Work At Home Freedom

I'm going to take a break from the usual "make money online" post and, instead of telling you HOW to earn, I'm going to tell you WHY you should be making money online working from home. It's quite simple: when you work at home you earn more than just money...you earn your FREEDOM.

I know that sounds rather dramatic, but it's very true, and it should be important to you. The economy is being flushed down the drain. Workers are being laid off everywhere. Even big car companies that have been around for more than a century, are now faced with financial disaster. There is no longer any such thing as job security. Your employment could be taken away tomorrow or next week...at ANY time!

When you work from home you are your own boss, so you can't get fired! Plus, you can take a break whenever you want to. No more early mornings scraping ice off the car in the middle of a storm to go to work. No more traffic jams when commuting back and forth. Never have to deal with an annoying co-worker or supervisor. You never have to eat a quick "bag lunch" in 15 minutes because of a limited breaktime, or rush to get errands done during your lunchbreak.

Perhaps most importantly is the fact that you never have to go to work again when you feel sick or have the flu and your whole body aches in pain. Yesterday I felt exactly like that. I had a headache and I was tired and I thought I was catching a cold, so what did I do? I dropped EVERYTHING I was doing and went to the beach...and slept. All afternoon just laying in the sand. Then in the evening I stopped at the canteen and had a nice plate of fish n' chips. It was good! By the time I got home again I felt much better.

You don't have to live near the ocean like I do to take advantage of this work at home freedom. You can go anywhere you want to, whenever you want to. When you don't feel well, you can just stay in bed all day watching TV, if you want to.

But this freedom to be your own boss working from home does have a cost. No, it's not money. It's discipline. You have to know when NOT to be lazy, and to be willing to work like a driven donkey most of the time. It's ironic because most people drawn toward the lure of working online do it because they ARE lazy and have bought into the myth that it's easy money when, in actual fact, it's probably about the hardest way to earn a living there is. It's NOT suitable for lazy people at all!

That's why most people fail online. It's not because they CAN'T make money, or they think it's impossible, but because they aren't willing to work at it. I work my ass off online, sometimes 16 hour days, building sites, placing links, promoting for traffic, working on new ideas, etc, etc...and sometimes I'm exhausted, but I do it because it affords me the freedom NOT to do it on days when I just don't feel like it.

I earn a living doing this from home, and it's worth it to me to not have to be part of the daily grind that everyone else has to deal with at work. I choose to work hard now, so that I don't have to later. You can as well. You can do anything you set your mind to do, if you want it badly enough. Think about it, for your own freedom from the rat race....
