Have
you missed the turnoff that leads to your dream of working
at home?
Wouldn't
that be disappointing? No one likes to think that they have
wasted their chance, missed their opportunity. But that's
exactly what happens to many. Sometimes
you can become so focused on a single-minded purpose that
you miss the opportunity when it presents itself. Maybe it
wasn't the goal that you started out with, but that doesn't
mean that it's not the right path to follow. Years
ago, I left my career to stay at home with my kids. I remember
the months after I had made up my mind… I was obsessed
with my dream of becoming a stay-at-home mom. It was all I
could think about: How would we make it happen? Could we afford
it? I dreamed of watching my girls play from our porch, cooking
dinner every night, having the time to work in their classrooms,
go to their sporting events. Long
story short, we did it. It wasn't easy; I quit my job, we
moved to a different area, my husband had to transfer. But
we did it. It
was just as I had dreamed it would be… for a while.
But it didn't take long for my restless nature to crash the
party. I soon realized that I needed professional interaction.
I also needed to be able to contribute to the household income,
as much for personal fulfillment as out of financial necessity.
So,
I decided that I should try to find a job that I could do
from home. I'd have the best of both worlds. I knew that I
had valuable skills and experience. It never occurred to me
to start a business- I'd never owned a business before so
it never crossed my mind. I just wanted a job.
Of
course, once I started looking around I realized that finding
a job that I could do from home was not going to be easy.
Then
I came across an ad for an opportunity to promote an educational
product. I would earn commissions on my own sales as well
as the sales made by any others that I invited to join. That's
right, it was a Multi Level Marketing opportunity, not that
I really knew what that was at the time. It looked pretty
easy, so I gave it a try. What
ended up happening was that I earned enough money to start
my own business. I plunged every penny that I made into building
the business that I run today, 2Work-At-Home.com.
