We often worry too much about the unknown and delay ourselves from taking advantage of an amazing life changing opportunities. And we do know that procrastination is one of the main causes of failure. A couple years ago I decided that I wanted to start my own online business, but because of fear of the unknown and thinking too much I started making excuses on why I can't and shouldn't start it.

I was saying things like, Patrick you are not that techie and by the way your background is in Refrigeration/HVAC engineering. You don't know much about the internet and you don't have a degree in computer science and after listening to all these excuses I started procrastinating.

When the pandemic came and I saw that most people who had the opportunity to work from home were safe from the virus than some of us who had to go to work. That was a wake up call for me to realize it's not longer time to listen my excuses anymore. I decided that it's time to take action and start an online business now. That's how I found myself on this amazing platform.

I understand there are many people here who were thinking the same way about starting an online business. Choosing Wealthy Affiliate was the best choice for me as a platform to start my online business adventure. This is an amazing community of like-minded people who are willing to help everyone achieve their goals on the WA platform. I want to use this opportunity to thank Kyle and Carson for putting together one of the best online training and business opportunity platform out there! You will never know what you can do until you start doing something!

Thanks,

Patrick.

You are exactly right, Patrick. You never know what you can do until you try. Best of luck to you in your WA endeavors.

Thanks Davis!

Spot on Patrick the biggest thing holding us back is very often our limiting beliefs. At the end of the day they are just thoughts and are not real. Unfortunately lots of people around us tell us we can't do this and you have to block them out mentally on this subject! I wish you every success and remember taking action separates us from the majority!

Thanks Phil, you are absolutely right. I couldn’t agree with you more!

Thanks.

Great post! Fear can paralyze us. Your article is a good reminder.
I also like the way you express yourself. Very easy to read and understand your content.
