Goal Setting. TOP 100
Goal Setting
I set myself a Goal.
When setting this goal, I was struggling to find a purpose for it.
I think it is pretty important to have a reason or purpose when you are setting up a goal for yourself.
Having a purpose gives so much more meaning and value to what you are trying to achieve.
Goal Set
The goal I had set was to make it into the Top 100.
To achieve this.
I wrote blogs (not many).
Helped people, by answering questions and pointing them in the right direction.
Welcomed new people and new premium members to WA.
However, I had no reason or purpose behind this goal.
It was more like some kind of mindset, that came over me once I joined WA.
In the Process
In the process of making it into the top 100, I ended up writing this blog https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/daisyk78/blog/what-is-the-definition-of-an-ambassador
Reactions to this blog were very interesting, and I felt I may have annoyed a few people with it.
I did not intend to annoy anyone, I was merely "figuring out" the ranking system.
What I did find out, which I think is really interesting is that when you become an Ambassador you don't get anything, I would have thought for all the work you have done on behalf of WA, you might at least get a personal email from Kyle or Carson.
For a system that is based on Paying it Forward, finding this out blew me away.

This quote from the above blog
"We have set aside a BUDGET for the Ambassador program and throughout the year will be contacting those that we feel have Ambassador qualities and those that “retain” high rankings within the community".
I do hope those of you that have worked very hard to be an Ambassador, do get rewarded.
Goal Achieved
So I did achieve my goal of making it into the Top 100, and have been hovering around 80-90 for the week and slowly getting back down again.
BUT that is absolutely OK with me.
I now need to focus on Me and bit more, and get some content onto my sites.
I am so grateful
For being shown WA (thanks Mum).
For the training available (thanks Kyle and Carson).
For all the people that create training.
For all the people that help me along the way.
Kindest Regards
Daisy

"Seek not recognition for doing good, be happy in yourself to have shared that which you have, with someone else."
You've worked hard and given plenty to get into the top 100, congratulations Daisy.
For sure and thank you.
Like I said I'm absolutely ok with where I'm at but I have to weigh up what is the best use of my time at present, so more content writing and less time in a WA is it.
Thank you Daisy for helping others like me. Greatly appreciated! Yes, sometimes it is necessary to look after yourself and create more content to be fully satisfied. Wish you all the good luck in the world!

Goal setting should be at the forefront of everyone in WA. Without goals, you have no real meaning to your life.
You are doing very well Daisy, and I am where I am purely from helping others.

I would like to ask how you can make real money after finishing phase 2 of training? How does it make you make money just by writing blogs? How do you get to the next step promoting products so people can start earning commissions?
Hi Sophie
In the training you will find out all about it.
Affiliate Marketing is all about being an Affiliate of a company and marketing their products through blogs/articles on your site.
You need to learn how to do this properly otherwise you will not be successful.
I really encourage you to follow the training step by step.
Take your time and dont skip a step.
Dont run ahead, just stick to the training step by step.
Dont mean to sound like a broken record but it truly is the best way to learn if you are so new to Affiliate Marketing.

Congrats on making it to the top 100! You might have ruffled a few feathers but what you wrote in your blog is true - Ambassadors should be role models and must have participated in all WA activities.
The main reason being that all members must do so too i.e. participate in all WA activities making the community stronger and more cohesive.
The only flip side that I see of working towards being a high ranker is that those who have several websites may not be able to devote enough time towards developing them.
But I do agree that the Ambassadorship is something that sets WA apart from anything similar on the internet.
