My First Blog! Yay Me!

I have officially been at WA 6 months, at least that's what my new badge says! :>) I actually am quite pleased about this. Somewhere between the 2-3 month stage, my husband and some of my friends and family, attempted to make me quit the program. I was seriously close to shutting the program down just to keep peace. I convinced my husband the reason I haven't received (perhaps) is because I have only given half my time, half my effort, and the dreaded “Life” got in the way. Thankfully, he understood as he was going through some “life issues" of his own. So yes, I am quite pleased to claim my 6 month badge! 😊

During my time at WA, I have opened up 3 websites, and closed one down already. I chose a niche site (Plus Size), 1 WA site, and 1 is my branding. I am afraid I have allowed too much stuff to leak under my door and put a kabash on my initial goals, and I am fighting my way back up. I started both boot camps and I don't recommend it. As Kyle has said previously, “People that say they are “great” multi-taskers tend to be those that are the least productive and the most inefficient.” This is quite true, and I have found myself buried as I run around and “do it all” only to find out I have done nothing! So I'm starting over. I'm taking the Entrepreneur Book Camp ONLY and hopefully find the bits and pieces of valuable information that I failed to pick up the first time around. And this will be my first blog for my followers as it shows a pretty good picture of where I am at this point. I am so grateful to the wonderful folks that have lent me their ears and allowed me to vent. They have supported me without question, and advised me to make the right choice. I am looking forward to the time I can reciprocate such kindness with all my new-found knowledge! ❣ Below is my money goals when I just started 6 months ago. I believe I could raise the levels, but I'm looking forward to surpassing those goals because I can and I must!

QUESTION #1: How much money would you be happy earning? Happy? Well, I would be happy making enough to pay for my annual membership again! But seriously $500/week.

QUESTION #2: How much would you be ecstatic earning? $2500/month

QUESTION #3: And how much TIME are you willing to invest to achieve these goals? I have spent an inordinate amount of time on WA every day. Between reading blogs, researching niches, and responding to comments, and then I try to create.

Honestly, I am willing to work 8-10 hours a day. I'm retired, but have grandchildren to raise so it's kind of hairy sometimes until they go to bed at night. Don't be surprised to find me up at 2-3 in the morning. 😪

Thank you all for reading "My 1st Blog"!! I'm looking forward to writing and reading more. God bless you all! Yay, Us!!
