Baby Steps Towards Progress

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

I am very new to this world of online business, marketing, websites, blogging, etc. I am often reading things several times before taking action to ensure I understand it all - yet I still don't. My progress has been relatively slow over the past week, but there has been progress. I feel a great sense of accomplishment at finishing a lesson and being able to move on to the next. I think the main thing for those that might be struggling is to keep focusing on your goal. It will come. For some, it will come via giant leaps. For others, like me, it will come via baby steps.

And if you have scrapped a few ideas already or created multiple websites because you didn't like the first one or made some mistakes (like I did), try not to get discouraged. I believe you are in good company. :) At everything we do, we always see others who seem to know everything and imagine that could never be us, but I'm not really worried about that. The community seems so strong, I feel I could already ask a handful of people and get what I need. I am learning, retention might be far off, but I am learning.

Completed the first 4 lessons of the Bootcamp - thanks to all for your support.
