I actually had an answer!
So, I received an email with the subject that someone was having a hard time with their home page (cyberchimps were all over it). I read every email from WA that I get. Reading people's ideas or questions helps me along the way, too.
So, I dove into the email. When I followed the link to her website, I discovered that she was using the same theme that I was.. and OHH BOY is it hard to figure out how to edit it!
So I immediately messaged back! I had spent some time playing around with it to see if I could figure out how to adjust the layout, and I had. I probably only had about 2/3 of the answer that she needed, but pointed her in the right direction, regardless.
My oh my what progress I've made since I joined. I really truly NEVER thought I'd be the one answering someone's question!
Has anyone else had such a wonderful experience?

It's fun when you can start helping other people along their way isn't it? Especially when you start at the beginning not knowing anything, like me. I appreciate the people here, so it's nice to be able to give back once in awhile. Job well done!
I love the positive thinking and motivation, and the pay it forward atmosphere. At my old job, I referred to my associates as "my family" and I feel like I can do that here with everyone as well!
WTG Jeannette, I had to look up several times answers before I could help someone. That is the beauty of teaching as when you are helping others in the end your actually helping yourself.

So true! Much like learning the new processes at my old job; the more we trained each other, the more we retained and could help someone else. Very rewarding, that part of it!
I'm working on my WA promo site right now.. I was stuck on narrowing down a niche. Figured the experience would help me whittle down the niche to something more manageable. I was starting with a site with stay at home moms in mind.. way too broad! As I'm learning more each day, I've got a ton of different ideas I've been writing down!
This is awesome Jeannette!
It's really powerful to help someone because as you help them you are putting what you have learned to use, and that gives you a much better understanding of the subject.
At WA we are a pay-it-forward community where we help one another and the benefit is not only to the people that you are helping. When you can help someone else, you have proven that you have a good understanding of the topic.
Great to see you making so much progress! I'm sure that the theme you are using will become more and more familiar and easier to edit!
Cheers,

Thanks Carson! I believe in the Law of Attraction, and paying it forward is one of the many things to bring the universe into alignment. That was a big reason why I chose WA.. or did it choose me?
Yes I have and you are right, it felt great! It's a great rush when you realize you not only retained the information but are able to regurgitate it in a way that helps someone else. Way to go! This won't be the last time!!
Very big rush! I stayed up passed my bedtime that night working on my site because I was so energized! hahaha
