Just put it out there!

Have you ever been just stuck?

I mean like, argggggggh, what am I doing wrong?

Bordering insanity because you are doing the same thing over and over again and expecting that this time when I refresh all will be good. Only to find that it's not and you're right back to where you started, only this time a little bit more dull and perplexed inside your head than you were five minutes ago.

Well just stop!!

Take five!!

Big breath in, hold, big breath out!!

And..........turn to your community for help.

I had 2 issues with a site I'm building in its early stages and I just couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. I was going over and over and over the same thing time and time again, each time thickening and dulling up my grey matter more than the previous attempts, until I couldn't do it any more.

Then I had a light builb moment.

A little voice whispered to me, "Douglas, just ask for help in the form of a question to the good folks here at W/A, and see what comes back".

And so that's exactly what I did. I put my 2 little questions out there.

And WAM!!

Like a lighten bolt, an answer came flying back from one of our brilliant ambassadors here that gave me what I needed to resolve the issue.

Altogether 4 ambassadors came back with answers to help resolve both issues I was having.

I did this whilst out in my day job, up a hill, in awe of our wonderful autumnal colours, in our wonderful fresh Scottish rain andI couldn't wait to get home to get the laptop opened up and get sorted.

And that's exactly what I did.

I got sorted.

All the frustration and anxt was gone in about half an hour. My site was sorted and peace was once again restored.

So..........dont do as I did, and get all worked up.

if you are stuck with a problem, no matter how big or small.

PUT IT OUT THERE!!

And help will come.

Ask a question. There's a wee box for it to go in and a wee button to press send.

Help will come.

Thank you ambassadors.

You know who you are. 🙏.
