It goes without saying we all need to exercise a bit of patience - with everything in life we need to. When I decided to re-join WA I was pumped up and ready to make that money I was willing to put in all the work yes, but what I forgot to add to the formula was PATIENCE. I mean sure every now nd then you read someone's post about how it took several months even years to get the 1st sale or any reall money out of WA but you I never quite thought I would be in line waiting too. Waiting for that 1st sale and cashing out. I didnt think I was better than anyone or that I know better than everyone; I just thought I would be rolling in cash say maybe 2 months in.

Little did I know! Geez online business is even harder than store-front business, just for the fact that you have to engage visitors within the first seconds so they dont bounce from your post. With store front even if someone passes, walk in to check out merchandise atleast you had a potential client browsing the aisles - thats something right. I was not ready for how taxing online business would be - the GOOD thing though, i havent given up! I am still soldering on through despite everything to find my footing.

It hasnt been easy I can say that - but all of this has taught me perseverance & patience. It is not easy venturing into this line of business. I am learning so much I really wouldnt trade it for anything. I read motivational quotes and articles everyday to give me that kick I need; for most times it works and then there are those times I feel like giving up but I always remember this picture;

Giving up is so easy; whats more is that the prospect of it is almost enticing. I mean just 3 letter words I GIVE UP can take away your struggle and failure. Yup! Its that easy - but whenever I think about that I think about the money I have invested in teaching myself a new set of skills - now thats a real waste! A waste is what i will do to my confidence from now going forward - with everything in life! So I choose not to destroy myself like that hence I am learning Patience and Exercising it with every lesson.
