Hello there,

First and foremost, I'd like to thank you for reading this blog post. I've met some wonderful people here in the short time that I've been participating (actually still a free member at the time of writing this article). Each and every one of you have contributed to a friendly, open, and diverse community, and it's absolutely wonderful to see something like this.

I've been seeking the entrepreneur life since I was a child. When I was around 11-12 years old I would use mobile apps that pay you to download sponsored games, or watch ads. I did not earn very much as you could imagine, but for a kid, earning the money was a very special feeling. Since those days, I've been working more towards my goals every single day.

There's been many snags in the road, and even some periods of time when I would quit for months. I would tell myself that I'm going to build a successful life, and then get discouraged by the small failures.

But since then, I've learned that failure isn't necessarily a bad thing. In fact, I welcome it. If I can find out what I did wrong, I will try again and do so until I succeed. These small victories (like getting a payment on an affiliate network, or finding a solution to cut costs on expenses like my autoresponder, which I actually build my own using Amazon SES so I could eliminate that price of $20 a month.) give me that feeling of accomplishment.

Now I think to myself, with that dedication. I should be able to do anything. I will keep working towards my goals until I crush them, and when I do. I will have all of you to thank, you've lifted me up in low times, and encouraged me to keep at it.

Not only has this assisted me with making money, but it's pushed me to be a better person as well.

Set your mind to something, work towards it, do NOT give up, and you will do great things.

Today, I join WealthyAffiliate.

And another day, I'll be your next success story.
