My Journey Through WAU (part 1)

Writing helps me think and sort out things. That's the reason I've decided to jot down a few simple things I've observed while learning at WAU. The atmosphere at WAU is very friendly and most importantly very conducive for learning all about internet marketing. However, it is up to us to make the most of it. Some methods may work better for some but not for others. I found it quite difficult to remain focused (and still do) because there are so many features at WAU. Sometimes I feel that I do not have enough time to utilize all the resources. Hence, I've come up with the following points:

1. Following people who follow me - I've found quite a number of subject matter experts by doing this. They not only give me more information on internet marketing, but also show different aspects of how internet marketing can be used. Not every one uses the internet to earn revenue the same way. That's what makes it more exciting. There are also newbies like me in my friends network. They remind me that learning about internet marketing is possible for almost anyone if we are willing to put aside some time and work hard for it.

2. Writing blog posts - That's to sort out my ideas and to communicate what I've learnt so far. It also helps me flex my writing muscles. Something like warming up to the actual 'thing'.

3. Attending the beginner's training - This is of course the most mandatory step because that's why I am here in the first place.

4. Starting and maintaining my very own website - Well, this is the exciting part because I can actually own my very own piece of the internet and voice out things cluttered in my head in a more systematic way. Earning out of doing what I like? - that's the way I always wanted to work.

5. Logging into chat - Sometimes I passively read what the other members are chatting about and sometimes I drop in to say Hi or motivate someone (and also get motivated). This is also a nice way to share knowledge and get instant answers.

The above are just a few of my 'eureka; ideas. I will keep you posted on more of those.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on WA and how you are making it work for you. I appreciate the info.

I needed this article on focusing, and found another learning tool while reading your post. Two birds with 1 stone, not bad on a Tuesday morning! Feeling good about today! Thanks for the post!

Yup, I agree with you. Natelrevoh made this really great tutorial on mind mapping. Certainly checking it out.

Nice, thoughtful post. :) It just popped up in my global feed so figured I'd give it a look see. If you are having troubles keeping organized you should check out my new training. I am not sure about you, but I am a highly visual person so I use mind maps to visually plot where I am headed and what the purposes for each step are. The training I mentioned above is a tutorial I created in WA on how to use a free online mind mapping program to draw out your ideas and organize them while brainstorming. Here is the link to the tutorial:

That sounds great to me! I loved to do that when I write. I like to look at things and move them around for the perfect effect. I will be putting this in my notebook for future use, which will be sometime today! Thanks for the info. So happy you check on this blog!

No problem at all. I am thrilled that my tutorial was of service to you! It feels great to help people out. :) And yes, it really helps me visualize my projects and figure out where I am going with something. I like knowing the big picture result of little things I do and mind mapping is really great at taking the big picture and breaking it up. :)

Woow, you are in my Subject Matter Experts list! Mind mapping works for almost everyone. Thanks for the help.

You are most welcome. :) Yeah mind mapping just makes things a lot easier all around. Slightly less overwhelming and makes the whole internet marketing process a bit more user friendly. :)

I like your blog it is very encouraging to me as I felt that I am also in the same situation that you were in.

You can bet on it netlinkers. But that's the best part - challenging what you do not know yet

It was interesting to hear about your experiences. Glad they're so positive. You have touched on an issue that a lot of people have problems with - staying focused. Keep working at it by having some clear goals. You will get there

Best wishes

Hi Beverly! I am guessing a lot of people have actually gone through this stage and a lot of people have also written about it. One thing I like to do at WAU is read how people actually overcome such feelings. Inspires me everytime :)
