The Amazing Journey

While I can’t know everything, I do know with certainty that every human being is in pursuit of happiness. Mundane life seems to offer so many “obstacles” that ultimately take on the form of reasons or excuses to give up pursuit of happiness or to make no attempt to pursue it in the first place. You are undeniably in pursuit of happiness! Without knowing you personally, I know you want so many things out of your life which you may not have achieved…yet.

It takes a simple change in thinking to make your dream a reality. If you’ve started any kind of residual income business, it’s because you had the audacity to believe that you could shape your destiny on your terms. Imagine that! With millions of people still unemployed, it’ll take some time for a full economic recovery. In the mean time, it’s an excellent opportunity to explore a business that can give you the freedom to earn money without “selling” your personal time.

While I’m no expert on socio-economic trends, I predict that people of the not-too-distant future will, for the most part, have some level of home income business as part of their income “portfolio”. Unless you’re someone with thousands of dollars in disposable cash to buy stock in a company, you’ll start some form of residual income business on the internet. I see a time when almost everyone earns some level of passive income in addition to or in place of the income earned through traditional employment.

Because the internet is still relatively new, it’ll take some time until my prediction becomes common fact. The economic crisis that started in 2008, and still affects millions today, was also a blessing in disguise for many people. The person I was 2 years ago would never imagine typing these words. For me, it was a gradual process. I admit that I started my residual income business out of a lack of options. Today, running my own business online is the only option that interests me. Why would I want to work for someone now? In fact, the only way I’ll consider earning money through a company is by becoming a shareholder of that company.

The initial steps to starting my internet business were the most difficult. I had very little knowledge of what it takes to build a successful, income-generating business online and I was not sure what I would sell online that I could discuss passionately. I paid a business consultant a considerable fee to teach me what I needed to know to become a successful internet marketer. Every step I took toward building my internet business was also a step way outside of my comfort zone. Quite frankly, I wasn’t absolutely certain that I was doing the right thing. No matter how much I analyzed this new idea, there was some residue of skepticism on my part.

To quote Benjamin Disraeli: "The great secret of success in life is for a man to be ready when his opportunity comes". With that in mind, I dove into my business without ever looking back. A simple change in my thinking and behavior changed my life in ways that I couldn’t anticipate 2 years ago. I find within myself a willingness to assume certain risks that can be explained only by a renewed self confidence. Ironically, I’m far more fearful of the status quo than I am of the unknown. The opposite was true of me 2 years ago! It’s been quite a journey since then, and I’m continuing to grow and learn. May this journey never end!
