Making Close to $4K a Month in My Niche But I'm Lazy

WOW WA!!! The new platform looks GREAT! Yeah, I know most of you are used to it already but this is my first day/night on the new platform. I've been busy growing and earning more money in my niche and thus it has made me lazy in getting back into the community.
SOMETIMES MAKING MONEY CAN MAKE YOU LAZY
Now I know why many of the WA Ambassadors I followed when I first started here, are no longer as active if at all on the platform. Of course many could have had life changing experiences that have forced them off, but I'm sure many are making lots of money and are doing other things.
This is where I am in my 12 year journey (WOW, 12 Years?) here at Wealthy Affiliate. Several years ago I was ranked around 5 in the WA Ambassadorship program and I was making decent WA commissions. However, now I finally have a money making niche of my own and put most of my time there.
In the past two years I have slipped off in the WA rankings, it's not a big deal for me anymore, and have been occasionally interacting here and there within the community. My time is mainly spent in my regular job and my niche, which happens to be related to my regular job.

I was making $3,000.00 per month in my niche two years ago and now I am making close to $4K per month. Earning passive income is FUN!. For those of you who are new here at WA, I blogged about my niche two years ago. If you are curious about what it is, you can read about it here.

WHY AM I LAZY?
I'm certainly not lazy in growing my niche, like I said, it's related to my regular job in healthcare. My laziness is getting back and staying back within this great community and training platform. Seeing how I am doing well in my niche, the urgency to STAY active here in WA is challenging for me.
I went through the training here. I made money promoting WA. I know the training works and now that my niche is earning me more money, I'm starting to be like those former WA Ambassadors which I used to look up to. I see they are still here, just not as active, and that is where I am too.
I also get it. As Wealthy Affiliate keeps evolving it brings new opportunities and new adventures. This new platform update looks NICE! Reading Kyle's latest "Weekly Challenge" about reviving something you started got me thinking that I should revive my presence here, even if it's not to the level it once was.
So my point and advice to all of you here at WA who have yet to earn your steady passive income...DO NOT STOP! DO NOT QUIT! It will happen if you focus on that goal and not get distracted. One day you too can be lazy about your activity here, if you choose to, once the money starts rolling in.
I would rather be lazy in this way, than to leave WA all together. I will NEVER leave this community. There is so much knowledge and inspiration here that DOES lead to a better financial future and leaving makes absolutely no sense to me. Let me know your thoughts below and I'll see you around the community.
