KEEP THE FAITH.
I read in one book that behind every fortune is a crime. Throughout my years I have tried to dispel this notion that behind every fortune is a crime personally and it has been with much doing. The reason being that I have seen people flourish because of ill-gotten gain and at times It has brought a despondency to me about keeping my faith. Unfortunately just as belief goes, ill obtained wealth does not profit much in the short and long term whatever way.

If I have to keep my faith, then I always have to do the right things than to follow shortcuts and underhand methods like corruption, bribery and other unconventional methods in my dealings. This attitude towards life kept me hunting for an opportunity in the world where I needed not do wrong in order to be financially independent and money worry free. I have been on Wealthy Affiliate now for barely a year.

THE DETOUR.
You cannot imagine how well I felt I started on this platform. It was with much eagerness until I was faced with challenges of where to settle. I could not concentrate on my learning and being productive on my business just after about four months of starting. All I started doing was to move from place to place trying to find a habitable environment where I could ply my newfound trade, that of generating income the smart way online unperturbed. It is with utmost gladness that I am now settled in the NorthWestern part of my country and I can go back to my writing. I am even smiling at myself as I write my third blog here. What a feeling I used to get each time I would look at my rankings and the only two posts done by me on my blog! At one time I even defaulted on my subscription. I could not allow my opportunity here to go begging. Despite the detour from my focus, I pulled myself together and got things back on track.

MY PASSION.
Allow me to share with you that I had to go through all the first two parts of the online entrepreneurship certification two recollect and catch up with things. Ask me what! I am set to continue. I just had to keep myself abreast after a long lay off which was sort of self-inflicted. My belief and to the best of my knowledge is that I chose the right business on Wealthy Affiliate because of the key components I find here:

  • The Company
  • The products
  • The Management team
  • The timing
  • The returns
  • Te interactions
  • The community
  • Overall the state-of-the-art know how

Just as Peter Trucker says, "Opportunity in the market place is because of the process of convergence.....Convergence of forces that were not previously together.

In this era, all roads lead to online activities and I am happy to be part of this trend which will keep me off the notion that, "Behind every fortune, there is a crime," as I look forward to making my honest income online doing what I have a passion for and that is being of help to others in some way and benefiting from my work.

MY PROGRESS AND EXPECTATIONS.

I wrote my money goals last December and as I looked at them, I realized I was going to do it because it is possible. Suffice to say though I have not got my first commission yet, I am still on the right track and I am glad I started my online career in the Health/Wellness and money making solutions. It was also with joy to learn that two of my articles were indexed on Google. I have rekindled my dream and I intend to do as per what is possible in income earnings in the next three months. The six months period duration from now must be my answer and proof to the title of this blog. See you at the top with much love.

Interesting post!
There are so many ways to make a fortune. I think most of the great fortune of this world is made by the sweat of the brow and not by corruption and crime. If we are all here, it is also because we seek to become more than comfortable financially and we do so, following a virtuous and healthy model. I prefer to think that the large part of the people who became rich became so in this way. Even if the evil exists, it is not everywhere and we are the proof of it. Because we will become very prosperous if we hang on and we can look at ourselves proudly in the mirror every morning.

To our success!

Thanks for the encouraging words.I am most humbled.

Hi Musumali. I did enjoy reading your post this morning.
I guess one could view the world through different lenses.
One could think that behind every fortune is a crime. As you relate many find fortune through corrupt methods.
The problem is that not all fortune is made this way. While some are, others are made when someone takes a unique idea and finds a way to use it to help society. In the process they might just earn a fortune.
Others look through a lens that opportunities are all over and those who use the opportunity to better themselves and others will find many blessings and some fortune.
This opportunity through WA takes time, so much to learn, but when one is persistent there is a way to earn a little or a fortune, it's all in the eye of the beholder.
Thanks again for a thoughtful post. Wishing you all the best of success on your journey here and hope to hear more from you in the future.
