Humility
Humility is something I'm learning here at WA.
In certain parts of our lessons we are required to discuss and interact with each other on things mainly having to do with our websites. Sometimes we have to ask each other for assistance. That is so very hard to do when you're not accustomed to doing it. I am humbled every time by my need to ask my WA family to help me. I realize that whatever help is given, it is given with love and understanding and the realization that we have all been there. We all have to go through it, so don't feel so bad about doing it. Yet, I am unable, at this point, to do some of these things without feeling like I'm begging.
The WA family is not causing that feeling, it is my own problem.
That's what it is! I am humbled and yet somehow I feel as though I'm begging. I must remove that feeling from myself as I go forth within WA.
I have only been here for 6 weeks but I feel such love and understanding and commitment from all those who are here.
I need some of my older brothers and sisters (those who have been here longer - no matter the age) to reach out and tell me to get over myself.
I have been in the world for a long time, on my own, responsible for all that was. Understanding that those around me, except for in the early days when I was in the Army, could be of no assistance to me. I have spent all these years being what was lovingly referred to as a "Strack WAC". It meant that I was always well put together and very rarely ever showed any cracks in my armor.
I do not know if Kyle and Carson intended this for us, but the way they have set this platform and program up requires humility and to be humbled in the most positive of ways. Thank you guys and the team for maintaining a standard built on love.
To my WA family, I say let's keep on keeping on!
I read about one of us WA'ers who after one year and 5 months made a $1000 a month goal? Ahead of schedule!
And there was another one of us who reached the hundred dollar a day mark!
I made $16.99, so far! I say these things to tell the world that WA works.
For the 1st time online, I am bringing in revenue and looking forward to it growing!
There is no place like WA.

Sylvia, I can relate to your feelings. In my career, I was always the "go to" guy, the one who always had the answers. I came to WA about 10 weeks ago, and I'm a Newbie! I've realized just how little I know about the internet, internet marketing, even my own computer. I've spent a lot of time just trying to find out how to get from Point A to Point B.
I've suffered through the humiliation (?) of needing to ask "I Dee Ten Tee" questions. That's spelled ":ID10T"
No one has laughed at me (yet). All the WA members just help me, very graciously I might add.
P.S. You've earned $16.99 more than I have, so, You Go, Girl!
Sylvia, I can understand your feeling humbled for sure. I recently watched a video on the very topic of what is known as "Dysfunctional Independence". Basically a term deemed to those of us who tend to think we can do everything ourselves and not rely on or allow others to help.
It is a myth that there is such a thing as "Self-made success". Many will not agree with that but no one becomes successful "ALL" by themselves.
It is fine to be humble when appropriate.
None of us know it all. We all need help from time to time and you should feel better about asking for it. It makes my day when I can actually help someone and I think most of us here feel the same way. That's what this community is about here.
Congratulations on your $16.99!
Just keep up the good work. We are all here for you. I feel similar a lot of the time. I will definitely wear out all my options before asking for help. But I know when I do there is always a kind and caring person to help.
Well, online communication has a lot of advantages...but many drawbacs as well. I do understand your feelings and since. I havebeen teaching online, i realize how sensitive matter is. I am planning to create several blogs about it... I hope it will help...may be
I share your feelings Sylvia! Great post! Love it!
You do have the spirit. I'm not sure it originated here.

To give love you already know you get it back 1000 times back!

Sylvia..you don't need any of us to tell you anything...you're doing a fine job yourself! Congratulations on your success. I'm don't think the original intent of WA was for personal development but that is what happens here.
