Don't Call Me a Chicken! -James Dean.

Today's Quote:
"Do the Thing You Fear Most and the Death of Fear is Certain." - Mark Twain


I can't get over how many people have been layed off and/or had to change jobs in the last year. In fact, statistics say that the average American will go through at least 10+ job changes over the course of their lifetime.

The Good News is that unemployment in the U.S. is below 5% which, economists say, is FULL-EMPLOYMENT. This means that everyone who wants a job and can work, has a job or can get a job.

The BAD NEWS:

1. The jobs available may not be the jobs that you want

2. The available jobs may not pay what you want to earn

3. The available jobs may have a work schedule that conflicts with your life and family

4. The available jobs have no guarantee of job security. NONE.

Ok, so most people don't start their own business because:

  • they don't know what business they want to start
  • they don't think that they will get the money want to earn
  • they think that they time needed to start their own business will interfere with their time
  • and they don't think that they will have any kind of job security doing it.

Does this make sense? If so, let me ask you...

What's the FREAKING difference between doing your own thing and working for someone else?

In fact, I will argue that owning your own thing:

Gives you the freedom to CHOOSE where you want to work and what field you work at
Gives you the freedom of unlimited potential to earn anything you want instead of earning what some bone-head (whose job it is to pay you as little as he/she can get away with) thinks you are worth
Gives you the freedom to work at your own pace and every hour worked is a 100% investment in your freedom, wealth, and knowledge
Promotes your financial security by giving you a crash course in management, marketing, accounting, creativity, finance, etc..... Ask any Human Resource Director and they will tell you that someone who ran their own business is usually more capable, interesting, accomplished and visionary than the typical clock-puncher. HANDS DOWN.

So, I ask again, "What are you waiting for?" Start your business now! You have more to lose by not doing it than by doing it and "failing." In fact, I will say that you can't fail. You may lose a bit of money, but you will gain more experience, knowledge and perspective in trying to start and run your own business than you will from any 4-year college. GO FOR IT!

Need a place to start? Start by selling information, like I do. Get the i-profit package and give it a whirl. That's how I got started and now I make as much as $100-200 each day just from that one package with only an hour each day to maintain the business. Who couldn't use an extra $40-60,ooo a year?

Go for it!
