7 Years of Success Stories 2010 - 2017
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This is of course not a complete list (there are probably tons more) and it seems like the older posts before 2010 have been archived somewhere, so we can't access those anymore.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!

Wow very impressive indeed it just comes to show that if one diligently apply what we are taught here at WA, success will be sure to follow.
Congratulations on all your great achievements and may you go from strength to strength.......you are a great role model.
Thank's for sharing and take care.
Johan.
How wonderful that you took the time to compile this to help others (and yourself) maintain the motivation to keep going. When the going gets tough ... WA members keep going!
Thank you for this!
All the best
Gillian
