Just Upgraded to Yearly

I’ve always dreamt of owning my own business. But I never knew where to start and how to do it. It’s true I had a few ideas but I couldn’t ever put together a business plan to action. Perhaps I was afraid to fail. You know, not everyone has that go getter attitude that many successful entrepreneurs do. So I stuck to office jobs and the traditional college system. Things have changed.

I never gave up. I kept searching for the right opportunity. One that would give me the support I needed to make it on my own. I looked for partners, I searched for online programs. And I found one I thought to be interesting. But there was something about it that I didn’t quite like. That’s when Wealthy Affiliate popped up in front of me. I took advantage of the initial offer and signed up right away to check it out.

It’s been almost 5 weeks now. I’m more convinced than ever that this is what I need to start my own business. Last night, I found myself drinking coffee at 10:00pm at night. My wife asked me; are you crazy? I said, no. I’m focused on making this happen. She said; wow, I’ve never seen you like that! I said; me neither, but I love it.

I have accomplished a lot these last 5 weeks. I got my site up and running, a logo, some affiliate links on it, started the Bootcamp, got up to rank #171, and I want more. As I’m visualizing my first commission coming soon, I decided to upgrade to the yearly membership. I can feel it’s happening! And as it’s my own business, I’m investing on it. My dream has come true. Wish me luck.
