I'm an Ambassador!
The WA algorithm gods have spoken...
Yep, I had to use this little cutie again to express my joy!
So, confession time: I was aiming for #35...
When I hit Top 200, I had my eye on #35...Top 100, my eye was still on #35...Top 50...yep...#35. Why #35? First, I've always liked odd numbers over even numbers. Second, I figured that should I slip a few notches, it would till give me enough cushion to stay in the Top 50....sorry, if you were expecting something more profound, folks. I never, ever had a desire to reach Ambassador...never!
So, I'm about to say something that really annoys me when I hear it and read it: If I can do it, you can do it too!!! UGH!!! Just typing that made me wince...
My original title for my post was going to be:
"I made Ambassador! I know very little, so don't ask!" or something to that effect...I think it's just too many characters.
So, here's what I am not or don't engage in:
An expert in the ways of online marketing. In all honesty, what I don't know still overwhelms me at times.
Techie...nope!
Live Chat...that still gives me the willies. Every now and then, I take a glance, but I make sure that it's just a quick glance, or else I may go blind...
This is who I am or what I feel:
Forever grateful! I have no doubt that GOD has a specific plan for me, and that I am on the right path! Granted, I may be taking baby steps, sometimes I'm just dragging along, but I'm moving forward!
I'm in love...with this community!!! Now and forever! I have adopted a Papa, a Big Brother, Da Beast, Twin, Soul Sistah, M'lady, Professor X and countless others (just in case you haven't noticed, I love nicknames).
Each post, bio or question asked and answered has inspired, motivated and challenged me, moved me to tears and bought a smile to my heart.
Strive to Thrive...that's not just a catching motto for me, it's what I believe down to the core of my being. Whether I walk this earth for an other 50 years or just 50 days, I want it to count!
I won't change what I've been doing, Whether or not I'm "deserving" of this title is up for debate. I relish any chance to serve others, so that will never change.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! For everyone who has ever read my very lengthy bio; for those who who first welcomed me into the community; for everyone who has every left me a comment or answered my question...thank you!
I would love to go out and celebrate but I have 2 appointments today, so that will have to wait a bit. Until we chat again, have a slice of cake on me, blow up a balloon just for fun, and always...
Strive to Thrive,
Veronica

Only saw your blog now, Veronica, but - and you know me by now, when I say something, I mean it - there isn't a more deserving member of the title than you!!
Your writing style and your wit are what fascinates me the most about you. And of course knowing your limitations is also what makes you a great sport.
Well done my lovely, and yes, of course I'm going to have a slice of your cake!!
Giulia
P. S. Yep, live chat is the only thing I can't get my head round here!!
You are always so sincere with your comments, Giulia. They definitely refresh my spirit! A big slice of cake for Giulia!!!
I actually got on Live Chat yesterday and answered a question...granted, somebody else had already given them an answer, but still, it was a big step for me! Maybe next month, I'll stay on for 2 minutes instead of just 30 seconds, lol!!! I mean, really...what language are those people speaking!
WOW! WHOOPEEDOOOOOO! YEEHAAAA!
Congratulations, m'Lady!
You are the best! I am so thrilled that I got to meet my Lil Sis!
You are such a sweetie and I am hoping your income is going to match your status.
I agree with all the comments here and hope that pushes you up a couple of notches.
Your Big Bro,
Michael.
WOW!!! That's Maganificant!!!
Time was much too short, but any time with my Big Bro is just....Fantastic!!!
What a special lady you are!
What took you so long?
Congrats and you are there because of how much this community LOVES you and what you contribute...
I knew the time was nigh!
Who did you biff out...I haven't looked yet lol
Keep doing what you do and you will stay there for ever!

Your mate from downunder! xx
Da Beast!!! Da Beast!!!
I remember early on, reading your "Message from the Universe" posts wishing I could be a part of your circle...inner circle, outer circle, it didn't matter!
You continue to inspire and challenge me, just by the man you are and how unrelenting you are in giving to the community.
Glad to be one of your cubs!!!
rofl
That's funny!
I see you have zoomed up even higher...
I'll have to bring out Da Beast guns in case yo get too close! lol
I have just driven a motor home across the desert from Adelaide to Perth and I'm just waiting to catch my flight home. It took 3 days distance 3000kms! So am catching up with all my emails and WA messages...there's 600 of them!
I'm pooped but it was fun to do!
Now...where did I put those guns????? rofl
WOW!!! That sounds exhausting but so much fun...driving the mobile home, not the guns!
I do NOT envy you the 600 emails....good luck with that.
No one in their right frame of mind would ever think of challenging Da Beast, so we're good!
Congratulations Veronica! You are a great person to be an Ambassador since you are so thoughtful and hard working and friendly! You have a great attitude (positive but absolutely not know-it-allish)!
So, I am thrilled for you. Keep that humble attitude and you will be great! I know you never planned to be an Ambassador anyway so you are just the right person for the job!
I count you as one of the women on this platform with such a great work ethic, Jessica so that means a lot to me. Thank you!
Veronica,
I just knew you would make it!
Congratulations to you, my great energy booster machine!
You deserves this title indeed - you are such a sunshine and a huge motivational factor to me and I believe to all people who knows you here at WA.
Just keep going, I looove your posts and your ahhhwwwwwsome comments.
A big celebration-hug to you from me,
:-D
Aww....my little cup of sunshine has arrived!!!
People like you make it easy to be joyful, Pernilla!
I told you that a while ago Veronica, You were and are an ambassador in my books so congrats well deserved. You don't need to have a world of information or have all the answers by just beeing yourself you have proved it.
Always a better way.
sending blessings your way
Linda
The insecurities are still there, so I really appreciate those words, Linda especially since you said it a while ago. Thank you!
Hello, Veronica
Congrats on your achievement. I too am not working towards ambassador but my rank just keeps dropping. Maybe I will see u there. :)
I wish u great success and keep up the good work. It has been a pleasure reading your blogs too.
I have taken your blog about cut & paste greetings to heart and switched to doing it personally, much better idea, thanks.

Hi Veronica,
I'm so happy for you!! You have earned every bit of this amazing appointment. I'm with you on believing this is a blessing that God has bestowed on you. Service to others, is a privilege, that I can see you don't take lightly, you enjoy every minute of it. I thank you for being here and taking us on your journey, I thank you for your friendship, I thank you for your open and honest attitude, it's a breath of fresh air!!
Ahhh....it really is an honor to have people like yourself, to read and comment on any of my posts. You're right, I truly love every minute of the interaction with everyone on this platform. I definitely got more than I bargained for...so much more!
Continued blessing to you, Mary!
Congratulations; Whether you think you deserve it or not; whether you are every going to able to help someone else or not; Whether I will ever have to ask a question that you can answer or not!
Be strong, be as creative as you can be and remember:
No matter how much I think I know, getting on the live chat room makes my head spin too.
Mickeyb
WOW!!! I love your inspiring words, Mickey! Thank you so much! So, I guess Live Chat should be the next dragon I slay!
Tread carefully. A couple of times I thought I would plunge in, it went way too fast for me! (not the topics or the answers needed, but the timing. By the time I formulated a response, they had moved on.)
That happened to me a couple of times, Mikey! My typing speed is shameful, so by the time I found the answer and was able to type it, 10 other topics were already in discussion! Hilarious! So yes, I will definitely tread carefully.

Wow!! Congratulations!! I finally got around to reading this. It is great. You are deserving of the title. For how hard you work to read and comment on as many as you can. I am like you. I never wanted to be Ambassador because I didn't know enough; but that's not all it's about.
I have my notifications turned off most of the time now and I miss everyone. :( I think I was down to 20 some but now I'm up to 82. :( I never seem to have enough time to get everything done. Also, I get virtually nothing done the days I keep Bella. But I do laugh a lot and get really full of love and joy!! She is so adorable!!
You are a simply Adorable Ambassador!!
Love ya!! Xoxoxo
Jeannie
Awww...M'lady!!!
I wonder if feeling overwhelmed will ever disappear!!! I read DaveSW's post "10 Mistakes Affiliate Marketers Make" and it still seems as if there's so much I need to tweak! Reading posts and leaving comments allows me to calm down a bit when I feel like screaming!
It's always a pleasure to see M'lady grace us with her pressence!
