Stepping backwards
Well fellow affiliates, it appears that I have to reconstruct my foundation. I started level 3 training and applied for a few affiliate programs and was not accepted on any. It's not hard for me to figure that my website will not draw traffic due to how unorganized it is. As I read my content I realized that it really is not helpful to my intended audience. It didn't seem to have any consistency or direction. I am having to start over almost completely. I had to erase every single page or post I wrote and start writing new ones. I have realized that some good has come out of this because now I am a bit wiser and more experienced. I have been working on my main page for almost a week now and it is starting to look more like it has meaningful and engaging content. This certainly is going to take time. Despite this set back I feel good because I haven't given up and am willing to continue. I noticed there are quite a few people in the Wealthy Affiliate community who get things up and running pretty fast. As encouraging as that is I made the mistake of letting that blind me from my own limits. Things are just different for some people. We all have a certain pace that we are comfortable with and perform at our best. I write this because I want any new comers to know that if they are experiencing similar problems that they are not alone. We all get a bitter taste of failure at some point in our lives. The way you act upon your failures is what shines you up for success. Quitting once and for all is what leaves you in the dust. Always be willing to give your self a fighting chance.

Hi JoCam,
I think everybody is dealing with things that you experience in different level and different situation. I experience the same thing even in a more simpler level than what you have achieved. I guess it doesn't really matter how or what we fail. As long as we realize it, change, it do something to make it better then everything will be ok.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. You show us persistence,courage and a big heart. I'm very sure you're going to succeed.
It's important that we all communicate whatever troubles and successes we have so that we can learn from each other, that is one of the greatest things about WA is that we can all help each other in some way and I am thankful for that.
Hi JoCam,
You are not alone. Last week was my turn. I wrote it up here. Growing Pains It is easy to give in to fear. I was afraid even to write, but I took courage and wrote another blog and published it. Be of good cheer. This is just the pain of growing up. Blessings as you persevere. Esther

Hi Jonathan, it happens to the best of us. Did you get declined from joining an offer or from joining an affiliate program within an affiliate network?
I wouldn't recommend deleting anything. I think it can be easier to improve upon content you have already written than write from scratch. Of course in the end it's totally up to you.
The more you write the easier it will become and the better you'll get. Keep your chin up and stick with the process. :)
I believe it can be done!
