I think I've been scammed!
I think I've been scammed,
and what is really bad is that I bought into it with my eyes wide open.
Ya see, it all started with a simple search online for a way to earn money. I have nothing against manual labor, kind of been doing that my entire life but as I’m getting older I find it to be… well, a lot of hard work.
So, I looked at a lot of different options. I won’t bore you with listing them (I’m sure most of you went down the same list). I finally found 2 that seemed like a “sure” thing. The kicker between them was “…if you meet my goals for you…” and “…tell me your goals and I’ll help…”.
Yep, I chose the second option and met these guys, Kyle and Carson. A guy named Jay also joined in and the next thing I knew, I was this wonderful Premium Member and off to the bank to arrange for the untold riches I was promised to earn simply for writing a few words on a web-site.
Actually, I wasn’t promised riches. And I wasn’t told it would be just a few words. More of an opportunity to learn how I might… maybe… could possibly earn money. And I was told it would take a lot of words used correctly.
So for a little over 2 years I have followed the training… well, kinda. I have put in the work…kinda. I’ve taken advantage of the training… kinda.
The scam was done by me to me.
See, I thought I could do just a little and get a huge return. The little I have done has paid off a little. Proof that you get out what you put in. So yeah, I think I've been scammed. I did it to myself. Now for the hard part, coming to grips with the fact that I’ve conned myself and actually doing what those guys Kyle, Carson, and Jay (and almost a thousand others) have been telling me since day 1. Follow the training. Put in the work. Continue to get better and more efficient.
I think I've been scammed… by me. It’s time for me to get to work making MY Goals come true. How about you? Still conning yourself that an hour or 2 is enough?
Are you actively going after your dream? Or like me, just going thru the motions?

Really easy to get caught up in the community here. And with all of Life's distractions...

It’s one of the valuable lessons of life - you have to put the heart ❤️ into your dream. Otherwise, it will remain just a dream. 🌟 Nellya
Heart... Most definitely! Without a true passion for what you are doing, its like burning rubber off your tires. Sounds great but it doesn't really get you any place.
Well I have learned that it is all about you whether you scam yourself or not. Another lesson I learned is that with every great opportunity work is calling your name.
Agree whole hearted with opportunity being another way of saying work. For me, I have to stay focused, stay away from the bright shiny object's.

You have awakened to a truth that will help you a great deal as you continue. Now you know what it entails, and you can do accordingly.
Don't feel bad -- I have been here almost two years also, but I am learning so much and feel like I'm teetering on the brink of a breakthrough. With work, we both will make it.
Not so sure I feel bad, just amused and a little disappointed that I allowed myself to (all to often) just go thru the motions. The breakthru you mention, I've been close but not taken the extra steps to get there. We will do it, learned too much to give it all up now!
