Starting Over

It's OK to start over, but know the point at which you really need to begin again. That's what I am having to do since starting WA last month. This doesn't mean I take down my website and undo everything I've done so far, but the fact that I am going back over the training sessions, etc.

I've been having to pull 7-7 shifts Monday-Friday. I have a farm, family, and a disabled mom I am having to take care of 7 days a week. Just a few months ago I had several strokes and dealing with appointments, meds, etc., and my best friend was killed in a wreck last week. I began WA in the midst of this chaos, because I know that delay is denial. I knew I was going to be slow at getting started and jumping online every chance I had, but slow is better than nothing. Finally, my schedule was clearing some and I had all the time this weekend to work on WA, but I was in a wreck and have been laid up for days and just now trying to get into the swing of things once again.

This morning I logged into WA, looked at everything, and asked myself the question of what in the world have I done and am suppose to be doing. Then, I was like, it is fine to start over. I need a review.

Perhaps, you are like me. Life has been crazy and you are doing everything you can do to launch this amazing opportunity, but it is a struggle. Are you lost in what you have already watched and gone through? I was/am. So, today I'm going back to lesson one. I'm NOT going to delete my website, but I will take this training to improve it and get a more clear picture of what is going on.

Don't push yourself to the next lesson if you are not confident in the lesson you are at. It is OK to replay the videos, take notes, study, and even repeat. Don't get frustrated when you see others moving ahead faster than you.

Sit back, take a breath, re-examine your WA program (where you are at, etc.), and decide if going back and replaying the lessons will benefit you. You will be amazed at how much doing a review of what you have already learned helps you grasp the better understanding. It's a fresh breath.

In closing, remember that DELAY IS DENIAL. Don't get discouraged in your speed and just give up. Don't say that tomorrow you will do it or the next week. Do what you can do today...at the moment. Baby steps still moves you forward.

Second, IT'S OK TO START OVER. Evaluate where you are and if you need to go back and do a review then do it. Don't get discouraged because you are having to spend more time on a subject than you thought. Like I said, I've gone through the certifications and the Bootcamp, but life just kicked my butt here lately. So, today I stood up, dusted off, and back to ground zero I went. However, I'm not going back empty handed. I'm going back bringing what I've implemented thus far.

You can do this. You can and you will. Keep moving. Wishing you all the best in success.

Thank you so much. Blessings to you.

hope you and your family have a good weekend

Hi Shane,

Thanks for sharing your story. It takes courage to do what you've done with all the chaos going on. And I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend.

Starting over is a great thing, it tells me that you're not one to give up so quickly, that is the difference between those that become successful and those that don't.

Blessings to you and your family.

Thank your for your encouragement. God bless.

Hi! 619legacy,
I totally agreed to what you viewed and elaborated about life reality, which happens to be my passion to address as described in Life Reality on http://formefirst.com/onLifeBasics.html and in How to Handle Sickness? in http://formefirst.com/onDealSickness.html. I intend to monetize the ideas in the contents of www.formefirst.com and www.sick-ask.com by promoting digital info, books, services (counseling), products so to help people live a controlled realistic happy life. I would like to invite you as a critique to my thinking, writing, and planning.

In 10 days, I have moved the WA training to some 35% of Level 3, but not to the point of getting ready to materialize the dream of money making through affiliate marketing. I will go back for reviewing and implementing the ideas into actions.

So, you are in right track and a model for many like me; I love to follow you and await your advice. Best wish to success...

Thanks for your reply and connection. I will view the links you sent and wish you much success.

Thanks and appreciate.

Hi...you have a great attitude and perspective for such a new member. I've been when you are in the training and agree. We just need to keep in action at our own pace. Sorry for the loss of your friend. All the best to you on this journey.

Thank you. I am excited to be here and wish you very much success.

Great post indeed. I was lost when I started. A lot of information is given on a short period of time. Its not easy at first to digest all of this especially if you have never done this before. You're right, don't rush this. The goal is to have fun while building your incomes.

Like you said, never give up. I lost my job a few weeks ago. I'm still looking for one. My parents were victims of the flood and lost pretty much everything. its very hard to focus right now. Bad luck happens.
I'm very happy to have stumbled on WA. it changed my view for my financial future. I basically want to build my own little online empire, so to speak, and make the most out of it Make it my main source of income. I will most certainly go trough the training again for fine tuning and reviews.

Thanks for sharing and for the inspiration. I wish you lots of success, you got this.

Thanks for your reply. Your family is in my thoughts as recovery from the storms takes place. Best wishes to you.

Yes life does get in the way especially when you are working really hard to move forward on something you are so committed to. After losing my beloved dog and not feeling like doing anything I came back and really started struggling with writing content for my website. This past Monday morning I had an epiphany that began over the weekend with what are called God winks. I determined that I needed to be writing about something that I have become very passionate about. I already have the website, the domain and the hosting and am now looking into migrating all to WA. It really won't be starting over just continuing from where I left off with the lessons. Once I get it migrated I will be seeking help and comments on my site. I am having problems putting pictures on my header.

Thank you all so much for your help and support.

Thank you for your reply. Wishing you much success. Let us know when you get things switched over too. Will be happy to look at what you have. Sorry about the loss of your dog.

Thank you Shane. I have contacted support to help me migrate my website so hope it happens soon.

Thank you, Shane, for sharing this bit of advice. Joining WA and trying to learn how to earn online income already puts in the upper 3% of all people. A quote that gives me inspiration is; "Today I will do what others won't, so tomorrow I can accomplish what others can't."

I have done exactly what you are doing now, also like John Lennon, starting over. Some of us need this.

Thank you for your reply. Wishing you the best.

An inspirational post, and you speak the truth I would rsther live my life and say I tried then quit and think later what if I stuck with it. Just keep trucking and learn as much as you can. Me I have made a site but hsvent had the chance to really put content on a post. The time has given me a chance to brain storm the things I want to put. In the post and write about.I hope it keeps getting better with you and your situation try too keep, positive and thst head up.

Thanks and wishing you the best.

You're welcome anytime thanks I appreciate it. I do know how it feels about working up at 3am leave by 330 home by 530pm. 4hours round trip of driving. Then working from 6am-3pm I dont have much time on my hands. So I am doing my best to get where I want too be so I Don't have to do this anymore. Driving a rock truck isn't a bad job no, but being gone about 14hours a day sucks.

I am sorry for everything you are going through. I work 60+ hours a week and farm too. I have 4 kids, but nothing like the tragedy and taking care of someone like you have. I hope your health is better. If you have any questions you can always ask me or the community and we will help.

Thanks man. We have similar lives. Definitely hectic, but we are able to achieve our goals. I wish you the best.

Great post. Yes, going back and starting over as you say does happen, and should happen. A lot of information is presented in the training. It doesn't always make sense going through something the first time, or the second time... sometimes just going back and starting over from scratch allows some things to 'click' into place.

It is amazing all that we continue to learn through reviews. I wish you the best. Thanks for your reply.
