Do You Desire Finanial Freedom and A New Life?
I've been a Pro member of Wealthy Affiliate for less than a month. Being a wary perfectionist, after 54 years of struggling through a life of successes and failures, something very odd is happening.
Put Worry and Perfectionism AsideW Kyalthy Affiliate and the superb video lesson by Kyle, the messages, support, and blog items from Jay and by members, and the furthering of education and information many of you create and share freely here are powerful.
In only a few weeks I have hardly touched upon all there is to learn and know. It seems that will be an endeavor impossible to get ahead of. Every day we receive new emails filled with new material from the owners and each other.
Along with many other things happening in my life (a new business venture that is going to cost me nothing out of pocket but has the potentila to a lot in my bank, eventually,) I've been taking in as much as I can from the Weatlhy Affilliate website and many of you who have offered educations, lessons, information, kindness, and support.
Through these alterations to my life, at 54 years old mind you, some very odd changes in me have been occurring, and I truly have to give most thte credit to you all, and especially the incredible kindness of Jay and Kyle.
Cool Man. What's Your Point, Dude?I've given up on many things in my life. Usually due to those i worked with or had to deal with. I've spent a lifetime trying to fit in and lowering expectations, and hiding my true self, abilites, and intelligence.
Here at WA, I've found there really are others on my level who don't merely want to be successful for monitary gains, or selfish goals. Like me, you want these things, but only if you are doing something good, helping others, and feel a desire to improve the lives of many and the world, at large.
Here Is What I've Accomplished Thus Far
My first niche WA site is up and running. It's barely ranked with Google, thus far, but it has received some traffic already. No, I have not done things in the exact order of lessons, thus far, and made technical errors that I've a very few on WA have barked at me about.
By the way, if you want to help others and ecourage them, no matter what level you are on WA, being kind, understanding, and more analytical and selective in your udnerstandin of each members situation, issue, and mistakes is much more valuable.
I have already deciced not to follow two folks that seem to be prickly, competitive and not so nice in their responses to some of us in the question area. That is fine. To each their own. I used to let this get to me so much in the past it cost me jobs, relationships, and even family members.
So, put defensiveness aside, choose your circle, and keep moving.
Again, my site is up. It looks imperfect. It is still devoloping as I watch more video lessons and fine-tune the site, my ideas and concepts, and add content.
I realize now, it will be a while befoer I earn anyting from the niche website. That is fine. If you joined Pro or Pro+ believing or expecting to start making any money or big money quicly, you are fooling yourself. I accpet it will take time.
I believe Kyle released something on this, today.
Yet, I am getting the feel of things, and dedicating many hours a day to getting it right. I admit, I am still unsure why changes I've made to parts of the site's look are not showing up when I visit my URL, but I know I will find and figure that out here at WA. Patence is the key!
Amazon Affiliate and MoreI am now an Amazon Affiliate Marketer. I have 18 to 20 blog articles on my Health and Welness related niche site a few of them veing the About Colin page, SSL, Amazon Affiliate Disclaimer Page, and one other technical article, I believe. The rest are random topics and articles to help visitors learn about the vast amoutn of Natural Healing opportunities that can and will change anyone's life.
I attached my first Amazon Stipe Link to an aritcle on Hebal Teas. I don't expect to see any number or sales from this for some time. No problem. Until the site is fully crafted, and more links to Amazon products, and other affiliate companies in my niche, I won't have the traffic...well, hardly any traffic, until then. Traffic = clicks = sales.
Although I have so far to go, I'm loosdning up with all of this, and beginning to have fun setting it up, even with the occassional technical frustrations which realistically come from not folliwng the education in order, and doing more that what is necessary in some situations, and getting ahead of myself. Well, that's just me. I wan't a musical star and recording artist by lagging behind, not taking risks, and puhing to do more than the average person.
If you are new to Wealthy Affilaite, I encourage you not to give up easly, be realistic and know it will take time, and be willing to maintain the small montly investment, and to give it your all and a fair amount of daily working hours, that you can afford. Your success is in your hands and depends on your mindset and drive to be successul and to help others in the long run. Much success to you!!

An excellent post, Colin. This is truly a great place to be. With the exception of the very small few who are abrasive and believe the only way is their way, the members here are the greatest. I completely understand and support you in trimming the dead wood, so to speak, from your circle of connects.
Wishing you the best of luck and it sounds like you are following the right path.
