Our whole lives are governed by our jobs. Think about it. Our jobs control where we live, what we can afford to buy, what time we get up in the morning, what time we come home, how much we get paid, etc. It is no wonder we can even think for ourselves and probably as we get holder, thinking gets harder to do.

I made a decision a few years back, after a number of downsizings and going through a lot of emotional, difficult times, that I did not want to work for anybody anymore. I did some research on home-based businesses and decided that I would prefer to just work for myself.

I am a member of a home-based business, and yes it is hard to do because often it feels like you are working two full-time jobs, but the reason it is so difficult is because I have never owned a business before and I am learning. Part of the process of learning new things, you also make mistakes and even fail, but I am determined this is what I want.

Four years have gone by and I have started making some money, my businesses are growing. I forgot to mention, I also own real estate. I own 6 properties. Once I make a decision to change things in my life, I go all the way.

My health has been getting worse over the years because of stress at my job. I am a software engineer. If I don’t get out of the job situation soon, I can see my health getting worse. I see within the next year or two to be able to walk away from my career and spend more time at home. My skills as a business woman have become quite developed over the years.

Thank you for letting me share….
