Hey everyone,

Whenever we feel discouraged or lazy, reading about success stories serve as a good source of motivation, so I decided to compile all the success stories I can find here in WA. This is of course not a complete list (there are probably tons more) and it seems like the older posts before 2010 have been archived somewhere, so we can't access those anymore.

Anyway, from my compilation I noticed a few things:

1) There are many free starter members who have attained successes

2) Members from non-English speaking countries are also making earnings

I think the 3 key factors to their success are:

1) Attitude - Willingness to learn is very important, and don't let failure hold you back

2) Hard work - Writing articles, creating images, doing research, all these are hard work and will require a lot of time and effort

3) Patience - It takes time for your site and all your posts to be indexed by google, it can take up to months, so we really need to be patient.

* Special update from 2017 *

From now onwards, I hope to compile a new list of success stories from members here whom I know personally.

Here's a post from a friend whom I have the honour of knowing here in WA and his hard work and positive attitude have paid off. Read his recent post and be inspired:

This is another friend here who has used her tenacity in her blogs, over and over again, and her patience has paid off:

Next come my incomplete list of success from existing members whom I may or may not have the pleasure of knowing:

Lastly, I just started out in Feb 2017, yes that's last month and I have already made my first sale. I am so looking forward to the day when I can be writing many success stories of my own, will definitely blog about it then.

Hope you are as motivated by these stories as I am. Let's keep moving forward!
