Please Stay on the Path
Staying on the Path
This particular saying could mean many things to different people for example to stay on a path to keep people off of property that they should not go on as in trespassing.For others as myself staying on the path means creativity for working and how to accomplish goals for life.
When I think of this it brings to mind of when I was younger and the older generation telling us to stay on the straight and narrow path meaning never get into trouble and do right by others.
Growing up I was the oldest of four children and was always helping my mother around the house or taking care of the younger ones.
This instilled in me a desire growing up to always help people whenever needed, whether it be with work helping them fix a house, clean, babysit, lend an ear, or with some advice.
Helping others has always given me great pleasure and a sense of worth as a person; when people take this away from someone who finds this very rewarding they should be ashamed.
Helping at WA
Helping everyone I can here at Wealthy Affiliates that I can has given me the greatest rewards not only to be able to help but making of friends that I would not have if not for WA.This platform was founded and brought up at least so I thought on the pay if forward basis; so all the knowledge gained to date should be passed onto who ever needs this to succeed.
Please correct me if I am wrong but I do not think that I have ever treated anyone here with disrespect or tried to humiliate them in any way.
Thanks to all the help I have received during my three and one-half months with WA I have been able to set up and I am doing very well with five websites.
Four of them are in the Site Health is Awesome with two of them being ranked in Google so far hoping that the others are not going to be far behind.
Referrals
I did receive my very first referral on October 13, 2018, not sure which website or if it came from my Facebook Business post but this is also a great honor.
Although, they are only a free member this is still to me a great accomplishment!
Inexperienced
I still consider myself a newbie here at WA even though I put in 12 to 18 hours every day doing whatever needs to be done.I keep up with posting on all my sites, give site feedback, site comments, welcome new people and give them a follow, answer questions, read and comment on blogs, and used to interact on Live Chat for a couple hours or more per day.
The more experienced members have told me I am learning quickly and doing well; but as of late just not feeling this way.
Understandable that we do not see eye to eye with everyone in this world and I am not one to back down if I know that I am right. But I do not deserve to be disrespected for that.
In Closing
This to me is a business platform and everyone should be treated with respect and when we are asked a question then to answer it truthfully to the best of our knowledge.If we do not know the answer then honestly state this fact letting people know that they need to either wait for someone who can answer the question or possibly look elsewhere for an answer.
Encouragement to all members should be a no brainer but I have witnessed so much negativity coming from others on so many topics and I have no clue why people want to act in such a manner.
Upbringing plays a part in how we treat others this is very true my father would always tell us: "If you have nothing nice to say then say nothing at all." Good advice I would say :)
My rant is now finished everyone please have a wonderful morning, afternoon, evening, or goodnight and sweet dreams :)
Thank you all for stopping by and reading.

Susan, I am following you and I really enjoy your writing. I am one of four kids too, I appreciate how many positive traits you got from being such a great helper for your mother and your siblings growing up, that you continue to use now helping others at WA.

I was the eldest child and heard some of the identical pieces of advice you mentioned!
You are working exceptionally hard and I certainly hope you haven’t experienced any disrespect here. I have had differing opinions than others but never any disrespect.
Thanks for sharing,

KyleAnn,
Thank you very much for commenting on my post :)
And unfortunately one person of this wonderful
community found it appropriate when I ask for
an explanation gave me a reply in Live Chat that
I found very disrespectful because I trying paying
it forward and helping as many as I can.
This will pass in time I have the power of
forgiveness in my heart.
Have a wonderful day/night :)

Susan, I like what you wrote. Like you, I am the oldest of four children. I haven't really experienced any disrespect. I read comments from other members, and I see nothing negative from them.

I read your post again. I have never seen you disrespect anyone, or not offered help to anyone who needs it. If anyone disrespects you, tell Site Support that you feel abused, and let them deal with it.
Got your back

Chuck,
Thank you I was brought up to respect everyone especially
my elders. This is just something when you are taught from
a young child is instilled that you do automatically. Being the
oldest of 4 children I was always helping around the house
with everything so I guess I found that helping people was a
great feeling personally.
Thank you for the wonderful support you give it is so appreciated.
Susan :)
Thank you for your comment, Susan. I really appreciate it.
