When the Going Gets Tough

Wherever you are in the world, good Sunday to you! The first week of our 30 day blogging challenge is in the books. If you are participating in the challenge and you are reading this, good for you! I'm glad to have you on board, keep up the good work!

I'd also like to acknowledge all of our fellow Wealthy Affiliates that have been following our progress and cheering us on. Thank you everybody, it really does help to read the encouragement you leave us in your comments.

A very special hat tip goes out to our fine Ambassador Michael (Ultimateless) for his continued efforts in updating and motivating us with his daily posts. He's been the glue that binds us together in this challenge and he deserves a round of applause!

I guess it wouldn't be called a challenge if it wasn't challenging. Life has a habit of getting in the way of our goals sometimes. This is getting more and more apparent to me as the days of this challenge count down. The going has definitely gotten tough.

If you haven't read my post titled Fail to Plan, Plan to Fail, I mention that my biggest weakness is planning my daily posts in advance. While this continues to be a struggle, I'm finding that balancing my work schedule, family life and blogging commitments is an even greater struggle.

I really hope that by the time this challenge is complete, I will have learned a more effective activity management system. Any suggestions?

Finally, it wouldn't be Sunday without some inspiration. I found a great little quote by a man that knows something about adversity. During World War II, he held his country together in the face of insurmountable odds and came out the other side victorious.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend. Keep digging challengers, we're a quarter of the way there! I'll see you all at the finish line!

As always, thank you for reading this,

John
