The Fork In The Road

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

There comes a time in everyone's journey when they must choose which direction they want to go in. That time has come for me and I am faced with that choice. Should I keep doing the same thing I started doing when I first signed up at Wealthy Affiliate? Or has the time come to change direction?

Now I am armed with the knowledge that WA has given me and I have a better understanding of how I should set up and run my online business. Even though what I have already done has given me some success it has not done what I hoped. This has nothing to do with the training, it has to do with how I used or misused that training.

In the beginning, I stumbled around without any real direction and I can't help thinking about what Einstein said about insanity. He said 'To keep doing what you have always done expecting a different outcome is the definition of insanity'.

To change direction now and put into practice all the things I have learned at WA seems to be the most practical decision. In the very beginning, Kyle told us to have a plan. Now I know what he meant and it is time for me to stop, step back and formulate my plan by setting up goals and the steps needed to achieve the goals.

Today I am going back to the beginning and will work with the knowledge the wonderful training from Kyle, Carson, Jay and everyone here at WA has given me. No more flitting from one thing to another. It is time for me to get started on my plan so wish me luck and God bless you all.
