I finally achieved a goal I set for myself here at WA. No one can appreciate this more than I do.
About two months ago I decided that I needed more money than my retirement income provided. So I logged into my WA account once again. The last time I looked, my ranking was 700+. When I looked at my ranking again last September 2018, my ranking was 6600.
I looked at the rankings of other WA members and saw that many who joined less than a year ago had rankings in the top 200 or lower. couldn't like that.I didn' like the fact that I joined WA in 2008 and had little to show for it. The first time I joined WA I felt that I got a great deal, but sometime later I let my account lapse. When I paid again, my payment was higher. Not by a lot, but enough to make me go yearly when K and C offered it to me. That way I wouldn't have to worry about making monthly installments.
In the meantime, I was paying thousands of dollars to other internet marketers. Why? All because I was not able to build a website. My first attempt at building a website was with a company that offered me use of a WYSIWYG editor. I couldn't understand what I was being taught. So, I continued my search to learn how to build a website. I learned about internet marketing, but I still couldn't build a website. What good was that knowledge if I didn't know how to put it to use?

Little did I realize that my search to build a website was already waiting for me here. All I had to do was access the training, but couldn't. Not for a long time. A series of misfortunes prevented me from accessing my computer from 2015 to late 2017.
As I stated earlier, I saw all these members with less than a year in the top 200 in rankings. I set my goals to relearn the training that I had already begun ( OEC ) with Level 1. I had completed almost all of the Level 1 training, but so much time had passed that I forgot most of what I learned. My other goal was to get in the top 200.
Today, November 1, 2018, I accomplished that goal.!! This is a milestone for me because I am not really a goal setter. I sacrificed some training, but completing my goal to be in the top 200 is huge for me.
I want to thank everyone who helped me achieve this goal by commenting on my comments, the likes I received on comments I made and the follows from other members.
Now it's time to devote most of my time to my training. My next goal is to complete my next lesson. I am taking it one step at a time.
I hope that those who read this learn from me never to give up. Kyle and Carson have training here so easy to follow that even I finally understand what I am learning.
