Turning Dreams Into Reality
Turning Dreams Into Reality
I just woke up this morning feeling a bit inspired so I decided to write a quick blog post for everyone out here in the WA community.
When I got started about 8 days ago, I was thinking about literally just taking a quick browse at this site. I had no idea what it was about and I surely wasn't aware of how many members we have here.
My dream before starting any Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) ventures has always been to become an affiliate marketer. Since the day I was exposed to the idea, I instantly knew that affiliate marketing was the route I wanted to take for my career.
I veered from the path many of times, but I find myself once again trying to do the same thing I attempted so many times in the past.
What's Different This Time?
I have had this sickening motivation ever since I have started WA and I tried thinking about what was sparking such enthusiasm into creating my own business.
After thinking long and hard about it, I decided that it was having this wonderful community of people that can not only motivate you every single day but also help you in the process of growing your business.
Every other course or product that I have purchased related to internet marketing had pretty good material inside.
Undoubtedly, I truly believe one could be successful with the information provided in them.
But one thing was always lacking and that was a community of like-minded individuals trying to do the same thing you are in the process of doing.
Enough Talking! Why are you Taking So Much ACTION?
First of all, I am making sacrifices that I previously was unwilling to do for any business venture.
I am giving up sleep and school (for the moment, not permanent) in an attempt to start my own online business.
You see, I've learned in past couple of months by reading motivational and inspiring content that one must be willing to sacrifice something in exchange for success.
It was Napolean Hill that stated an exchange of this sort must be made if you plan on being successful.
Now I get up every single day at 4 AM or 5 AM to work on my business. I have utilized well over 40 hours these past 7 days alone on my business.
Do I say this brag? No.
Do I say this to motivate you? Yes.
So What Are You Going to Sacrifice?
I want anyone reading this to take a step back and ask yourself "What are you sacrificing in order to run a successful business?"
Everyone in this world can come up with a million excuses as to why they can't work on their website. Kids, family, work, girlfriend, boyfriend, school and a hundred other things that have nothing to do with running your business.
Know that you MUST make a sacrifice of some sort in your life or you will find it extremely difficult to run an effective business.
So stop making excuses as to why you can't do this and start finding ways to better utilize your time. Whether you have to wake up early as hell or stay up till the crack of dawn, JUST DO IT!
As always, thanks for reading and I hope to hear from other WA members :D

Wonderful insights for someone so young! I love Napoleon Hill's writings and you will be successful with your mindset! Thank you for sharing your thoughts today!
Me too! I find his work to be very inspiring and to the point when it comes to training your mind to be successful. Thanks for your comment :D
Thanks so much for this encouraging blog. You are so right! Determining what you are willing to sacrifice is one of the first things you have to seriously decide on as an entrepreneur. A support system is a must for success, no matter where or how you find it. I clicked on the wrong thing when WA fell into my lap...what a wonderful surprise and the best community ever :)
Thanks for your feedback on the blog post! I'm so glad you found it to be motivating and I'm looking forward to hearing about your success in the coming months :)
Jonathan...and there you have it....the old adage "if you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch" were never more true....thanks for jacking up our little comfort zones just a little. I saw something online the other day:
If your dreams don't scare you....
THEY'RE NOT BIG ENOUGH
So, my peeps, reach for the stars and stretch yourself a lot....it will pay off in the long run. Thanks for this, Jonathan....and say hi to your gorgeous friend!

Thanks for sharing that quote! It is so true that everyone must dream big in order to achieve great things.
And I will ;)
Much success to you, Suz!
Every successful person here at WA I'm sure would agree with you. I go to work feeling exhausted every day and the only thing that keeps me going is the passion that I get to blog about and shoot videos every day about.
Keep up the hard work! I know it will be worth it in the end :D

Good driving and I totally agree with you, all it takes is sacrifice...
Thanks for your comment! And yes, sacrifice is a crucial part of success. Unfortunately, we only get 24 hours in a day but if you manage your time wisely, you can get a lot accomplished in this time frame :)
Have seen results yet or too early for that??
I've seen lots of great results so far! I got my first subscriber on YouTube two days ago. I have over 70 combined views on all the videos I have uploaded. I have been getting over 25 visitors on page for the past week (thanks to everyone here at WA).
I am not promoting anything at the moment. I am simply continuing my website with the intention to provide value and have fun :)
I will definitely get around to integrating the money part but for now I will just enjoy the small victories!
How about you? Any luck with the site? Any results you would like to share with me? Let me know :)
