What is the New Rich?

There's a book by Tim Ferriss called "The 4-Hour Work Week" and if you haven't read it, it's one of those you need to get in your library. It's all about not accepting the status quo, thinking like an entrepreneur, and using the tools we have available in this technological age to take life back and be your own boss.

I loved it, and I found it just as I started my journey here with Wealthy Affiliate.

Tim Ferris answer to "What is the New Rich?" is this: The New Rich (NR) are those who abandon the deferred-life plan and create luxury lifestyles in the present using the currency of the New Rich: time and mobility.” – Tim Ferriss

So many people accept the status quo of working for someone else for 40+ years and then trying to figure out how to make it earning 40% less in retirement.

The truth is it's a failing business model and everyone knows it.

Taking Life Back

What I love about the community here at Wealthy Affiliate is how everyone is working together, proactively pushing back against the status quo, and using the tools and training we are so fortunate to have here to take life back.

There are hundreds of thousands of active members here from all walks of life, from all over the world: single moms & dads, young entrepreneurs, newly retired career workers ready for the next challenge, people fed up with being overworked.

And every single one has realized that there's something more out there. You're worth more & you deserve to have both the time freedom and the financial freedom to reach your goals.

So how do we do it? We use this amazing vehicle we have in this training platform called Wealthy Affiliate. In the age of the internet, so few know how to use it as tool to capitalize on and this gives all of us a huge leg up.

The Big 4 at Wealthy Affiliate

These are the 4 straightforward steps to take to build your own successful affiliate marketing business, no matter what your experience level. I know this firsthand and have seen just how quickly these steps can add up to palpable success.

1. Choose an Interest: Your niche is where you're going to set up shop. Do you love travel and photography? Then aim your business in that direction. Love gaming and computers? Aim there. Choosing your niche around your passion ensures that you will actually enjoy creating that content that will ultimately turn traffic into revenue for you.
   
2. Build a Website: Never built a website before? No problem. No matter what your level of experience is, you'll be guided step by step through a simple process that will have your website up and running and live in minutes. You'll then be trained lesson by lesson, course by course on how to build up its framework from scratch and how to soon fill it with quality content that will lead you to critical step 3.
3. Attract Visitors: Traffic is the lifeblood of your business. With no traffic, you have no opportunity for revenue. Here at Wealthy Affiliate we have the best keyword research tool for SEO fully integrated into our platform and we're trained on how to use it so that we can know exactly what our target audience is searching for. When you know what your audience is searching for, you write content that is the answer to those searches and guess what? Google starts sending you tons of free traffic your way. Cue step 4:
4. Earn Revenue: Quality content turns traffic into conversions and consistent monthly revenue. It doesn't come overnight, it takes work. Everything that's worth building takes work. But you already knew that. And this is why you're here.
   

When you pair the right tools and training that we're given here at WA with the drive and focus of someone who's ready to break from the status quo and take life back, you have the equation for success.
