My Life Changes Tomorrow!
Tomorrow I start my new job. I will be out of the house, working for 6 hours a day (plus travel of course), and I will have to be really disciplined with my time as I want to continue building my site and going through the training.
This has become necessary as at this point in time, the family needs a steady income in order to survive financially. We have student loans for university to pay for two children, and the third child still to get there! I've been freelancing for 9 months, and on WA since the end of January. I've learned so much and come so far, I don't regret one moment of it...I'm a little sad that I will have less time to spend online. Unfortunately, at least for me, the income is not sustainable yet, but I aim to get there in time.
Plans for the Future
I do want to continue here - this place gives me joy! I can't describe the satisfaction I get when I finish a module, or manage to improve my website in one or another way - it's addictive! This is what I shall do for ME because I like doing it. This is what I am doing as a long-term plan for a healthy future for my family. I shall need to be focused so I don't just end up dropping it.
No complaining from me, as I must surely count my blessings! So many people are unemployed and can't find work, and I am blessed not only with a job, but a GOOD one! This will enable me to actually make a difference (it's in the education sector which I am passionate about, one reason I love this platform!) It's important for me to do meaningful work and help people, and I am getting to do that. I also get to afford to continue my premium membership, and also, hopefully soon to take out a yearly membership!
So if I seem a little scarce for a while, that is why, until I find my feet with my new schedule. I know that many other people here have jobs and are successfully building their futures at WA in their own time. That shall be me.
Stay blessed everyone, and wishing you all the best!

Wishing you much success with your new job. Many here maintain multiple avenues of revenue, there is nothing wrong with that.
This is a testament to your character and shows you will do what is needed to help support your family.
In time you will find a true balance with all things to keep where you want to be.
Many blessings to you.
This is understandable, and I hope that you can balance everything and still remain active a bit here too...It is not much different for me, I have a tough time carving out time for WA as I would like...Making it work though, and I hope you can too! Cheers! Dave : )
