A tip for beginners

In my quest for doing things differently, looking for opportunities, I came across Wealthy Affiliate. I do not remember how exactly I came across the friendly face of Mario Rosa telling me how Wealthy Affiliate can help me. I decided to make an account.

Overwhelmed

And then I got overwhelmed by all there was to see on the website. There was live chat, training, a lot of buttons. I didn't start right away. Where to, why put my information out there? They urge you to write a bio, goals, etc. I wasn't sure what would happen to my info and myself.

After two days with Wealthy Affiliate, I still didn't do a thing. I asked questions before. I started. Let me tell you that all info you put in the chats, the goals, is only within the Wealthy Affiliate community. The reactions are loving and caring.

Smart Goals

When I realized this, I wanted to react and help others out too. For example someone wrote that they wanted enough money. I learned over the years that a goal should be SMART for you to have the chance to succeed. With SMART I mean that your goals should be:

• Specific: it should be clear what you want. A one time earning, monthly income, or ..
• Measurable: you should know when you reached your goal. Is $10 enough or is $1000?
• Achievable: do you believe it is possible, achievable?
• Realistic: is $1000000 per hour realistic?
• Time-bounded: when must it happen?
  

Finally the start

Then I really focused on the training. I haven't found my niche yet, so I switched to the Affiliate Bootcamp training. I am learning a lot and enjoying it. When reading comments, bio's and achievements of others, I am getting ideas and inspiration.

Thank you, Wealthy Affiliate community!

So beginner, don't be afraid and get going. Start with the green button on the left.

Enjoy the journey!
