Even That Tiny Little Step Forward Matters.
We all have ultra productive days, and days when it feels like we haven't done much to contribute to our business, or our success.
The KEY is moving forward, and taking even the slightest steps. As cliche as it is, to reach the pinnacle of any mountain it is a collection of a bunch of smaller steps.
So whether you spend a few minutes researching for a new article while you are in the grocery line up, of when you get up before work you are spending time writing your articles, these are the steps that add up, and lead to much bigger accomplishments.
Take these small steps, and continue take them. Your business will thank you!

Hey Kyle
Yes, I have seen this going on. I have been bombarded with ads, and free trial offers from Jasper.
To me, that is the same or worse than plagiarism. I would never use it.
Seems like it could mess one up in other ways as well. A machine speaking in your place.
I'm not that great at it yet, but I like creating my content.
I don't want to get knocked out of the saddle with Google. I have enough trouble don't need any help 😂
Thanks for the video.
Chet
Yeah, it is worse than plagiarism. DO NOT put AI generated content on your business, that will be the demise of many businesses online that are fooled into thinking that AI content is not going to be detected and punished by search engines. It will.
There are several applications to AI, but content for the purposes of SEO is not one of them.
Hey Kyle,
That's great that you clued everyone in on that.
It would be easy for someone to get sucked into something like that.
Look at all the money they would waste because they are proud of that Jasper I saw.
I want to be proud of my work, and learning it is the only way to be proud. I will get it down one day. 😂
Thanks, Chet
Kyle, this is URGENT!! I'm trying to upgrade to premium but I don't know how to contact anybody in the office at WA. I have been working with my credit card company and they say there is no reason my transaction won't go through. WA kept showing up as 'possible fraud' so my card kept blocking it. I got that straightened out but now they say it's on your end - something has flagged my card now because I tried to use it so many times yesterday. How can we figure this out so I can join?? Help! Thank you, Linda
Yeah, no problem. I am going to get you sorted here right away Linda, I see that you reached the maximum failure threshold within our payment platform because of this, and we are going to reset that for you.
This should be sorted out for you within the next 10 minutes, at which time attempt payment again. Let me know if you have any further issues, I will help you work through this here Linda.
You should be all sorted now Linda. Let me know if the payment doesn't go through with your next attempt.
True words, Kyle. Every step adds up in the end.
I find that I have done a fair amount of work, after all, reflecting on the week that has passed every Sunday.
I usually get up at 5 AM each morning and get some work done for my business before leaving for my daytime job.
Roy
Awesome Roy, that is how it is done. Making time that didn't once exist and using that time to be productive. :)
The best part about getting up that early is the silence. Everything is so quiet for a good hour and a half or so.
A perfect time to enjoy a great cup of coffee while brainstorming and writing ☕️😊.
I agree Roy, I get up early too around 4:00 to 5am, I prefer this time for silence also. It really helps concentration and can get so motivated for the whole day.
Wishing you all the best.
Erica
Hi, Erica. I call it the golden hours of the day. If I´m not up at that time and sleep in a few more hours, the rest of the day can become a little bit unfocused.
Roy
Hello Kyle,
Thank you for your blog post, it's appreciated.
It's actually quite refreshing to hear that other people and highly successful people have days that are not quite as productive as they would like! As time is so valuable, I must admit that I find it a bit frustrating when I don't achieve as much as I would like!
The best thing that I find I can do for productivity is to start early in the morning. I appreciate that it doesn't suit everyone. However, for me, getting up at 5 AM gives me at least two hours without any disturbances, normally and that's worth a lot!
Have a great day.
Roy
Yeah, we all have our moments. I get almost a sense of guilt when I feel as though I am not working hard enough at a given moment, and this is often times the result of being distracted.
I do feel that those that are successful do work harder and are willing to make more sacrifice, but every day is not built the same. We have some days where we walk, and other days where we run...and I think that is a healthy mix for building a business.
If you are always running you get "burn out" and that is something that is an environment that no business can thrive in.'
I hear you, Kyle, distractions are not good! If I get distracted too many times, I completely lose the flow of work!
Yes, indeed, I definitely agree that successful people generally work harder and make sacrifices and are also willing to keep pushing through whatever the situation. I must admit that I feel slightly frustrated and beaten down when I have achieved what I want to. I am not sure if that's good or bad!
Burnout is not good; I see where you're coming from, though.
Have a great Friday and a very happy weekend.

Hi Kyle!
Finally got time to watch your video blogs.
Just love this.
I have always believed in microsteps and I use this method myself.
Since I started in WA I have gone from being a totally green Newbie to
actually help others while building my own brand and business.
I am doing this part time so time management is important.
Still have lots to learn, but every step has a value.
Right now I am working on creating my own small product in cooperation with another marketer and to be more consistent with writing helpful articles and building an email list.
Microsteps, love that. I might have to use that language in the future as it sounds achievable, because it is. People are fixated too much on HUGE accomplishment, but they fail to realize that this significant accomplishments they see people achieving around them are the results of 100's of little steps.
