I don’t mean to be sarcastic, but seriously, how long is a piece of string?

Well the answer is: “Is that it depends!”

It depends on how long the piece of string is.

It could be a short piece of string.

Or a long piece of string.

And it is the same with making money online with Wealthy Affiliate.

I mean, it is possible that you could write one blog post, share it to social media, and someone makes a purchase.

So it IS possible that you could make money in one day.

But is it realistic?

I don’t think so!

I do know of members that have made money in a very short space of time, and others have taken many, many months before they made anything at all.

I heard a story very recently that one member took 6 months to make a sale, but then in the following 6 months turned that into a full time income.

Thank you very much John. That was exactly what I needed to read at this point in time! I have kept at it steadily but seem to be at a point where I'm progressing a lot slower than I had been....however, I know I need to give it time and keep on going! So thanks for the extra encouragement - much appreciated :)

Very nice thoughts and reminder about patience. In general I think we are looking for quick fixes in all areas of our life. The problem is just that most of the quick fixes are not really fixes but just short term distractions. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience.

Great training, John!
I usually struggle with focus and I get distracted by the "next opportunity", I'm so curious so I'm like "how will this work for me?". I know people who want to succeed online but aren't still here in this community because they're so skeptical, even though it's already been proven that WA works =)

I know where you are coming from Miren, and I constantly try to "narrow" my focus, but it is a work in progress!
The real secret to making money online is not "if" it is possible, but actually following the blueprint, and working damn hard "until" you DO succeed!
But having the "belief" you can do it, is essential so you don't give up through the inevitable frustrations!
Thanks :-)

Thank you, John for the boost. I know this to be true and I still believe it. I've gotten away from my site here for awhile. A bit discouraged. I tweak the site at times. I'm trying to get back to it. Your training here has helped. Thank you, again. :)

Really glad to have helped!
I understand the frustration, but It is all a numbers game, and the more we build out content on our sites, the better chance at success we have.
Kyle calls it using "brute force" :-)

Hi John,

You are right of course, you cannot define how long it takes. One common theme that I have noticed with people who are successful is one that you mentioned...and I quote....

"It starts out very slowly, then it’s a trickle, then a steady flow, and then once enough momentum builds up, it’s a waterfall!"

Thanks for the training. Cheers.
