It took me two weeks and two days to realize that affiliate marketing, with the help of Wealthy Affiliate, will be my journey for the entire year. Yay, I was able to decide before the end of the Black Friday deal! I'm so glad it didn't take me two years! : )

This delay had nothing to do with Wealthy Affiliate. In fact, without three factors that I had to consider (money, time, and goals), I would have done this on my first day here at WA.

For the past two weeks and two days, I've observed that there are three types of Wealthy Affiliate members. I would like to formally describe them in my own version of "Goldilocks."

1. Small Bear (Newbie)

This is the perfect term to describe my current WA status. Most of the things that I do here are new to me. How do I create my website? What's my niche? EWWW? Am I going to sell something ewww?

This is a humbling experience for someone who is regarded as knowledgeable in different aspects of life. People usually come to me for help, guidance, advice, stories, and jokes. ; ) However, I seem to be so ignorant when it comes to my questions on Live Chat. ;p

As a small bear, I learned that consecutive posts (Day 1, Day 2, etc.) is unattainable. I was so excited on my first day, but couldn't keep up on the following days.

People who read my first two posts might be thinking: "Day 1, Day 3, that's it? Is this skip counting?"

I'm in a cage. I couldn't help others even if I wanted to. I can't wait for the time to be either a Medium-sized Bear or a Large Bear, so that I could provide relevant answers to other WA members' questions.

Small Bears truly appreciate all the WA trainings because Kyle made them very easy to understand. The videos are our "honey." They are so addicting.

2. Medium-sized Bear (Knowledgeable and Experienced in Affiliate Marketing/Online Business)

Just right! I challenge myself and all the Small Bears here to grow and mature into a Medium-sized Bear within 6 months. Impossible? Too long? Just right? Medium-sized Bear, care to answer?

3. Large Bear (Obtains the highest level of knowledge, experience, and financial success)

Small and medium-sized bears' goal is to eventually become Large Bears.

Porridge, anyone? Large Bears teach us that time management, remarkable effort, patience, passion, and determination are the best ingredients of a delicious porridge.

How are Small Bears, Medium-zized Bears, and Large Bears at Wealthy Affiliate similar? All of them are caring, willing to help, friendly, honest, passionate, and committed to become successful in pursuing GOLDilocks.

Small Bear's Note:

It's a good feeling when people appreciate or praise me for the knowledge, assistance, ideas, solutions, and advice that I share with them. That's why I would like to thank and praise Kyle and Carson for sharing their field of expertise with me and all the Small Bears, Medium-sized Bears, and Large Bears here at Wealthy Affiliate. You and your team deserve appreciation and praise.

Special appreciation also goes to Ian (waian) who wrote a post about Wealthy Affiliate. I wouldn't be here if not for the detailed, informative, and honest review that he did about WA.

After reading about the three types of Wealthy Affiliate members, which one are you? Join the conversation!
