Dazed but Determined

First, just for the record, the dazed feeling is lessening. It just comes and goes :)
The last couple of days I have had mixed feelings. Happy mixed with a little confusion, a little frustration here and there, impatience, a little fear, passion and tiredness. About a week ago, I felt really lost. Not so much lost regarding the WA training, more lost in terms of my life and what I was doing. What I wanted my life to be like. And how was I going to get there.
I never thought of quitting WA, but I felt a little discouraged and exhausted(the exhaustion because I insisted on learning so much within too short of a time). What helps with that is to making short term goals and long term goals. And I make a list every day of what I have accomplished, because even when I think I have not learned much or done enough work, I can look at my list, and say "Hey, I DID do some things today. And these things will help me reach my goal-little by little, step by step." Seeing this on paper in black and white, really helps me remember what I have done, and makes me excited for the next day's work.

I can think more clearly now though. Before, I was worrying when I didn't need to. I was over-complicating the whole situation. I just need to keep the determination up, and learn how to have more faith. More faith in myself and more faith in the whole process here. And an amazing thing that I have learned lately, is that each person here is an inspiration in their own way. It is pretty neat to be in that kind of environment!
Two of my long term goals are to have 2 websites. One would be having a successful site promoting Wealthy Affiliate, and the other one would be for helping others have a better life, get housing, etc. But the second site is a long, long way off. I have no idea of how that will come together, but I have faith that I will learn how when the time is right. And I am going to just stick like glue (rofl, me and my strange humor)to the WA Affiliate site, until I have the experience and success to move on to another site-that will be a while for me, but that is OK. But I will always stay with WA. It is a terrific place to be able to use, even if you already have a business.
Life is pretty strange lately, but a good strange. I found WA by accident. A scam type of program led me here! That is pretty ironic. I was researching them and found WA. So I guess the scammers' scam backfired on them. (if that makes sense-it backfired on them because I left their site, and found a legitimate site-and they lost money and a sucker) Maybe I should send them a thank you note!
I love quotes lately-they just seem to give me extra determination and and inspiration, so I am closing this blog/post with one. .And I am done with living the ordinary life/the safe life. It is time to accomplish my goal of having a success online business. Then show others how to do it. And to also show friends and family that I found a place that is real, and not a scam. I don't think my friends and family realize yet how serious I am, and how this online business can be a reality, and be a success. With time, of course. Failure is impossible if you don't give up or give in.
