Touching Base!

Well, I have been out of the WA loop again. The world and its many challenges threw another curve my direction and I had to hunker down and handle a couple of legal matters. One is in the hands of a judge now, the other is still looming, but I just wanted to reconnect here in my WA world.

Checking IN!

As always there are MANY new faces since beginning my brief hiatus. I have only been skimming along here being inundated in my personal world. If you are new to WA then I send you a hearty welcome! Whether a seasoned member or new I hope you will read on in this internal WA post for a word or two of encouragement.

A Learning Curve Meets A Life Curve Ball

If there is anything to be learned from my experiences it is this...You may have to step away from your work or lessons here for a bit, but you can step right back in and get back into the swing of things just by 'being present' again.

My encouragement to you is to most certainly keep up with your membership fee and stay tuned in as best you can. Do NOT quit because life has thrown a curve ball at you. You can hit that curve ball right out of park!

I really love what I have created with my website and from a post I recently composed on emergency preparedness (http://specialneedsadvocatepower.com/special-needs...) for families of special needs kids I found a marvelous local company who is reaching out to communities and the families of autistic children. They are http://www.firefightersvsautism.org/. I am beginning to engage with them over a couple of things that should be mutually beneficial for our business and outreach efforts. If you have a child on the autism 'spectrum' you most certainly should visit their site.

The reason they exist is because of their experience as firefighters. Wandering and childhood drowning have posed significant risks for autistic children. In Arizona, we have allot of swimming pools and drownings are horrible tragedies that happen every single summer! An absolutely sobering statistic is that 91% of drowning deaths in children are autistic kiddos. This is alarming and frightening and I want to get the 'word' out to families about this important subject. Heightening awareness is the first step in prevention! Then we have to take action, even as we must in this community and our lessons if we are to grow an internet marketing business.

So...

...today I am back in the saddle, doing research, and preparing to write a new blog post to my website specialneedsadvocatepower.com. I am convinced that as has been the experience of so many here, in time there will be the satisfaction of doing good work, completing the hard word of creating a business AND yes in time establishing an income too.

TOUCHING BASE!

Today...I just wanted to touch base with my Wealthy Affiliate community. I haven't left you. I have just been snowed under, in the middle of spring, and consumed with utter fatigue surrounding my family's legal matters. With all of it I just couldn't get my head up long enough to get some writing and studying done.

I hope you are all well and that you are keeping at this. We know in time it will reap results! One of the best results is this community! You will learn and grow and be supported as you strive to create your websites. Persevere! Yes indeed, persevere and produce and just don't give up!

May your day be filled with smiles! And don't forget to look up when you feel down. You simply cannot cry if you are physically looking up. Look up and smile!
