Goals are Nothing without Persistence and self Discipline
We all have dreams, we all want big things in our lives. That is the reason We have been searching for that break through, right!. Waiting for our Aha! moment; that moment when we'll say: "Aha! Now I get it"
Everyday I wake up around 1:00 AM; looking for that special tool which will get me where I've dreamt to be. Then I realized; many people are succeeding online and still don't utilize half of the tools I have. So what is my problem? What is taking me so long to see the light?
Self-Assessment
After doing a quick Self-Assessment I realized the solution to my problem was not in more tools; but in me. So, I am not proud to say that I scored very high in the Goals setting area; but, did very poorly in the Discipline and persistence area. Which tells me that my success will come once I aquire those two little habits.
My biggest mistake was; I had spread myslelf way too thin. I had started too many projects all at the same time. I was not Focus! It is more effective to go deep than to go wide. Every time a new idea came into my mind, I created a new site. I kept losing sight of my first project, and had never taken time to perfection any of my niches.
Although; my score card has no smiling faces on it; I was happy to know what was stopping me. "They say Knowing is half the battle." So Now I know.
I believe the Wealthy Affiliate Program is complete. It includes all that we need to create a successful online business. However, WA is only a vehicle; we are the driver. As we continue to work in our business,we must also invest in ourselves. We must work as hard to keep ourselves accountable. We must keep looking in the mirror and ensure we remain discipline and persistent.
Cheeers.

Hi Joakin,
Sounds to me like you have found the answer to your problem. Its' one that we all have. You might throw in one other and that's called procrastination. We are all heir to that one in various degrees. For that little beauty I borrow from the Book."Procrastination, be thou gone and be thou cast into the sea." Can be used as an affirmation and spoken often during the day.....Dick
