I guess I haven't been sharing everything that I've been doing here at wealthy affiliate because I didn't really think about it.

I would just do one thing and move on and do another thing and move on and type this and click that and copy and paste and read and study and take notes.

Sign up an affiliate here and sign up an affiliate there and talk to, gosh I don't know how many people in a single day.

I see people posting various things about achievements whether it be getting indexed, to-ranked, or mastering a certain portion of the training, or signing up so many referrals.

I feel, like wow I haven't been sharing all of this stuff and I probably could have written 5 blogs alone on the things that I have achieved within Wealthy Affiliate.

I commend those for sharing all that progress that's amazing. I feel, like I dropped the ball somewhere along the way, that I haven't been sharing this stuff. I thought it would have to be something super impactful like I just signed up 50 Affiliates in an hour..etc.

But now I'm seeing that it doesn't have to be so, I'm sharing this with the group that I'm super excited that I got an email from Kyle that literally gave me goosebumps actually to be called an "active affiliate" is really a neat title and achievement.

When I saw they were running the SAC program, I told myself that I was going to run my own Sac program against myself. So it's me, spurring me, to push further and faster, and harder no matter what. I'm finding this is really helpful in my business because I'm reaching into resources within my own being that I didn't even realize were there.

I'm finding that inner salesman that I didn't realize I had in me. Granted I'm doing things the hard way, one-on-ones on Facebook or Instagram, trying to use my LinkedIn but I'm still learning about that whole platform. But the easy ones like Facebook or Instagram I get a lot of interaction from people.

I'm also diversifying where else I Market the affiliate portion of Wealthy Affiliate. It's amazing so many resources we have here at our disposal. Kyle, Carson, Jay, and so many others with the training that is offered especially when you're premium you have an unlimited amount of resources at your fingertips.

That is unmatched anywhere else I don't care where you look, you're going to be spending thousands and thousands of dollars to learn what you're learning here for $50 a month seriously.

So when I get people that kind of turn their nose up at the fact that they don't really want to spend money on an education that's going to take them to a place monetarily beyond anything that they could even imagine, I kind of look at them people like you're insane if you think you're going to start a Multi-million dollar a year business with no money.

That's unheard-of I don't know of any program that's going to offer you these kinds of resources, training, and so many other things your own website, your own plethora of information that literally is unlimited for nothing that's insane!

So when I run into people like that basically I want to tell them this is probably not for you, because if you're willing to do what it takes to get what you need to get out of it then you're going to realize that things are going to cost whether it's your time you're learning so that you can adapt to do things that you've never done before or money.

Those things are required so that you can achieve success. Your focus and dedication determination and drive ability are also needed, if you start your business and you have the mindset of maybe I can do this or I might be able to make it, chances are you're probably not going to make it.

But if you have the mindset of I am going to make it! I'm going to kick serious butt at this thing I don't give a crap what gets in my way I'm going to step over it, around it, or plow right through it, then chances are you're going to make it!

Mindset is 70% of what's needed in doing something like this, the other 30% is implementation of what you learned. My statistical numbers may be off by a little but they're pretty freaking close from what I've discovered.

I have encountered skeptics and tire kickers who are not sure about this and think it's some kind of MLM or some kind of scam or whatever. I have no desire work with those people and it's not to be rude I'm not trying to be a jerk.

What I am trying to be is 100% dedicate my business, this is my business and nobody is going to sit there and pick it apart and tell me that it's not a real business, and that I'm not going to be successful at it because I know I am! Why do I know this? I know this because I've been busting my ass for about 9 months now for the first few months it didn't make any money but I'm the one that believed in me when the other ones in my life who I thought loved me did not believe in me.

I appreciate you whoever you are, for reading my blog / rant / me on a soapbox declaring that my business is awesome and I really don't feel I have to defend the fact that Wealthy Affiliate is the medium or platform that's going to get me there, it is getting me there!

I feel, insulted when I'm talking to people and they're looking at me like, oh you're basically begging me to get in your business, no I'm not! No offense but I couldn't care less if you get in or not! That's not to be mean or rude, but I learned a long time ago if you have to drag somebody to it, you got to drag them through it.

Sorry I'm not into the dragging business, I'm in the blogging business, I'm in the content creator business, I'm in the want to get indexed and ranked by Google, Bing, and Yahoo business, I'm in the want my YouTube videos to be optimized to be organically searched business, I'm in the I want to think outside the box and be that original person that people look at and say wow that S.O.B. did it! That's the business I'm in.

And yes while writing this I'm actually shaking because I believe this with my whole being.

Thank you for reading my blog I love this group! I love the people in this group! and I ain't going nowhere!
