Diving in !

OK, so here I am in the WA community, having just paid my monthly premium fee. I had been working as a software developer from 1989 until early 2015, when my role was made redundant. After 26 or so years working in the finance sector, my passion for 'climbing the corporate ladder' had waned considerably. Upon being made redundant, I landed a job as a baggage handler at the local international airport. This has been, by far, the most enjoyable workplace in my entire working life. There is something truly special (almost sacred) about being on the tarmac, loading and unloading baggage, freight, and pets. Furthermore, I just love working alongside my colleagues, some of whom are now soulmates. Granted, not everyone can get along with everyone, but that's how the world turns.

For a few years, I have made some half-hearted attempts at looking at ways to create a revenue stream using the internet. However, about a month ago, I came to the realisation that if I want to create that revenue stream, if I want to buy that Trek Madone 9.5 for my son, if I want to author my own success story, then I will have to immerse myself into WA.

I will continue to eat, live, think, drink and sleep WA during my working hours, for it is only through passion and commitment that we can truly achieve success. I am confident that my journey, and yours, will be a fulfilling experience, and hopefully a highly profitable one too ! :)

Hi! I am a newbie on the WA site. It was a dull night, I couldn't sleep or rest my mind...and I began to think about my place in the world, how I could open my eyes and be in a new place, new world, having success in something I had a passion for.

I am a retired medical billing and coding specialist, lol. I was GREAT at it but after years of it I got tired of just looking at a screen that helps people get the care they deserve but it doesn't have much to do with me. I'm not the one who created anything to help. Basically entering data, switching codes, phone calls.

When I saw the WA in my search and read it and others involved, trying to do the same thing I am, trying to do something that will make them and someone else happy? I'm drawn to it. Whether it's one on one or millions of people, helping others has always made me feel good. The only problem now is I don't know how exactly to begin? Do I send an invite to all my contacts on LinkedIn or pound the pavement? Obviously I will start with LinkedIn. Just wanted to add a little humor to this mundane thought.

Anywho...wish everyone great luck and I hope (fingers crossed) to get my 300 & see you in Vegas!

Hi there Erica, just start the training, very soon you will find yourself with a stack of niche ideas, pick one or two only, they all take work. And away you go with your new passion.

Really, though, I have got to say, follow the training as well as you can, it is invaluable. Wishing you huge success online my friend.:-))Steph

Hi, David!

Congrats on going premium. I love your attitude. Your immersion into Wealthy Affiliate I'm sure will be rewarded.

I understand and admire your decision to leave corporate life. Years ago, I was a disenchanted intelligence officer. I left that world to be a handyman for 7 years. The decision made me human again.

I'm here for you,
Gary
