I May Be Stuborn, But I AM NOT A Quitter!

So, where to begin...

Well, I've been a proud WA member for about 4 months now, and I've learned alot.

I learned that niche selection is VERY important, and that you better have quality content ideas out the ying yang if you expect to make any decent amount of money out of it.

Well, I'm ashamed to admit that I fell victim to picking a somewhat difficult niche for a first timer, and that I went about it the wrong way, as well as being diagnosed with "shiny object syndrome", as in, I was more distracted by what wasn't as important than what is important, such as creating quality content that offers the reader value.

Though I haven't made as much progress as I had hoped these past 4 months, it definitely hasn't been a waste of time either.

I have learned SO MUCH from my mistakes, and feel that I now am on the right path.

The New, And Last, Game Plan


Like they all say, and rightfully so: "follow the training", well, I can now honestly say, amen to that.

I should have took Kyle's advice in the begging and went with promoting WA since I couldnt think of a niche I wanted to do. It took me 5 days- FIVE DAYS! To decide my first of many niches.

Well, now I know.

From here on out, I will be creatign a WA website from scratch, and follow through with it until- well forever, since a site is never done ;)

And I'm depending on you guys to hold me accountable if I do otherwise!

Ahhh, if only all this time I had been doing that in the first place, oh well. Like I said, I'm EXTREMELY stubborn and more often than not, have to learn the hard way before anything sticks.

Well, I'm here to tell you-

IT'S STICKING!

To all my WA friends and those who have helped me learn the hard way-

Thank you :)

Your friend, and now new WA Affiliate,

Richie

Thank you Beverley, for all the help and support :)

I am always telling my kids not to be upset when they make mistakes as that is how we learn. Sometimes we learn right away and sometimes we have to make the mistake a lot and learn the hard way.

I am glad that you are not giving up and that you are recommitting to the training. If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.

I've been following my lessons religously, and have to say I am glad I did. Hit a few obstacles, of course, but with repeated trying, I got over them. Sometimes it takes a while to realize that listening to someone that knows their business pays off in the long run. You will do much better with your new site since you now know that not to do. Good luck

Well said, thank you Gordi. The best of luck to you as well!

I enjoy reading through your experience. We all learn the most vital lesson from our errors That's great you haven't gave up. I been at WA for the same amount of month and still haven't made profit here but I been researching in depth in my niche since I chose a delicate niche that deals with natural alternative and homeopathy that require deep research to be a valid source since I'm touching on teaching others how to treat their bodies with homeopathy. I personally wish to make a site that teach others how to treat their bodies with natural elements around us instead of constantly been bombard with chemical medications which is starting to become a norm in the medical industry today.
