I think many people who respond to home based business opportunities are actually looking for a j.o.b. and not looking to be in business for themselves.
Here’s a few of the differences (in my opinion)….
A home based job and those looking for one:
- Something you do for someone else, and they dictate your time, method of completion and compensation
- This person usually wants to take no monetary risk and wants a guarantee that they will see a "return on investment" (ROI) within a matter of weeks

Lately I’ve been coming across many articles that cite statistics. Here are some more interesting ones from
Success Magazine:
- 72% of Americans dream of starting their own business
- 57% of Americans are passionate enough about a hobby to turn it into a business
- 40% Want to love what they do
- 24% want to be their own boss
- 21% want to have a more flexible schedule
- 15% want to spend more time with family
Do you dream of being your own boss? Are you already? What did it take to motivate you to take the plunge? I’d love to hear from you…

"Take control of your destiny or someone else will"

Last week was so busy I forgot to mention I would be in Las Vegas for a Wealth Masters Int’l conference. It’s a 4 day event filled to the brim with education on Health, Wealth, and Wisdom . The WMI Co-Founders, Kip Herriage and Karl Bessey will be kicking off the event with a line up of global economists, banking and stock experts, health & fitness experts, as well as some legendary motivational speakers. There will be a number of surprise speakers as well.
Also in the group will be Carbon Copy Pro Co-Founders, Jay Kubassek and Aaron Parkinson . Mike Dillard of Magnetic Sponsoring will be in attendance, and top industry earners Andrew Cass, Michael Force , amongst numerous others. There will be opportunities for networking and getting to know my colleagues better, which is always great.
How could you not have some fun too while in Vegas?! There must be half a dozen shows to choose from at each hotel! The great part is since I’m here on business (and it’s MY business - not someone else’s), I can write off much of the trip.
Please leave a comment and let me know if you are able to combine the two and take advantage of tax benefits…
Until next time, J.

Being effective as individuals and organizations is no longer an option— survival in today’s world requires a new mindset, a new skill set and a new habit . continue reading »
