A step in the right direction
My heart broke when my 6-year-old tearfully asked if I was going to work again that morning. I work a gruelling 12 hours shift, and being the youngest of 6, she has been crying relentlessly, begging me not to go to work. This really tore at my heart and I was at a loss as what to do. Even though I'd already joined Wealthy Affiliates, I was still not making the time nor putting 100% commitment and dedication to do what I know I needed to do.
After a long introspection and timely talks with all of my children, I finally decided to dedicate 2 fixed days to Wealthy Affiliates but I was still pondering about the monthly cost and how I was going to manage, having now decided to go part time at work.
And then came the Black Friday offer!. It was a lot of money! A Lump sum that I didn't have but unlike a lot of other stuff, I was not able to pay in installment. This was a major opportunity for me, but the setback was that I was not getting paid until a week after the sale. What was I going to do? I did not want to miss this big opportunity. I always try to find the positive in any situation, hence my WA user name, so how can I turn this setback into a positive experience? I asked myself.
I was always taught to ask any question.There were only two answers 1) YES and 2) NO. There is no shame in asking and hearing the word NO! At least I tried. So, I sent Kyle a private message politely asking/begging him to extend the offer until my pay date. I was ecstatic when he agreed.
Now that I've decided to be 100% committed, I'm determined to be successful. I'm also excited to continue to be part of a very helpful, great community. I've already written some fabulous content that I am just waiting to post on my website. All that is left for me now to do is to enjoy my very big step in the right direction because I'm awesome

I think many of us are in the same boat, the fact that we are living in a generation where we all work...so where we work from becomes more and more important if we want to spend time with our families.
I have been fortunate to be able to experience being home with my daughter and it is a beautiful thing, many others are following the same suit within the internet space. It is definitely something that is worth striving for and definitely something that you are more than capable of achieving through effort.
100% commitment to hard work and effort within your own business in 2016 and beautiful things can and will happen. A community of help here for you every step of the way.
Thanks for your words of encouragement. I really appreciate it
