Why Is Having A Support System Important
Today is mine and my AMAZING husbands six year anniversary. Although he is away working today, I was thinking about how fortunate I am.
I not only have his support, but I have the support of my family including my 2 girls that are still living here at home. So why is having a support system so important?
The Stress Of It All
At some point during your journey to success, you will find that there will be times you will become a little stressed out.
It might be because you also have a job to do outside your home, or you might even have little ones that you are also tending to.
When we are trying to focus on the training here and implementing it all correctly, that can also be a little stressful if we don't truly understand it.
Having this great community can be a life saver. I know they have helped me more than once and they continue to do so.
They are also really good at helping us to become less stressed if they know what is causing the stress.
Support You Can Count On
Like I just said, this community can and will most likely get you through anything that you might come across that causes you issues.
Having the support you can count on, may be just what helps you on your path to success. If you don't let them help, then it may be what causes the delay in your success or even cause you to fail.
Not everyone here has a support system in place. Many of us are aware of how different everyones lives may be.
Which is why I feel you need to know that you can count on this community when you need to.
You are not alone here, and you Do Not need to go though it alone. I am not saying that we are here to help you financially, but we are here to help you with getting your site set up.
We will also help you by giving you encouragement when you need it and even advice. You have to be the one who lets us know that you need help.
Who Is Your Support System
The fact that we all have our own story of why we are here and what brought us here, are similar but still very different, just like who our support system may be.
I have seen others speak about how their families think they are wasting their time and money, while others are actually teamed up with family members.
There are teams that consist of husband and wife, mother and daughter, father and son, mother and son and so on.
But what about those of you who are alone or whose family and friends aren't supportive of what you are trying to do?
Just that alone would be an issue for me. I couldn't imagine not having someone there for me telling me they believe in me or what I am trying to do.
Who do you turn to? I am not saying that being alone is a bad thing, but if you have family that isn't supportive, I am sure that causes you more stress.
If you have no one to turn to, I will be there. I will be there to help you with anything within reason. If I don't know the answer I will hunt for it.
We Need Support
And Encouragement
Learning to build our own business online is very exciting and of course stressful at times. Having support helps us to stay on the right path and it can help prevent us from getting discouraged and giving up.
No matter what you do in life, having support makes it much easier and manageable. Your performance is much better as well as your mood.
If you have negativity around you it will either cause you to work harder on what you are trying to do, or it will make you quit just to please others, or so that you don't have to listen to them anymore.
Having support is so important as well as having your own cheering section. It can help ensure that you build a successful business and that you can spend the time needed to make it successful.
You can concentrate better and will probably have less self-doubt about what you are doing. Support will be a huge boost to your confidence.
With no support and having others criticize you is never a good thing to begin with. If you are having to deal with it and have no one to stand by you, then that makes it so much harder on you.
A support system means that know matter what you are trying to do in life, you have others there to cheer you on and to help you reach that goal.
They may even give you solutions on how to improve, or suggest an easier way to go about it. They are there to help you when you have a bad day.
Compliments on your hard work go a long way as well. We know what we are doing is for a good reason, knowing it is appreciated makes us really push through to be successful.
I am here if you need a support system. This community will help you as well. Don't be afraid to count on us. You do not have to do it alone.
Please leave your comments on who your support system is and how it has benefited you. If you do not have a support system, please let me know. I am here for you.
Wishing you the best in all you do

Susan
Aww, thank you Susan. That was really heart warming.
I think you almost left me speechless and that isn't very easy to do : )
i owe this community as I wouldn't be here, or be able to help others, if it weren't for them.
Members like you make it so easy to want to help others and be there for them.
I appreciate you very much.

Happy Anniversary and thanks for a wonderful post!
I’m new, and have already been awed by the amount of support available at all times and the positive outlook of everyone here.
It is quite a comfort for one who new to this type of business.
I’ll look forward to seeing more of your posts! Wishing you much success.
Kyle Ann
Thank you very much Kyle Ann and I am glad you are having a great experience here.
Kyle and Carson knew what they were doing when they designed a community like this.
We will always be here for you my friend.

My support system is here within this community. Thank you guys and gals. My husband thinks I'm involved in a scam and that I'm wasting money. That's one reason I want to reach my financial goals. I want to see him backtrack that I'm NOT wasting my time or our money. My daughter is supportive but she is half a world away on the mission field. So I get my support and atta girls from the WA community.
I have to be my own support and keep myself thinking positive from day to day. I love to read success stories and progress stories here within the community. You have no idea how uplifting and positive your stories and progress reports are to the rest of us who are truckin slowly along. Thank you. -shirley
Shirley,
You are one of the ones I had in mind when I was thinking about writing this post.
I have read some of your post and have talked with you in PM as well.
I think you are one of the strongest women I know. You stay with it and work toward your goals regardless and I admire that.
That is a true sign of dedication and belief in yourself. If you ever need an atta girl, just let me know. You deserve a lot of them : )
Wishing you the best in all you do

Great Post LeeAnn. I applaud this vibrant community for the help I got. I surely count on you too.
OMG thank you my friend. It is beautiful.
Awesome talent and creativity there.
Thank you for your blessing as well. It is the grace of God that I have such a great husband and family.
You are just as important to this community and are very appreciated as well.
I love helping and wouldn't know what to do if I couldn't continue to help others : )
I wish I was able to save the card. i love it.
Thank you very much.
Lee Ann
Thank you Lee Ann, Elaine and have been helped so by community as we new nothing about using a computer like this. We both used them but, just for work and the internet not in the same ball park. We wouldn’t be this far without all of you.
Isn't it awesome?
I came here a complete beginner as well.
Between the training, the community and my family, I have come a long way in such a short time.
i know you are helping others when you can as well. You both are doing a great job. it is always a pleasure to see you.
Wishing you both the best in all you do
Lee Ann
great post! thanks for sharing... support systems are so vital. not having one outside of WA is especially hard, I know..... having people to connect with here on WA has been a life saver! they help motivate when nobody else does and encourage when necessary..... even if it is one friend who gets it, support takes a load of stress off!
have a wonderful day,
Corey
You are so right Corey.
This community is truly amazing at being there to help others.
As you said , having support is vital. being able to get it from this community is definitely a blessing.
Wishing you the best in all you do

Hey Lee Ann,
Wow, I absolutely enjoyed reading this post. Thank you!
Happy Blessed Anniversary!
Having a support system is extremely important and WA is definitely the best in the world for this. Not only have Kyle, Carson, and Jay, being here for us, their SiteSupport (OMG, I have stories of how helpful and patient they are), and their entire team who we don't see help us!
It's individual members (Ambassador and non-ambassadors) who go all out to help us here.
I have had a ton of help here and asked over 100 questions...I am forever grateful to them (you know who you are...) and yes Lee Ann that includes you of course.
I have a young lady, a Mother, who today read my review and took the time to give me constructive feedback. I struggled on this for almost a month now... finally I feel at peace and know exactly what I must do. Thank you Grace!!
My support system really does not come from family members. I have one friend who understands why I do this and is supportive that way.
Thank you Lee Ann for all your help and so glad you wrote this!!
Thank you to everyone who helped me and continue to help me!
Monica
Well, I am glad you are here Monica!!
OMG Monica, I am sorry to hear about your support system.
We are fortunate to have you here. You are a sweet, kind and knowledgeable young lady who I am honored to know and follow.
And YES, I too have had to rely on Kyle, Carson,Jay and SiteSupport many times. And SiteSupport is always on it as long as it is in their control. Even if it isn't they work hard to get it resolved.
I kind of feel as though I should have included them in this. Oops
But my main objective was to let those who don't have support at home know that they have it here.
Feedback is always a good thing to receive. It allows us to see how others see out site and lets us improve it accordingly.
it is tough to swallow sometimes unless they are just rude about it.
I look at it like they are really helping us to better our business : )
Especially when we are new, it helps a lot.
All of us who like helping others will be your support system my friend : )
Wishing you the best in everything you do
Lee Ann
Hey Jessica,
I'm truly blessed to have you here.
Have an awesome Sunday!!
Monica
Hi Lee Ann,
Awesome! Thank you... I am blessed by having you in my life and everyone here in WA. You are making me blush with your kind words.
I know you were thinking of Kyle, Carson, Jay and the team behind the scenes when you wrote this.
I can't get over the confidence I am getting here... it grows and grows.
Ya, the feedback is great... I love the hardcore constructive feedbacks. I know when they say it... deep down inside, I know it's true and I do something about it once I figure out how to solve it, lol!! Takes me a while to figure things out but feels darn good when I do get it right after getting more help.
It's awesome getting to know you and so many others here.
Thank you Lee Ann for being one of my special support system and friend.
And I wish you much success and happiness and many more anniversary celebrations. My husband has been gone for 26 years now.
Monica
Thank you Monica! I feel the same about you!
