Be an action taker, not an order taker.
You've made a life changing decision when you joined Wealthy Affiliate as well as upgrading to premium status.
You're tired of taking orders and earning the bare minimum.
When you upgraded to premium status, you're investing into yourself and like anything else in life. There is a risk!
You risk failing, but that totally depends on you. You can only fail, if you allow yourself to fail.
I understand that most people prefer to stay safe and not risk their time and money on something that is not guaranteed to succeed.
However, did you know you're actually risking a lot more by not taking action to build multiple streams of income?
What happens if you get laid off? What happens if your company decides to shut down? Guess what, you're out of luck because that was your only income source.
This is what you want to do... take action when an opportunity presents itself. Use the opportunity to create multiple income streams. The goal is to be able to earn more than what you spend.
Affiliate marketing allows you to work at home as well as the choice of working for any relevant affiliate programs. If one goes down, you have others to fall back on.
Tip: Don't rely on one affiliate program! Make sure you have a few others generating money just in case.
The training here at Wealthy Affiliate will provide you with the fundamentals and the foundations to your online business. Take advantage and always have an open mind to learn.
I sincerely wish you all great success and another prosperous year (:
Kind regards,
Eric

That has been my focus for the last few years as well Eric. I have begun buying distressed properties and getting them up and running with renters in them. Trying to locate income streams without a boss has been the focus. That is what is so appealing to me about affiliate marketing. My own hours and I determine what gets done and when. Funny talk about taking orders, bar tending was the last gig I had as an employee, took way too many orders. On the flip side it is what got me to the point where I was looking for opportunities like this. Excited to watch your progress and learn from those of you that have been at this for a while. Thanks for the follow and best of luck.

Thanks, Eric. It sounds like you are saying that we need to take responsibility for ourselves. That would include taking action to protect ourselves and to generate an income we can be happy with.
Hi! Eric,
Absolutely right to be self-motivated to receive training and follow instructions on schedule and on deadline. May I ask what theme did you use to build your website? It looks nice and well functioning.
Much appreciated,
James
Hey James,
My website consist of a few things. I use thrive architect for the home page and I use Ad-Sense: Premium WordPress Blog Theme.
I'm thinking about reducing the amount of AdSense and focus more on opt-in forms.

In my view action emanates from initiative something originating from you whereas for order you depend on external influence to determine whether you take action or not.
Hello QAVAVO,
You are absolutely right! Wealthy affiliate is in a sense the order, but it takes your action to make it work.
