I love to think! I play chess and the Rubik's cube. I always challenge my mind to solve problems and puzzles! I have this habit since I was young and in my ongoing quest for success in online business, I learned this great lesson which I would like to share to you.
I have been fascinated by Rubik's cube when I was in high school, oh boy, that was 33 years ago! I did not really devote my time to hone my skills in this field and in those 33 years, i was never able to complete the 6 sides of the cube, maximum maybe 3 sides only! My mistake? - I never studied the pattern of moves. I just relied on my mental capability and tried to calculate on my own!
The break came last December when I went home to Philippines for my annual vacation and I saw my son playing with Rubik's cube. He can solve the 6 sides of the cube with ease! I was amused and ask him to teach me. He told me. Daddy it is so easy! Just follow the pattern of moves! You can see them in the internet!

It was then that I realized my mistake! I should not reinvent the wheel. The correct patterns of moves are already established! We just need to study them and pick the most appropriate one to solve the type of puzzle or problem we are facing!
In my quest for success in online business, this bad habit of doing things on my own came out again. After learning to build a website and create blogs, I drifted away and tried to do things on my own. The result? No Success!!!
The solution? I will go back to the lessons and work my way slowly but surely to get my WA diploma. It may take months or years but I don't care. All I want now is to finish all the lessons, know the correct pattern of moves and solve this puzzle of getting passive income from online business!
I learned my lessons from Rubik's cube and from my son! I will always remember it! I will follow the pattern! I will succeed here!!!
