There really is HOPE for you - If I can do this, so can you!

My cover image is the best description of two main things:

1. This learning (and growing!) process has given me much hope in building a successful business online and it's showing me that this is something that I can do and do it well; and it's giving me the confidence I needed to take the step/leap of faith to just get out there and do it!
2. The image is a great representation of what I have been building my website (niche) around. Teaching others the art of handlettering by giving easy to follow tutorials and also giving recommendations and reviews on the tools needed to becoming an accomplished artist in this area of crafting/creating. (Note: this is actually one of my own creations that I will be doing a step-by-step tutorial on in the near future.)

This has been incredibly exciting so far for me because I actually have a website built and I'm better understanding the building process. I had tried to start building a website on my own before coming to WA and I couldn't get very far into without wanting to either cry, throw my laptop across the room, or just give up all together (please know that I wouldn't ever actually throw my laptop...or anything else...but it doesn't mean I didn't imagine it in my head out of sheer frustration).

My goal within the next three months is to begin really building an income from home. I would like to see my website grow exponentially and I know that that means that I have to put the consistent work and effort into it that's necessary to see it grow. My own success depends on how much of myself, my time, and quality of content that I put into it.

I love helping people in any way that I can, so within the next six months, my goal is to have at least one more website up and running and making a steady income stream for me and my family. My next website will also be aimed at helping people in an area that I have myself experienced over the years and see others struggling in today. I want to help others better navigate through the area I will be developing over the coming weeks/months. Sorry, I won't name it just yet because I haven't created my content for it yet; but I will be updating on my progress as I go.

I want to take a moment to encourage others out there just getting started or just joining. Take it one step at a time and don't be too hard on yourself. This IS something you can accomplish and I believe that it will also encourage you along the way as you see the progress you are making. My husband even mentioned to me the other day that he saw a hope and a passion growing in me that he hadn't seen in a long time (circumstances around us had been really challenging for quite some time now and this opportunity is really breathing hope into both of us!). Be encouraged, you can do this...and the more you do the easier it gets and the more confident you become in the process!

I'm wishing ALL THE BEST to all of you out there, to those just getting started and to those that have been doing this for a long time now. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope it can serve as an encouragement to you!
