How to become a partner on Quora?

Quote, Teal, Lavender, SayingBelieve in the image of your dreams

What is Quora?

Quora is a great question and answer website.  If you are looking for answers to a question, you would just type in the question and you will get different answers from people on Quora. You can also answer questions and I have received some great advice from this website.

The thing that I enjoy is the fact that you do not have the judgment from people you know and you can ask a question anonymously if you care to.

A lot of people use Quora to boost their career by being active on Quora and if you have a blog, this platform would be great for you to get your name and your business out there. I spend a little time on Quora because I enjoy seeing some of the questions and answers.

How to become a partner on Quora?

I had no idea that you could become a partner on Quora until I got an invite.  Right now it is invite-only and I would say that the best way of getting invited is by answering questions on Quora and stay active and make sure that your spelling is on point!

There is money to be made but in the beginning, you will not make much money until you start asking questions that are popular without copying another person's questions.  If you copy or ask a question that is similar, it will get merged which means that you will not get paid for that question.

Quora is fun and I kinda make a game out of it because I have another blog where I answer questions, so this is great for me.  There are people who are in the program who make pretty good money.  The great thing!  You can ask as many questions that you want at this time.  I don't know whether that will change in the future or not. The program hasn't been around that long, so, it is in its new phases.

A lot of us who are bloggers are always looking for a way to supplement our incomes and this is just another way to accomplish this goal.
Will you get rich from being a partner on Quora?  No, you will not! But, you will be able to make money in addition to your main profession.

So, go to Quora and get busy and you too can be a part of their partner program.

Are your friends holding you back from success?


I had a very meaningful conversation with a family member, and we were talking about whether the people that are in your life or, you allow to be in your life, are holding you back from success.

This conversation really made me research this question and I found that this concept is really true.  Being a soft-hearted person can sometimes mean that you feel sorry for people who are going through a hard time and you want to lend your support.

 There is nothing wrong with doing this, but it can also open you up to people who decide that you are stupid because you just want to be their friend and not be judgmental.

I find that some women are so catty, and they think that you are supposed to be at their "beck and call."  We as friends are supposed to support each other, and be glad when one of our friends is experiencing a "win" in their lives.

Are your friends holding you back from success?

Yes, they could be, because of their negativity.  I am a loner by nature so many times my friends are loners too.  This year I will be evaluating each and every friendship that I have, to determine what changes I will make concerning friendships. To ensure that I continue on my journey to success.

I actually have one friend and she is so encouraging, and we encourage each other.  She is always there to give me tips that will help me do better in my life, and I really appreciate her caring nature.

Never have I seen this lady turn on me, or, try to undermine me in any way.

The signs that someone may be holding you back are:

  • They are not trying to improve their lives.
  • They always have a negative comment to say about you.
  • You will see them looking at you in a condescending manner when you look at them out the corner of your eye.
  • They try to prevent you from working on yourself or they try to tie your time up so you cannot work on yourself.
  • Some are always looking for a handout from you.
  • Some of them get mad when you cannot afford to buy them gifts during the holiday because you have to buy them for your own family.
  • If you mention that you want to go back to school or start a business, they tell you "you are too old!"
  • They want you to tell them all of your dreams and secrets.
  • They spend every dime that they have.

I didn't want to believe that all these facts were true but they are.  Sometimes you are better off without friends until the right one comes along and keep working on yourself to be greater.

You worked hard last year but you did not see any significant financial rewards yet.

Coins, Currency, Investment, Insurance

Hello everyone, I just wanted to stop in and chat with you all.  Many of us have worked very hard promoting ourselves and seeking out new business and we haven't seen any significant financial rewards yet.

I am right there with you all.  I did see some changes but not the financial increases that I wanted.  We cannot give up and we have to push through.

Join some Facebook groups related to your niche to get some inspiration and some guidance from people who are successful in their business.

Find some new ways to advertise your business.  I have many ideas up my sleeve and will also be stepping out of my comfort zone to promote myself.

Check out some online classified ads to promote yourself without going broke and make sure that you save all of your receipts for anything that you purchased relating to your business.

Please be willing to share the knowledge that you acquire, so others will be likely to share with you.
We are going to do great things this year and by this time next year, we will be on the fast track to success.
