Hiatus!

I am debating with myself and discussing with my wife about going on a hiatus from WA. I'm just really struggling to find the money for WA (its about $70 per month here) and it is quite a burden on us each time it rolls over and I often miss it first time around. I also have to be realistic I have been here around 4 months and only made $12 so far which doesn't bother me I know it takes time but things are just going on that make the money tight and and time tight also.

Therefore I have come up with a semi solution without giving up. I am currently working on an E book and wanting to launch a website to advertise and sell it as well as keep at my current site and nag my wife to get me content to build this up. My plan is to suspend my WA subscription, back up my current site via FTP and go away for 6 - 12 months (I really don't know what sort of time frames I am going to get to work on all this and am going to have to come up with some sort of schedule) and work on all this content and the book and get it all ready for launch to make a strong comeback with all 3 sites with plenty of launch content and roll out content that will really help with coming in strong very quickly.

Doing this will release a bit of money pressure and pressure off me to perform and having roll out content will give me time to look into all the training WA has to offer rather than flounder behind just trying to get some articles out.

Support for me will involve a few other communities I have managed to find via Facebook etc and I would really love to find an accountability buddy to help out.

Personal reasons for this involve needing more time for my family as they have been feeling a tad neglected and I have realised this as moods have gotten better and family life has improved while I have been around over christmas. As well as this I am starting dieting and working out as a family as we have become rather computer orientated with mine and my partners work over the last year and we want to set a good example for our growing child and encourage him to be active.

Please let me know your thoughts of this plan I would love to hear from a few of you in regards to this.
