Is that the sun peeking through?

I thought I would share some thoughts, having read some great blogs from other members. I have to say, I have been overwhelmed by the support offered since joing WA, although I am beginning to see that if I read every blog and answer every comment I won't actually get any work done!

I'm not a naturally social person - I'm not anti-social and I've spent the last 20 years of my life helping people in physical and emotional pain. But I don't really do the whole chatty social thing very much, which means after many years of working alone I didn't have anyone to talk to about my work - until now. And I have to say what a revelation it is and what a great bunch of people you all are!

Perhaps there are many of you who are also a little naturally reserved or introverted to one degree or another? Finding a safe community in which we can present ourselves without the baggage that others might know about us, enables us to share our thoughts, from a new perspective. It alllows us to reinvent ourselves in a neutral and welcoming environment, which in so doing, gives us the space to view ourselves in a different way, without the baggage from many yesterdays. This in turn, will enable us to find a more positive way forward and inspire us to take action on our dreams and aspirations.

I'm quite happy in my own company, with my own thoughts, but it's not really contributing much is it? And furthermore, I find when I have a problem that needs solving, even though I spend my life solving other people's problems - I struggle to solve my own.

But here - at WA all I need to do is post a live chat, or ask the community a question and several people come back with answers and suggestions. Instead of struggling with the same issue for hours, days or weeks, it's solved there and then and I can get on with something far more productive.

Looking out my window it is a cold but sunny day in the South of England today, so it seems the sun did peek through after all!

Wishing you all a great day x

Hi. Love your post. For you to share such personal information is enlightening for me - as I feel quite similar to you. I am very particular whom I talk to in this real world of ours and because where I work I am on my own so I actually do not see or talk to any one. (Probably not good for my social life - Hmm don't have one...ha..ha) I don't like crowds - loud noise - spontaneous visits to my home. Probably sound quite sad and boring - but it's called Anxiety problems. So I am grateful to be part of this community - where I guess they don't know you personally but know you tech - wise. I feel privileged to be a part of. I often prefer animals to humans - but hey - that's my buzz. So far I have learnt things I would never have even thought of thinking about - so on that note - I'm proud of myself. The sun has shone on me and I'm glad to see it's peeking through for you too. All the best on your journey ahead.
Thank You Kindly for Sharing.

Thanks Anita, you definitely sound quite similar to me. Good luck to us both. :)

Wealthy Affiliate has a wonderful community that is willing to help once you ask. I have never met such helpful people that are willing to help even though they are busy themselves seeking to establish their online presence and to build a successful business. I am happy that I am a part of this amazing community. Thanks so much for sharing all the best to you and have a good day.
