To Lead is to Serve

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

A month ago I finished a secure leadership/teaching position bringing in six figures. That hasn't always been the case. Most of my life my income has been $000000 as a Volunteer Teacher or minimal before I qualified as a teacher in my late thirties.

I thought, - What shall I do now? Look for another position or do something online? I love using all my Apple devices could I work from home using them? So I made a little search. Found an affiliate company that looked very smart. Bought into it a bit but began to have doubts. Did another search and found an article by Kyle that confirmed my suspicions.

The first affiliate company I found had very high commissions if you could afford the investment but at what cost. I have many friends in what people call the 'third world' and if they saw me affiliated with such they would jump straight in - only to have all their dreams shattered because they don't have the $$$ or go into debt to try. So I said 'No'.

If you get the chance read Kyle's Facebook post [July 26] - "High Ticket Affiliate Marketing always puts the customer last". I just found it on the day I became a Premium member of Wealthy Affiliate.

In the Islands there is a motto on the Solomon Island emblem - 'To lead is to serve'. I see Kyle and Carson doing that with Wealthy Affiliate - I hope to continue that legacy.
