Fairly Stressed, But Hoping My Time Comes

Hey everyone!

Haven't blogged in awhile.

I just wanted to reach out and talk about some of my successes and failures thus far.

Success:

I am continuing to make great progress by posting at least once every single day. I am up to around 22 posts and am desperately hoping that some visitors will start pouring in soon.

Also, my posts are continuing to become indexed by google. This is a slow but sure process and I am confident in my ability to throw out quality content.

I have also completed the Unit of training concerning making money. This leads me to some of my stresses, which are the social media emphasized lessons.

Troubles:

No doubt, everyone will have some troubles along the road. And, I really think it just helps to talk about them.

I am becoming very stressed out by creating all of the social media accounts. I am wondering how I will ever gain a solid following.

I also haven't made any type of commission yet although I have put 21 posts out there including reviews on products that are linked to from my regular posts. I have not made commission on my amazon native ads either.

Another stressor, is after 22 articles, many ranked my google, I only have about 1-2 organic visitors a day. I am hoping this will increase a lot more in the future.

Closing Thoughts:

My closing thoughts are full of timid emotion, excitment, and feeling exhausted.

Does anybody have any opinions on which 1 or 2 social media outlets have the most potential? I truly don't believe I will be able to do them all. It really did take me to a low place today.

I almost miss the days of only worrying about writing good content.

But, heres the moral of the story.

I will keep my head up. Tomorrow is a new day, full of new opportunity. I will be taking the rest of the night off because my health needs it. I need it. I need to return my thoughts into positive ones and to do this, I will go to my happy place and return in the morning.

Thanks for caring, for reading this, and for being good friends.

I would not be able to do this if it were not for all of you.

Best,

Russell
