These elements are the very basics of the foundation necessary for building a website. The terms may seem a bit confusing and even in some cases overwhelming.

These feelings are not unusual, rest assured you are not alone. The varying degrees to which a person becomes confused and/or overwhelmed depends on a few factors. Most of these can be directly associated with Age, further expanded upon in For All Generations:

** Not In Any Particular Order **

1. Unfamiliar With Current Technologies
2. Unfamiliar With All The New Terms Specific To An Online Business
3. Fear of Online Exposure
4. Difficulty With Self Learning
5. Concern Of Breaking Things In The Software
6. I Don’t Know What I Don’t Know, How Can I Ask My Questions?
7. Financial Pressures
8. I Have Done All Of This Work, Why Am I Not Seeing Certain Results?
9. Realizing, I Have Done This Before, I Know I Have, But Now I Have No Idea Where To Go Back To In Order To Do It Again
10. Wanting To Be Right Instead Of Being Teachable
11. Health
12. Expecting/Hoping For Results Right Away

16. How Closely The Person Follows The Training Here At Wealthy Affiliate
17. Not Following The WA Training And Doing All Of The Action Items Associated With Each Of The Lessons
18. Forgetting To Give Ourselves A Big Woo Woo Pat On The Back When We Have Struggled To Figure Something Out And We Do It! (I myself have gotten into the habit of doing a fist pump in the air and actually saying Woo Woo to myself, my roommates look at me funny at times, who cares)
19. Getting Distracted Easily.
20. Fear Of Social Media

I was amazed with the World Class Training here at Wealthy Affiliate in part because breaks are actually built directly into the training in an attempt to alleviate people from getting overwhelmed.

Lesson 5 of 10, for pretty much all of the Wealthy Affiliate Courses. have within the task list to take a break, several days worth of a break as a matter of fact. I myself must confess, I did not take the recommended breaks. Did You? (no need to answer to anyone except yourself).

I truly believe the 7/24 Chat, Private Messaging, Training, and Questions framework allow for WA people to reduce the information overload we all sometimes feel.
