Nothing of great significance

Hi all,
this is just a hello to everyone here on the forum. I'm a new member and am looking forward to my education in internet marketing although I KNOW t's going to be a hard slog!I initially joined this forum a few years ago but due to an increase in my anxieties I had to put it on hold. Let's hope I can make it stick the second time around! I suffer severly from body dysmorphic disorder and havent been able to leave the house in over 15 months. I'm even too scared to open the door to the postman! I get terrible anxiety attacks and dont sleep well at night because of it. Because of this my option of employment has been somewhat limited! I refuse to go on benefits as for me personally, Id rather get paid for doing something and it'll also give me a greater sense of self worth.

Anyway that's a little about my self and my situation. I look forward to corresponding with you all in the not so distant future.

Warmest regards
gaz

    Hello Rick and Will. Thank you for the welcome. I'm so glad to have come across such an inavaluabe forum. I'm also tempted to join the war room, for such a low price it would seem foolish not to!
    Kind regards

    Hi Gaz,

    Welcome. First of all, I hope you are able to benefit greatly from the WF. You can turn your problems into blessings both for your self and for others. In a sense you have a built in niche to write about and even chronicle your progresses and set backs.

    On the other hand if you want to take a break from thinking about your problems you can do that too by focusing on other subjects.

    One positive is you have the time to study and create IM related and other niche related products.

    I wish you the best, keep posting.

      Hi George and thank you for the welcome.
      You make an excellent point. I have had this problem for a good 7 years now and can relate easily to those who suffer from anxiety/panic attacks etc. It's about time I faced up to it as I see life passing me by and it scares the hell out of me! It would also be an honour to be able to help others. I would guess however that the self help/anxiety etc niche is quite a competitive market to get involved in and maybe not a good place to start for a newbie? One thing that really scares the hell out of me is product creation, I wouldn't know where to start!
      I will leave that for another thread I think :-)
      Kind regards

        The product creation is the easy part. The hard part is credibility and thus instilling confidence in people so they buy from you as an expert. Seems like you have that covered though. You are living it.

      Hello Cathy,
      what a great saying.
      Yes I do often sit here and think 'if only'! Better late than never I suppose!! 2006 was a particular bad year for me and it really put a cog in the works. I wont bore you with the details however. Suffice to say I have learnt from these past mistakes and am now a stronger person and am ready to take the bull by its horns! I remember reading a quote from Thomas Edison-
      ' I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward'

      Failure at some point in my internet marketing career will be an inevitability. I'll have to be strong, take it on the chin and learn from it! That's what learning is all about right?
      Thank you for taking the time in replying to my thread.
      Kind regards
