Having a Thought-Provoking Day.....

A big shout out to all my friends here at Wealthy Affiliate! :) Well, I was having a serious talk with myself and my oldest son (Tyler -- the one with the glowing eyes on my bio pics) asked me what was wrong. He has always been the caretaker and sweet boy.... Well, I told him I just started a job which I love and pressuring myself to do the job, WA and family chores, etc. He said that usually didn't bother me. Ok, I gave up and told him the truth -- Until I see any earnings from WA, their Dad has really been on me about the cost of WA and I am not making money on it. I told him I don't agree with that assessment, but am put in the middle of all this junk. Tyler then told me, "Mom, you know, money isn't what it really is all about. It's about being the great mom that you are and you always stand up for what is right." Made me cry.... He hugged me and said "You know we will get through this and you ALWAYS have me." Waaah!!! Okay, so I am sticking with WA even though I have been pressured to fit it all in the short amount of hours in the day to do it all correctly. I think I need to go outside and breathe..... But, at least I know I raised some great kids and they do say what I need right in the moment. Bless you all and enjoy who you have in your life and things will improve -- no matter what the situation is. Bless you all, Terri

Ahhhhh, deep breath.....
You have many blessing Terri. With a full plate, sometimes the stresses shake you 'round a bit. Make sure you continue your 'micro' breaks Terri (go outside ~ whatever chills you), your brain needs to 'empty the stress trash'. If a micro break is all you can get, that will have to do. You can harvest larger breaks down the track....
Thoughts with ya mate ~ you're a tough cookie.

Great kids are taught by great parents! You have done a wonderful job with Tyler for sure! I know the feeling of pressure, it is very uncomfortable and difficult to work with when you cannot get away from the negativity! I wish you the best!

Hi Terri, one of the really cool things about WA is the pace of things. We all advance at our own pace, be it lightning quick or turtle slow. If all you can manage is an hour here and there, then so be it. Don't stress about it and don't quit! Re: money, you will find a way. There is always a way for good people. It will come to you. You may not see it now but it will come, somehow it will come. Wishing you only the best.

Ah, Terry, you definitely raised them good. They sensitive and their EQ must be out of this world, that's why they know exactly what you need to hear right now. Maybe you really worn out handling all these (new job, family, WA). So go on, cry, it's gonna make it more easy to handle. And like you said to Wayne, I'm gonna say the same to you : hang in there, Terry. It's not easy to do that, I know, but be sure that you are not alone in this.. ;-))

Hi Terri
It's so hard to concentrate and focus on learning when there are so many other demands. When you have the pressure of finances as well it can give you a head ache. You can do your best and nothing more. Breathe, be grateful, smile that beautiful smile of yours and everything will take care of itself.

Hi Terri! Tyler sounds like a wonderful son as I'm sure the rest of your children are! I can only imagine what type of pressure you have with running a household, having a full time job, watching over your website and keeping in touch with your other family at WA! All I can say is just take it a day at a time! Yes! breathe my friend, breathe! Remember that I've got a really good breathing exercise on my site so use the format everyday and it will help you keep your mind clear! It won't take long before you've got it all under control - I know you! :-)

Oh, what a sweet, sweet boy. Just keep moving along. We are all going to get there someday!

Sounds like you should talk more with Tyler than your spouse about WA efforts. Encouragement is always a great motivator! Obstacles may and will come up, but you just have to work through them and know that you will succeed in the end. Your subconscious will try anything in its power to get you to quit or do the norm. I'm a newbie to the site, but continue to push my self in many efforts. And I have had and continue to have my share of obstacles. However, it won't stop me from being successful in everything I do. I know you can Do IT!

You Have raised a wonderful son :)

Cool post. Have patience with your hubby, perhaps he doesn't really understand what you are doing and he needs some convincing, give him a chance to grasp this thing. And congratulations on an awesome kid.

Oscar.
