Brain Overload !
I have been slowly going through the training (on course 2 level 5), have only been on WA for 7 days and thought I was making good progress. Then a very crap day on Friday, it has seemed to have snowballed into my weekend. Normally I spend an hour each weekday after work, but my office job impacted me so bad mentally that I could not just think nor have the energy to do anything. This led me to getting more frustrated with myself and question my ability to do anything. I keep thinking I want to hand my notice in Monday but cannot do that just yet.
Thought I would call it a day yesterday and resume today, again woke up thinking about my office work which put me in a bad mood again. I decided to step away from the laptop and just have a chill out morning. Went to a car showroom as the wife is looking to upgrade. Sat in a fancy new car and thought to myself, I would love to come back and pay out right cash for a car (well not that particular dealership as the customer service was non-existent), then I thought to myself I can do this, just need time and patience.
Logged back on this evening, read through some blogs/comments and took a deep breath and continue steady progress with the training. Sometimes it is just good to take a break from the screen, however I do think my office job plays a big role mentally in the way I am feeling.
Just out of interest how many members on here have gone on from leaving their day job to online marketing?

I know the feeling exactly. I too had to step back, even took a week off cause my brain was going to explode. So you're not alone my friend, and sometimes, just a short break is all it takes to get back on track!
I wish you success! Keep on keeping on!
thanks, i am glad I am not the only one, I think alot of pressure comes from from my normal job which impacts me on this.
Hey Nitesh,
I am pulling for you as each of us has gone thru rough times
and it is a common reaction to become frustrated. However,
in many cases, the driving force behind any significant change
depends on how you handle it and subsequent decisions you
make. When you take a positive and measured approach to
facilitate the eventual outcome, it becomes a decision that
COULD change your life. Hasty decisions can prove to be
dangerous in some cases; an old adage comes to mind. It goes,
"Do Not cut off your Nose to Spite your Face"! My advice would
be to use this as a motivating force to take positive steps
to ensure your financial future. I hope this helps because the same events occurred in my life, earlier in my career.
Cheers,
Ken
thanks Ken, I think its the positive reinforcements that I must keep telling myself when things get to much to keep me going
Sorry about the bad experienced I know this is a little off the subject but Hyundai is offering $40 if you ask for a test drive! Honda is offering a $25 free gas card and other dealerships are actually giving out free money! Hope that lifts your day up a little! Oh, on the question of whether you should quit do whatever is best for you and your family some succeed some don't @ online marketing!
Exactly, sometimes you just hit a wall and need to take a deep breath. You are rocking it with your progess!
Sometimes offices jobs are quite frustrating to say the least. I am online full time now. But mine is because the business I was at closed. I am trying very hard to get this going so I don't have to go back to a job and work this at the same time.

I definitely advise creating a blog, it has helped me so far, particularly this blog, where I have got advice and re enforcement from the community. good luck with your goals
