Wednesday March 22, 2021
I said that I would continue to post and interact here to hold myself accountable in my business endeavors. I'm doing well. I'm finding things to actually make money online. My earnings account is building up to be transferred to Paypal. It's not a lot of money, yet. But it's something. I could be doing much better if I didn't give up on certain things in the past. But I digress.
Being an over-achiever growing up, I've never been used to not succeeding. Then after failing on so much in my adult life, I just totally shut down for a long time. It was definitely depressing. The thing is that I'm just not a quitter. I may not want to do something and procrastinate. But eventually after taking some time to figure out something, I get myself back up and try again.
No longer do I have the fear of failure. Sometimes you have to fail to eventually succeed. Like sports, you win some and you lose some. But there's always next season.
Thanks for the support:

@TishaMears Not a problem. It's all good here. The idea behind this site, is to create friendships and get good conversation going. If you get paid in the process, then that's an extra bonus.

@TishaMears Yeah, it can be. A lot better than Facebook I assure you. I remember Myspace, too. That was , like many, my first step in the social media game. I understand the dumpster fire Facebook is. During the hight of COVID, you couldn't post without insulting someone. Or someone would complain how "bad" CoVID was, yet, they were more than well enough to complain about it, and type/dictate lengthy posts, despite claiming they couldn't breathe. So, I pretty much stopped going on there. Once in a while I might check notifications, but... yeah.

@kaylachan Yes. I found that out the hard way. You have to do many sites to build up your payout account. When I first started on this path some 20 odd years ago, I was looking for "get rich quick" schemes. Of course, there's no such thing. Everything takes time and patience. I learned that with age and wisdom. Thanks for the positive vibes and good advice

@rakski Thanks! I've always like this platform. I would just get so busy with life and things here at home that sometimes I wouldn't have time to sit and interact here

It took time for me to get here, but I'm here. I have a lot on my plate. And I don't have any emotional support from my family... It's funny that strangers can be kinder than your own flesh and blood.

I'm so glad you're not a quitter and that you no longer have the fear of failure.
I found life is about failing, not succeeding. When you fail, it gives you the motivation to find a new way to make things work. Keep going. You will succeed through your failure and will be a better person for it. I know I am.

That is true since failure is not fatal but a way to learn to keep moving forward.

@Deepizzaguy I have to say that failure for me when I first started looking for online work felt fatal. I needed extra money to support the household income after having a child with my then husband. I'm divorced now and doing better on my own. I can do bad by myself, and my then husband just wasn't financially supportive enough on his own for our family. We separated for more than that reason even though it's said that the number 1 reason for divorce is finances. We definitely weren't on the same page about budgeting household income versus household expenses. I'm doing so much better as a single mother, and my daughter is happier without him living here with us. Separated and then later divorced for over 10 years now. Took some time to get better mentally to do the work productively, and I'm still learning. But I do believe I'm happier and healthier. Thanks for the positive vibes and good advice

I freelance online in many different areas. Affiliate marketing, testing apps, blog writing, etc... I'd like to start a genuine accounting business, but I'm building to get a startup loan for that business. I'm doing many things to earn money online.

@TishaMears have you ever looked at dropshipping??
I made some money there a few years ago.
If you get it right it can be good.
You do need to build your own site but it doesn't take that much of an investment and there are plenty of places to get some help.
