I Work From Home…. Yahoo!

I work from home and count my blessings each day. It’s particularly helpful at times such as this morning when I woke up with a headache…. I didn’t have to call "my boss" and say I would be late. I was able to get up and start work after it went away. Which ties in with yesterdays post, and what resonated with me about the title…

  • One of my decisions to work from home was to eliminate a 1 1/2 hour commute each way
  • Another reason was to work from where, when and with whom I wanted (like minded individuals, not whiners)
  • Also, it is true that we can write our own paycheck (If you don’t put in the effort- you don’t get paid. But when you do, it can come back to you tenfold)
  • I have been able to "donate" one morning each week driving for Meals on Wheels, my way of beginning to give back to the community
  • During my life I have been divorced, widowed, and a single parent struggling to make ends meet. You might think because of that I’m driven for the money, but that’s not my "why". I am passionate about working with other women so they don’t have to "struggle" like I did. Through coaching and financial education products they are taught the difference between good and bad debt, and how to build for the future. Many start just wanting the education, then the supplemental income, and many are helping to teach others as well now.

You might say it’s a bit like "pay it forward"…… and one of the side benefits is that yes, the money part happens as well!
