Hey Friends

Hope everyone is doing well in WA land, just thought I'd do a quick drive by and drop off my weekend thoughts :).

Is Camel Dung Allowed On WA???

Because I know for sure, certain other words aren't allowed such as...However, this is the furthest I dare venture into the "Grey Zones"

A post I read

I was taking a break yesterday afternoon, and came across an online WA review that gave me a perspective which I'd never thought of. It wasn't quite the way I perceive WA, and in fact the review kind of rubbed me the wrong way, and so, I made a conscious decision to objectively entertain this person's point of view...

It's something I often do, especially when I find myself reacting to a different opinion, as I try as much as possible to pay close attention to my knee jerk reflexes, as they often point to something I need to look at inside my own Self.

What about this review rubbed me the wrong way?

All was going well, I was enjoying the post, until I read the following statement;

"WA caters mostly to people with no money, there are much faster ways to build your site, if you can afford it" .

Which of course as usual, was followed by their own covert promotional shtick.

Choke, knee jerk reaction, then my mind came to a sudden stumbling halt, as I realized how " I had allowed" this person's simple review, upset my fragile nature, and usual happy go lucky disposition. Hey, what you laughing about?

I took a few honest moments with myself, to pinpoint what exactly my internal flare up was all about. It didn't take much introspection to figure it out .

True, False and Camel Dung

Though I'd like go deeper into my whole internal process, I'll do my best and keep it short.

True; I don't have much money, however if I did, would I still be here?

Darn right I would, I Love learning here, why?

~People here enjoy learning,building and understanding

~We are passionate about sharing

~Our community actually cares about each other

~A University atmosphere, where you get to meet all kinds of intelligent, quirky people, who offer up many a different takes on things. and who think outside the box.

~ The knowledge, training, and support is clearly a cut above anything else available. If a person wants to succeed, this is the sure fire place to learn how.

So ya, I'm here not because of a money issue, I'm here because WA is a place after my own heart. It's a world built on the premise of individual and collective success, ethical capitalism, altruism, and the solid facts and training, we need to aquire for true and lasting success.

I could go on, there's just so much good stuff to mention about WA.

I felt much better after thinking about it all, honestly acknowledging to myself that the "money part" had nothing to do with my presence here at WA. However it had triggered my own slight lack of self worth and insecurities. Sheesh, my Ego sure can get me reacting at times.

False; Actually, you don't have to be Einstein to realize that the whole review was a dumptruck load of camel dung, and I've been around enough camels lately, to know it when I smell it. All one has to do is to take a look around WA, take note of the successful members that have started here, and are still here, still teaching, learning, and earning.

Well I feel much better now, thanks so much for allowing me to indulge, getting this off my chest

Think I'll go shake off my boots, phew what a smell!



Oh, before I go, just a quick Reminder :)


Speaking of Success and great Members here, remember to keep an eye out tomorrow for Robert's (boomergp08) Monthly Sunday post, "Having Fun Learning". Personally, I can't wait, I need the laugh, (and the great tips)...

That's All For Now Folks

How did you know I was laughing:))) when you wrote the words "upset my fragile nature"

That said;)

To be honest, if I was blessed with a big 6 figure bank account, I wouldn't have searched for an education online to improve my chances on the labor market, and was definitely not here.

Ah, I knew that would most likely give both you and Willem a rise!!!
How's your head feeling today, after your birthday bash. Sad I missed it :(
Have a good rest today Sis :)
Joseph

My head is quite right, I had quality drinks:))

:)

Thank you, Joseph!
This is good stuff! It also makes me recenter myself and the importance to focus on the positive. I think itès also a good reminder to WA members what attracted us to WA in the first place and what keeps so many here. Like you said, it is a great place of caring people, they also have an awesome wealth of knowledge from an infinite realm of experience.
Hey who knows, WA may be the beginnings of a futuristic Starfleet Academy ;)
Ok, that last statement may just be my lack of sleep talking, but who knows.
Cheers
Paul

Interesting Thought, hmmm, I kind of like the idea
Thanks Paul :)
Have a good one
Joseph

It doesn't matter how much I'll be earning this year, next year and the year after - I'll still be here at WA sharing the good stuff with my friends. There will always be people who fling camel dung around, I'm glad they're not part of WA.

I expect it, lol. Where would we be without ya Sis?

Anyone can buy their way to a great website, but unless you learn how to do it yourself, you will never be able to replicate it. I for one would not wish to be anywhere else other than WA :)

I hear you Jude...
Thank You :)
Have a great w/end

I think Karma is already in motion.

Unavoidable Cosmic Law :)

Sounds like someone was doing exactly as you described. They are wanting to bring others down in order to promote themselves. That may work in the short term but long term they will fail. That is because their focus is in the wrong place.

Best Wishes

Well Ron, personally I don't practice this type of promotion, it just feels wrong, and leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Thanks for taking the time my Friend, and have great w/end

Great post Jozeph I have seen some negative reviews on WA there are always those who will try and bring down another just to try and make money off of it.. as I say "no one needs to agree with me this works for me and that is all I need to know." if we allow self doubt to work on us then we will jump from one thing to another then we truly will never succeed

Hi Katie
Personally I feel that self doubt is an important part of how we evolve, just as Courage isn't the absence of fear, it's developing the ability of facing them.
That said, I totally understand what you mean, well said.
Have a great w/end Sis

Excellenf, Jozeph! Interesting reading when you're processing a thought. =)

Have a good weekend!

Hi Susan
I agree, thought processes are quite subtle and elusive at times
Have a great W/end

Hi Joseph,
This is a very interesting post. I enjoyed every bit of it. I can understand your reaction to this persons review of WA. I guess, what this person does not understand is, WA is not all about making money.Perhaps he/she is not interested in the bigger picture.

Thanks Achuthan, great hearing from you
Have a great Weekend
Joseph
