Week 6: Another Tough Week

Week 6: Another Tough Week

In the pursuit of building an online business, I carry on with the work I do out in the real world. The past couple of weeks have been a setback. Office drama is never fun, and it is particularly maddening when someone blows things out of proportion and quits on the spot. In the end, it was a good thing for this person to part ways, but it leaves a massive hole that needs to be filled. This leads to more time doing a job I shouldn't have to do, and less time getting to do what I want to do.

No posts were published last week. I spent most of my waking hours doing damage control. The good news is that I set aside some time to watch training videos, which helped further my understanding of building an online business. In this process, I am learning how to be a better writer. I'm also learning to let go and trust the process. I know this takes time.

I stand at seven posts published with seven drafts to complete. My goal is to hit fifteen by the end of the month. With all the extra work that has to be done around the office, we'll see if I get it done. Once I get fifteen, I'll be looking into new affiliate programs.

If you are new, how are things going for you? If you are a veteran, how long did it take to get significant traffic to your site (and what in your mind is significant)? I'd love to hear how all of you are progressing.
