8 Weeks into my WA journey

Hi Wamily
I trust you are all well today and enjoying your weekend.
Please don't tell anybody (LOL!!) but I finally figured out where to start blogging. Yes, I know I could have asked somebody but I only realized recently that posting on my website and blogging on the platform is two different things. Believe it or not I am a granny, a young one! This is the first blog I am writing. You are never too old to learn and do things for the first time. I firmly believe in doing things that push you out of your comfort zone, within reason that is! No bungee jumping for me, thank you!
The truth is I don't really like writing, so blogging hasn't been something that I naturally gravitated towards, neither do I have too much appreciation for social media, I prefer eye contact with people.
It is time for a mind shift, whether I like it or not the world has been heading that way for a long time and I have to adapt. We live on a farm and Covid has pushed me to start appreciating the internet and connecting online. I am discovering that you definitely can connect online and it is hugely beneficial.

I am starting a new career, doing coaching and affiliate marketing and learning new online skills, you never stop learning as technology keeps changing.
Technology doesn't come naturally to me, all you really have to know is where to click when! I am learning, as you have probably realized I am trying to connect many dots here in WA, 8 weeks into my journey.
But it is all okay! I am so grateful to Kyle and Carson for the structured step by step training and the support from all of you. A big heartfelt thank you from me. I love the culture in WA, it resonates with me and I appreciate the caring we experience. The world is so in need of a caring environment.
The bottom line of my message is sharing with you the trials and tribulations of a newbie! I am even starting to enjoy writing and the reason is there is a big difference between formal writing and conversational writing, thank goodness! Doing fundraising I had to write with as few a word as possible, say as much as possible and then have 3 seconds to get somebody's attention. The 3 seconds to get attention still applies but at least I can use words freely.
The photo was taken on the farm where we live, kitchen with a view! The Karoo is a semi arid region, central South Africa and the sunsets are awesome.
Enough said about me, thank you for reading and I hope you got something from it.
Have a wonderful day
Marelise
