Struggling
I hope this won't sound defeatist but I am struggling. I feel like I have been working very hard and yet achieved nothing.
I have only just started my online journey but I already feel lost and confused.
My website is not as pretty or creative as I would like, my posts are not as professional as I think they should be and I feel like everyone else is having a great success, beautiful websites and awesome posts.
I know things take time and I am more than happy and exited to make time for my online business I just don't know where I'm going or what the next step is and it makes me anxious.
I wish someone would just explain things and show me how to move forward.
In the mean time I will continue my training and stay as positive as I can because I really want this to work. I hope that in three months I will be enjoying a successful online business and make money. Hopefully in six months time I will be laughing at my self for writing this post and help new members with my experience.
Thank you for reading.

Michal, At first the training here can be somewhat overwhelming but it does get easier. I suggest you relax and maybe go back over some of the training before you move forward. You also can "play" with your siterubix sites trying different themes to see if you like the way they look. When you find one you really like - use it on your real niche site. PM me a link to your site and I'll take a look at it.
The content writing also gets easier and better the more you do it. Check out this 7-day challenge and the helps. Day 1: Accountability -Shirley
Hi Michal,
I'm sorry to hear you're struggling.
I've been a premium member for a little over a month. I've been trying to keep my thoughts positive and my motivation high while wondering when a similar moment of struggling will come for me and how I'll respond. Because I know the struggle will come.
I think the successful people on WA have been through their own discouraging times in this business, and what makes these folks successful is that they somehow kept going.
You show you have strength by admitting you're struggling and sharing this with the community. I know you have what it takes to push through the discouragement and get to the rewards on the other side. I wish you great success!

Most of us start out this way...this endeavor takes time. You need to build that level of trust in your niche's community and once you have, the monetization will come.
As for writing, we're all our worst critic. Your writing skills will improve as you move forward.
Don't give up..just keep on trucking along.
Michal Don't give up, as long as you keep up with your training you will be successful. Don't expect everything to be right the first time you try. If you don't understand, go back and reread the lesson you are having trouble with. I was doing pretty good until i got to the lesson that included the Policy Statement. I couldn't find the place where we were to check boxes so the page wouldn't be seen by Google. I had to go over that part 3 times and still didn't find it. Then I took the weekend off and went on again this morning and found where I had made the wrong choice of topics in the WP menu and there was the post still waiting for me to finally publish it and at the bottom of the page right in plain sight were the boxes I had to check. So don't get impatient, get up and walk away from the computer for a while. Give yourself time with your 2 beautiful little girls and try again. This is a marathon not a sprint.
