Just Like Building a Model Kit

I don't know about you, but as a kid, I built countless models. Some were airplanes, others ships, and there were some spaceships too. I also built several cars and trucks - and a few other things.

My wife and I are now setting up our office - and to save money most of the office furniture was bought unassembled - and guess who gets to put it all together?

So far I have built two desks, two more smaller work station desk like things ( that's what I call them because Ikea's name for them makes no sense to me), two cabinets, one more massive cabinet, a printer storage thingy, two office chairs, and a few other odds and ends - and I am not done yet.

At least the stacks of boxes is getting smaller!

Anyway, back to the story. As I sit here in my office building all this stuff and studying the directions (pictures anyway ; ) it occurs to me how much of life is much like that - taking instructions (information/training/pictures) and putting all the little parts together in a certain sequence to produce a finished product.

Whether a model plane, a desk, a full-sized boat - or even a business - there are instructions available to show you how it all goes together.

Wealthy Affiliate provides just such instructions - and training, support, and other resources - to help you build your own business successfully over time.

Just remember to follow the directions and actually do the work. Just like that box of desk parts isn't going to assemble itself - neither is your business!

Have a great day and make it count!

Best regards,

L.D. Sewell

Haha! Great analogy L.D!

Only I believe that the instructions and training here are much easier to follow than any "put together yourself" Ikea instructions!

I have had a lot of experience when it comes to putting Ikea furniture together (my wifes favourite store for the home, not mine)! But a rubber mallet or at least a soft hammer, are essential tools when assembling this stuff!

I hope all is well with the new office space my friend.:-)

I think you are right - - WA instructions are much better!

Good one LD, keep building, keep writing.

An excellent analogy, LD! I feel your pain!

I love this analogy. It mimics our training and our journey. And if one piece is missing, then the entire thing is unstable.
Thank you so much for sharing
PS: I love assembling stuff from Ikea as well as building furniture from scratch
