Hello WA Family,

How are you?

This blog is goin to discuss the one thing I don't like about Wealthy Affiliate.
(That Is A Pretty Catchy Title huh? )

Well let me start this blog off by saying this. Just because I personally don't like it doesn't mean that it isn't a good thing.

Example:

I didn't like vegetables growing up but they were good for me.

I didn't like going to school either, but it was good for me.

We may not like exercising, but it is good for us.

My point is just because we don't like something, doesn' mean that we can't benefit from it.

OK You are probably thinking what is the one thing that I don't like about Wealthy Affiliate.

Well here it is. You Ready?

The one thing that I don't like about Wealthy Affiliate is ???

There Is Just Too Much Training...and it is challenging me to GROW!!!

Let me list just some training that is available. Notice I said some...

Not to mention that a new one gets added every week.

Now my point of the blog is this. Just because I don't like it doesn't mean it is not good. Like I said I didn't like vegetables either, but they are good.

See the reason I don't like having all these trainings is because it is challenging me to grow.

Ouch...

See I am the kind of person who likes doing a lot of things, but what I am noticing more and more is if I don't focus then I won't be effective.

So this blog is not a negative thing against Wealthy Affiliate, but it is a blog about me learning to focus more. I am realizing the more I focus on one thing, the more I am being effective.

When I first joined WA I was trying out all kinds of things, but I wasn't producing content at a good pace and if I did produce content it wasn't focused.

There are so many opportunities, training and tools available to build an online business for us here at Wealthy Affiliate and I just can't believe we get all this for only $49 a month, but that is another blog.

Let me stay focused. LOL

I just thought I would write this blog to encourage someone, who is not getting the results you wanted at this point and time, to pick a topic and focus on that topic.

Try to Invest your energy in that topic as much as you can such as writing blogs, making videos, asking questions, watching training and researching the topic.

I am still learning this, but I am getting better at focusing and I can really see the results.

Here is a quote by Billy Sunday -

" More men fail through lack of purpose than lack of talent. "

Well I hope this blog has encouraged someone to stay at it, focus and keep going toward your dreams.

Let me know if you have any questions by posting them in the comment section.

Thanks for posting this. I always tell myself, try not to be overwhelmed because there is so much training and information to process.

Funny thing is, I had one week vacation from my regular job and thought I'd be able to get threw ALL MY WA training that week!!! 😂 Lol! Boy was I wrong!! I do understand, in order to be successful you have to actually work hard at it, complete tasks and that takes time.

I appreciate WA! In the past, I've paid for other online programs to learn how to make money online and it wasn't in my opinion the best training. WA is, by far the best one!!!

Thanks for the shout out. Wealthy Affiliate Rocks.

I agree, there is a lot of training. But I don't think it's a bad thing. It's up to us to learn how to manage ourselves. Your advice is very good, just find a topic that interests us and stay focused on it until we master it. This can be overwhelming when a person starts WA. But with a little organization we simply realize that all this training are good because there is something for everyone.

Hi Ingrid, Thanks for the shout out much appreciated.

Great post PastorDre,

Reminds me of a story about an older guy going back to school to study for a medical exam.
He was in class, and some of the younger students asked him how old he was. He said 68.
They gasped, and one of them replied, wow! You'll be 75 when you graduate.
The older man looked back and said:
I'd be the same age even if I didn't.

Hi Dedo, thank you for sharing this short story. Is a life lesson for who want to understand it.

Cheers,

You're Welcome Diana,

hahaha WOW good stuff.

So much training, so little time! Thank you for your post. It has been a while that I have had a minute to come to WA. I have been quietly working on my website behind the scenes with very little time for anything else.

However your post has reminded me of the wealth of wonderful knowledge and training that is available to me and so one of my new years resolutions is to get back to following the training. And so I look forward to new year boot camp! not the exercise kind, but the following my dreams and finding freedom kind!

I have yet to delve into Jay's webinars, there just seem to be too many of them and I have no idea where to start. :)

I also don't like that they are a little time consuming. They last for an hour, but usually have only 15 minutes of useful content in them.
They are unedited live recordings.

The training that Jay does is really good and have very good content. Thank you for the shout out.
