My Progress is Slow, But Moving

Judy-B

Published on December 21, 2014

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

I started in May of 2014.Seven months already and I have a website with articles and pictures.I have followed the course, been stuck and frustrated almost to tears, (well, maybe there were a few, I cry easily), but I keep going and trying.It’s the technical stuff that gets me the worst.

Thanks to this wonderful group of people here at Wealthy Affiliate, we lovingly refer to as family, I get the help I seek.I ask a question and get an answer almost before I’m finished asking.I said that earlier on a comment.A helping hand reaches out and I find myself being able to finish the task.Then it’s on to the next lesson and the process starts all over again.

I have wanted to start my own business for a long time.I hate going to work and being at someone else’s beck and call.I give up my time, hours, and minutes to make someone a millionaire and I barely get by.My present job, along with stress and intimidation, leaves me achy, tired, and a bit whiney.

Where I’m at now in my WA journey is being the owner of my own website, www.purplesagewesternridinggear.com.I’ve had a couple of websites before, one that I tried to build myself (yeah, that was a joke), and another that someone else built then kind of left me hanging.They took a bunch of money first so I guess they got something out of the deal.

I haven’t made money yet, but the potential is there.The blueprint is marked out.The website is the foundation and the content is the walls and rooms.Our websites are our homes and futures.

I’ve learned so much here.Not only about building a business, but also about a worldwide togetherness in this awesome community. The connections I’ve made with people all over are amazing and make my life richer.I am happy to be a part of it all.I thank God for leading me here.

I add my thank you to Kyle and Carson for the opportunity to be a part of the group and all their great training.I thank Nathaniell for all his help and his site One More Cup of Coffee that through reading his blog got me to Wealthy Affiliate.

Thank you everyone.

Have a great and blessed day.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Judy
