Well I've finally became a Premium member (no surprise there, as it was just a matter of time before I moved past that particular road block). As I began to jump into all this wonderful training, I quickly found myself loosing myself. Every which-a-way I looked I saw something I wanted to read, or do. I have a ton of lessons to go through and a limited amount of time to do it in if I want to reach any of my short term goals. This project is so voluminous that it is much easier to get distracted then it is to stay focused on your current task at hand.

What I quickly found that works for me is if I see something I want to know more about I just jot it down, pretty simple resolution right? For anyone who has attended online universities you may know a little about what most online professors call "the parking lot" If during the current lesson you have a question you write it down and store it somewhere in the class chat board. Well apply that same thing here, write any questions, ideas, random thoughts, and or concerns down and when your finished with your training time you've set aside for that day, then i suggest exploring whatever it is that briefly took your attention away.

My personal experience here as been great, I really cannot express the way I'm feeling now. I've read numerous post's of people who are just beginning, and post of people who have been here a bit longer, and I feel Im home, I also feel like I've waisted a great deal of time doing other things in the past year when If I only would've pursued this when I found it last year. I've learned so much in only the past few days, Im quickly realizing the sky is the limit. Im urging every beginner who reads this, dont run away from this, face your fears and your fears will disappear.
