My Success Story

Good Morning,

I do hope this blog post finds all well and safe. It appears most of the world is beginning to or has already opened back up from the pandemic.

But that is not the reason I come to you today. I want to write a success story because we all love success. It gives us strength. But today, I will write this to me as a reminder of the incredible strides I am making.

When I hit a down day, and I will for it is inevitable, I will look back at this post and gain strength from it once again.

My Websites

I have three sites here at WA. One is my poetry and inspiration/motivation site. For the moment, this one is dormant, with over 140 posts on it. I shall begin work on it again soon because it is my passion.

I recently started a new site dealing with DNA. By recently, I mean it is five months old. So that is not very new, but it feels recent to me.

My third site is my MMO site, where I promote WA. This site is two years old. It is built up and healthy but had and still has some glitches. I have spent so much time developing it that I got lost on the way up. I was stuck on the 98th step of a 100-step ladder headed up to reach my dreams.

I am sure many know what I mean. I am sure you have experienced this also.

WA Freinds And Support

I have had help from some knowledgeable and incredible WA members along the way. I received invaluable advice from a select few. Those select few have kept me going in times of frustration and doubt. You know exactly who you are.

Those valuable friends would go out of their way to assist me because we care about each other. I know they too are swamped and always appreciate the help, but oh how I hate to bother them.

So, before I threw in the towel, after two long hard years of creating, I dug deep into my pocket and sought out help from another reputable source. I joined up with Jay on his monthly program.

New Awareness

He has looked at my sites and given me advice that brought new awareness to my world of online business.

The part of this blog that is a success story is; Right away, he gave me suggestions to make changes. I followed through will all of them. With the very first one, I saw an increase in my traffic on both sites.

It started with an increase of 100 people to my site, then the growth went up to 200, and now each day I check my analytics, I am having a 300+ increase in traffic.

We all know that free organic traffic is money in the bank. That is what WA teaches us over and over again.

If you look back at my blog posts, you will see that I have never posted a true personal success story. I knew that success is not just monetary, but it is in creation and accomplishments.

66 Steps Forward

I am posting my success story now as a reminder to me that I am no longer taking 1 step forward and 3 steps back. I am taking 3 steps forward and 1 step back. When that one step back happens, I will look back at this post and remember that I am 99 steps ahead and only 33 steps back. I am 66 steps forward on my road to Vegas.

What is your success story? How long did it take you to figure out that money is not success? Money is a by-product of success! Don't get me wrong; I do love the money also.
