a black hole in space somewhere you'll be set to go. Now head back over to WA.
This next part is crucial. Go into your profile and don't fill it out as soon as you finish not uploading a photo. Good work. Now onto keywords. These are specific words that help you get found by customers. Make sure you don't use any keywords that can be associated with the niche you never came up with. Now make sure to stay away from open chat. That place is swarming with successful people, and even worse, they relentlessly help new affiliates achieve success as well. The webinars, AKA "WAbinars" are notorious for being extremely informative and energetic, and have been known to cause critically high levels of motivation in most people. Don't go near them! And don't follow anyone because you may end up with useful tips and bits of knowledge being easier to access. Might not seem like much trouble now but later down the road when you're financially secure and happy with what you do for a living don't say I didn't warn you. You'll look back on all those years you spent not living check to ckeck and wonder how you dropped the ball and let your failure slip right through your fingers.
Now pay attention to this next part or you'll end up being able to pay your kid's college tuition some day. You need to understand that the pages and buttons here are very different than the ones on your site. Not only are they functional, they lead to actual destinations. Destinations that often turn out to be innovative, failure killing resources, the worst of which, being the "Training" page. You might have thought "Open Chat" would be the primary failure foiler because of it's infinite source of knowledge, but don't be fooled. "Training" is all that knowledge concentrated into organized learninng modules that have been reinforced with highly useful feedback. Trust me, if you go near "Training" you're an instant failed failure. Under "Main Menu" you will find a page called "Dashboard". Here is a place that is ideal for meandering aimlessly and accomplishing nothing, but only if you know what you're doing. I'm warning you, this is an excellent central base page that's extremely convenient and easy to navigate. It's user-friendly and plagued with efficiency. It's got drop down menus, a search bar, all your pertinent information and an extremly dangerous live chat feed. Very easy to get sidetracked and accidentally read something interesting. Next thing you know you're responding to something intelligent that was said by someone successful. And just like that, you end up hanging with the wrong crowd.
It starts out with little things like responding to a post or reading that convenient little preview of articles, allowing you to determine if you want to go to the full page. You tell yourself that it's just experimenting, or that you're gonna quit tomorrow. You say it's just one more keyword search, then another. This time you try to justify your motivation by saying it was a search for niche ideas. One thing leads to another and before you know it you're out there blogging and interacting with the community. You try to convince yourself that you can't do it and nobody likes you, but every time you log in more and more people are happy to see you and welcoming you back to the community. You try your best to maintain a failure-essential crap attitude. Every time you manage to acheive a good, failure-focused frame of mind you look over only to see that you have more followers. You start binge succeeding to the point where you're making money while you sleep. You get so strung out on self-confidence and inspiration that you don't even complain anymore. Your life becomes an out of control upward spiral and all hope for failure is lost.
So I hope I got through to you. WA is a dangerous place for people trying to fail, so unless you want to be seen as a prosperous, motivated and successful individual you may want to steer clear. I hope this helps the aspiring loser and if you need help you may be on your own. It's too late for me..........................I've learned to much.
