When I first joined SFI, I wasn't sure whether it was safe to provide my personal information, but I did it because I was curious about the opportunity they were offering. Once inside, it took almost a month of daily visits to the SFI Forum before I got up the nerve to post my first question because I was shy and insecure, but I did it and now I look upon these wonderful people as my 'go-to' guys every time I have any doubts.
It also took me a while to request my first a2a (Affiliate to Affiliate) friendship because I didn't think anyone would be interested in an inexperienced newcomer, but in the end I did it and since then I have made many new a2a friends who are kind enough to congratulate me every time I win a prize or reach a new milestone. Let me tell you, it's really great to have your own cheering section!
As for the auctions at TripleClicks, I lurked around the site for many, many weeks before I dared to place my first bid. The first time I hit that 'Bid' button, I was so nervous thought I was going to have a heart attack. My heart was thumping so hard! Two seconds later I was outbid of course. Since then I have participated in several –without hyperventilating– and a couple of months ago I even won my very first auction. Again my heart-rate increased, but this time from sheer excitement.
So many new fears to overcome, and yet I think my biggest dilemma was deciding whether I could trust SFI's online store, TripleClicks, to safeguard my information. In fact I waited until I ran out of all the available free points on my initial To-Do list before I decided to take a 'leap of faith'. By then I had already reached the rank of Executive Affiliate (EA) and been assigned my first Co-Sponsored Affiliates to start my own team, so I was definitely motivated enough to continue to the next level.
I realized that the only way I could keep my brand-new team members, get new ones assigned to me every month and continue to receive shares in the Executive Pool, was to set up a monthly Standing Order at TripleClicks, so I did. That Standing Order gives me enough points to maintain my EA rank at SFI and receive the perks that go with it. It also allows me to concentrate on other things, like finding my very own Personally Sponsored Affiliates to add to my rapidly growing team.
Now that some time has passed and nothing particularly untoward has happened at TripleClicks, I feel more comfortable looking for and buying the products I need to maintain my Bronze Team Leader rank. Yes, I rose from EA to Bronze Team Leader for the second time* and there's no turning back now! I'm in it for the long haul.
In conclusion, what I want to say is: I'm glad I found the strength to conquer my fears. I have gained knowledge, found new friends and, most important, I am earning real money. Just think about it: if I hadn't been brave I wouldn't be writing this blog nor would I have created my own website, moirasmoneymakingmoves.weebly.com. Imagine what a huge loss that would have been for the world! Lmao!!!!!
Have a grrreat week!
* SFI gives you a one-time $10 dollars bonus when you reach Bronze Team Leader for the second time. Very nice!
