Putting it out there, building my confidence...

So far, I've been able to set up my website, have experienced a huge learning curve and overcome many fears on this journey so far. I've only been doing this for over 2 months.

One issue I have noticed though is the lack of confidence or belief from my friends in my ability of being able to make money from doing my blog. Admittedly, I've yet to make any money, and am okay with this, as I feel so green and new at this. But I know it's possible, and am willing to do the hard yards, am persistent and open to learning as I progress through the certifications and improve my site.

I am still in the process of being approved with cj.com, was rejected by adsense for no obvious reason and am in the process of finding a range of affiliates, as well as getting stuck at times with creating new blog posts, and still haven't figured out how to place side bar advertisements but the progress is there nonetheless. Despite these set backs, I see this as contributing to my determination to keep going, I can see how much I've learnt and grown so far, and know that now's not the time to quit.

I am having fun working through the unknown and learning, even though this can be frustrating at times, but I'm okay with sitting with this and working through anyway.

I value and appreciate all of the support from this amazing community which proves itself to me increasingly as I involve myself more and continue to progress through the certifications. Thanks for taking the time to stop by xx
