Four Months At WA
In my one-month blog post, I had set some goals that I had wanted to accomplish within six months. But, I wanted to share an update today and set some new goals to hold myself accountable to for the coming months.
Thank you to everyone that has helped me so far in my journey. I appreciate the wisdom and experience that has been shared with me. If there is something that I can do for you, please ask and I will try my best to help.
First of all, I graduated college this past week with my Bachelors of Business Administration. I worked two long years to accomplish this, so I am so elated to have finished this large goal. Next step is to move onto my Masters degree while continuing to build this business. Some have asked me why I am pursuing a formal education if I plan on taking this business seriously. Simple really, I was in the military and was afforded three years of college education after my service. I have a year left, so I will start my Masters Degree.
Another goal that I had was to create a logo that I felt represented my brand that I am working to build. I will attach a picture if anyone wishes to offer feedback, I would definitely appreciate it =)
I have failed in my goal of writing consistently every day. But, I have worked in my business every day, so that is some small consolation to myself. And just because I failed at that goal does not mean that I cannot set a new goal of writing every day, so I will set that goal.
I have finished my first e-book ahead of schedule and I am quite proud of it. I am working to figure out how to publish it and add it to my website. So, that is my next goal.
My last goal is to start offering personalized sessions with me for a fee because it is my passion to help others succeed with their personal finances. I want to offer accountability to people that may need it to stick to their goals and I want to help change the common mindset that seems to surround money. I plan to charge for this service but have not figured out yet what that will look like. This means that I will have to learn how to create sales pages, which I don't know how to do yet. And then figure out how to get the message to the right people.
Most of these goals I am wanting to have accomplished within the next two months or sooner.
I have very much enjoyed the Wealthy Affiliate community so far and have learned so much since being here. If you are on the fence on whether or not to go premium, I would highly recommend it if you plan on starting an online business and being around for the long haul.
I am looking forward to the adventure ahead!

Congratulations on your Bachelors! I do like your logo and as someone who knows what it's like to try and get out of debt, I think the services you will offer are priceless.
Thank you, Erica! I appreciate your input. And I am very excited to be done with my degree =) I feel like I have accomplished so much.
Hey I like that logo - it's a bright future when you are DEBT FREE!!! I got it!! Looks good!!! I would ask for your help - since you have a bright sun shining and green nature in your logo!!! I LIKE IT!!! And CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR FIRST E-BOOK!!! I'm jealous!!! LOL!!! I want to publish a book about MY journey of becoming a millionaire and ALL I HAVE HAD TO LEARN in the last 5 years, so GOOD FOR YOU FOR ACCOMPLISHING THAT!!! AND also CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR BACHELOR'S DEGREE!!!! Great job!!!! Keep working on your Master's degree BEFORE YOU HAVE CHILDREN - that's what I DID WAY BACK in 1989, I graduated with my Master's degree in Early Childhood Ed BEFORE I had my FOUR KIDS!!!! Keep up the GREAT WORK!!!!!
Hello, Amanda! Thanks so much for your opinion, kind words, and advice. It is very much appreciated. That is the exact feeling that I wanted to convey with the logo, so I am glad you were able to see it =)
My e-book is short but I am hoping packed with information that will be valuable to people that need the information. I deliberately kept it short to avoid overwhelming my readers. It is in pdf form at the moment and sits around twenty pages. Of course, you can share your journey to becoming a millionaire but you can write an ebook on just about anything else in the meantime too. I plan to use this ebook to introduce potential clients to my way of thinking and share exercises to help them start on their journey to becoming debt free. I guess I am trying to use it as a marketing tool and an introductory to a mindset shift about money.
I agree with your opinion about getting education out of the way before having children. My boyfriend has a four-year-old that we have visit with us every weekend and it can be hard to keep up with her and try to get work done. So having her full-time or any child full-time would be challenging while trying to pursue a Masters degree.

I believe more and more people will need services like this in the near future, you will be needed! Congrats on all your accomplishments! I am not quite sure about your logo, it's a kind of busy. I would simplify it, and I don't like the text this way, it looks like,
"oh yes, forgot ;( there has to be some text on it too"
Thank you for sharing your opinion, Loes. I definitely appreciate your expertise. I have another version of this logo that has the words under the coins. It was too big to upload though unfortunately. If you have a minute to look its at the top of my website debtfreefuture.net. I do definitely understand why you think it looks crowded and I value your honesty. Thanks so much!
The money is not to recognizeble, because it's to small.
The color green is not the same from the text.
How about something like this?
Hello, Loes! I am humbled by your help. I added the second one to my website header to test it out. I would love to know what you think. I think it has a much cleaner look and the size is a lot better.
Thanks:)! Looks indeed cleaner, and says the same, I think the colors are better this way too
