Wisdom

The older I get, I know the wiser I am becoming. But then, I thought what exactly is wisdom and how do I explain wisdom? So, I looked up the definition of wisdom:“Wisdom is the ability to think and act using knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense and insight.In short, wisdom is a disposition to find the truth coupled with an optimum judgment as to what actions should be taken.Wisdom and knowledge have different meanings, but are often portrayed as synonyms. This is corrected

A New Day

Two months ago, my husband and I moved into our new home. It was a lot of packing and then, unpacking. I felt overwhelmed with cardboard boxes. This took me away from my website, writing blogs and continuing with the WA training program. After all the unpacking and the furniture arranged to our satisfaction, I just couldn't get motivated again and even considered quitting WA. Then, I felt lost and didn't know what to do because my website's niche is one of my passions and I do appreciate this w

Thanks for the new, improved Profile Page

Thanks to Kyle and Carson for the new, improved Profile Page for everyone. It looks amazing! I had joined many other online programs and many do NOT take the time and effort to make improvements for the members. There is one program I had joined a few years ago, and that program looked like it had not been updated since it first went online, back in the 1990s. Way back in the last century. The back office was so difficult to navigate and it was weird to try to deal with a very out-of-date onlin

The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.

My husband and I lived in an efficiency apartment for the past 1 ½ years, in a not so desirable part of town. We needed to save money on rent to pay off medical bills and also, we wanted to save for a nice home.Earlier this month, we purchased a home in a nice, clean and new retirement community. Last weekend, we moved all our belonging to our new home and yesterday, we finished cleaning our apartment.As my husband cleaned the stove, (I was so grateful he was willing to clean the fridge

When to Find the Time for Writing

One of the WA community members, Geoff, wrote a WA blog about his experience in google rankings and how to get good rankings.https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/stadnykgeoff/blog/google-ranking-personal-experience-on-how-it-worksAs Geoff writes: The moral of the story is that the most important key in good ranking is to write our best.

My mistakes: WP Media and Compress Photos

I posted this as a reply to someone's WA blog but I feel this is important to share as my own WA blog. Here at Wealthy Affiliate, it is OK to make mistakes. And here at WA, it is a very safe place to ask 'stupid' questions, in my experience I have always been treated with respect and always have received helpful answers.Well, I made a mistake on my website and glad I did! And because I was brave enough to ask a 'stupid' question to the WA community, I discovered why I made the mistake and how

Target Audience is YOU!

My target audience is the WA community!I am progressing in the Training, right now on Course 3, (Yeah!) and have written several blogs on my website. This has been very exciting, I love this course as it is so well written and easy to follow. But there are challenges. . .As we members are being instructed to write more blogs for our websites, one of the challenges, at least for me, is coming up with an idea for a blog.And with that in mind, I thought about who is my target audience?As I am just

WP Website Themes

I spend a long time picking a theme for my WP website. But I don't really understand the differences. I picked my theme because I wanted the 'header photo' to be taller than wide. In other words, I didn't want the header to be across the top of the website. For my header photo, I wanted to show a vase of flowers and so I needed height for my photo. But, I realized that either I can't figure out or it doesn't have the feature to archive my blog posts. The posts just scroll down and I would lik

Finished Course 2 - Worth it!

When I finished Course 1, it was like I had build the foundation of a house. I couldn't see any walls going up and definitely not the framework for the roof. But the foundation is very important. No point building a nice home, if the foundation is on shifting sand or too close to the edge of a cliff. No point building a nice home, if it is not made with good quality materials. With finishing Course 1, I was able to build a solid and stable foundation with high quality materials, and with the he
