Unusual Experiences With Growth
Have you ever been derailed by a chain of unusual experiences?
If you have, then you can well relate to the chain links of unusual experiences I encountered within the past 13 months.
Thankfully during that time my mental application, daily drive, effort and determination were in abundance and in high gear. The hurdle appeared simple and easy. I was lead to believe that they will be easily resolved.
Panic mode did not cross my mind; neither did I believe that the unusual experiences were a threat to my business, instead I saw them as pesky challenges.
Eventually two challenges held me hostage, days turned into weeks, weeks into months and months into a year.
The first challenge started in August 2015 to July 2016.
I was unable to receive comments from my blogs, all comments were omitted. I was only able to receive email notifications from Blue Host with the Users Name and Email Address.
I made numerous attempts, spent countless hours with Word Press, Blue Host and H/P support to correct the errors, but to no avail. Instead progress stood still.
Once the computer screen turned RED and the site was blocked by Blue Host. They referred me to Site Lock, to remove the virus. The service is not FREE. However, for RED, BLUE and BLACK screen viruses the service proved worthy.
Sem Rush did a Diagnostic search which categorized the problem as 404 errors.
I Out- Sourced the blog 4 times to Fiverr. Finally the last representative Farrukh Bilal did a fantastic job at resolving the issues. It’s rare to find a Computer Analysis who is a good listener, knowledgeable, humble and masterful in his profession, I was fortunate to finds such an individual.
Have you ever had an experience which dominated and altered your progress?
13 Months of Unique Daily Activities:
Monday – Friday Daily Training Wednesday Night Training Tuesday Training 1 Monthly Training
10 Blogs were published One new Blog was created I completed 3, Six Weeks Study Courses I sent Re-Connection Emails trying to reconnect with past users.
Blogging is my primary marketing platform, in blogging I am most comfortable expressing myself in strategies unknown to me.
I began branding my-self, building an audience, producing relevant content of interest to engage my audience; before introducing them to my primary service.
Determined Drive
I had 13 months of extensive Internet Marketing training available on the market. I learned that my blogging strategy and format is good. Unfortunately, I was emotionally frozen and unable to focus and fully practice the techniques being taught.
With my Blog not functioning properly, I tried to practice new techniques and implement different strategies for continual growth. Although my motivation and eagerness were high, I failed to implement any new marketing strategy.
Have you ever beat up on yourself for not running away with opportunities at hand?
I also realized that, I had forgotten to implement a fundamental principle in business growth.
Daily I engaged in prayer and devotion. Still my life was void of meditation on my goals and visualization of my goals; to enhance the correct mind-set needed to achieve my overall objective. I was totally absorbed in getting the Blog corrected and functioning properly, that I had forgotten to include meditation and visualization for success.
Good Marketing with a smooth operation are paramount for success. Leaders of the organization must possess mental and emotional strengths; professional abilities to handle chaos and difficulties when they arise.
The absence of such leadership qualities; are invisible handicap which stifles growth and sabotage the organization.
As I began to meditate, visualize and call forth the desired results, obstacles began fading away.
Thank You!
My blog and the experiences of my absence, may seem unusual to share especially; since they are not accomplished business success. Instead, it’s about dark days we’ll all like to forget, in the new endeavor of Internet Marketing.
Never the less I feel compelled, as I believed my abrupt departure from the pattern of communication we had develop were rudely interrupted without an explanation. Especially since I was an 8 month old Blogger with 150 users, Google and YouTube were my only instructors and I had just began to find my way.
At first I was surprised to receive your warm and favorable remarks, even more surprising as to how much I enjoyed and relied upon receiving your remarks. You boosted my confidence tremendously, in reply I eagerly responded to each remark in great detail.
It may seem corny, but I am so thankful to everyone who responded to my blog when I first started.
Before getting back into building my audience, I had to say Thank You for sowing and investing your time and diligence to read and comment on my blog.
PS. With immense gratitude I wish you all smooth success in your endeavor.
Sincerely,
Donna Richards
