Instantly Hooked !
The idea of beginning a home business on the internet
began some five years ago when I first began surfing the net.
I had been forced on to a disability pension by years of
illness which made full time work impossible, and I faced a
sort of crossroads in my life.
I was considering a Creative Arts degree at university
where I hoped to pursue my poetry writing and become a part-
time student.
I had acquired my first computer and was in the process of
overcoming my technophobia !
Suddenly I stumbled on a web page offering untold wealth
from the comfort of my own home....
I was immediately hooked ! I was of a generation that
basically took for granted that employment meant going out
each day to a work place and being servile !
This was different....Sack the boss ! I immediately signed
up !!!
So began the journey into a brave new world of Free for Alls,
Spam, burning the midnight oil, and credit card commerce.
Work hard as I did, I was for some time naive enough to be
duped by the empty promises, the hype, the conning, and the
Big Shots !
Eventually I had to take time out to reflect, but what was
absolutely invaluable was the time I had spent working bit by bit
through this "Cyber jungle".
Then I learnt that even on the net Business is Business !!!
Through making mistakes I could grow - not only as a
marketer, but spiritually too.
My journey so far has been stimulating, never boring,
always challenging and increasingly Exciting !
I' m in this for the long term. This is not 'get rich quick'.
My business is a life investment. Patience and steady persistence
are my tools.
I work tonight in the quiet of my own home - suiting myself -
daily making new contacts across the world.
What primarily drives me is the immense satisfaction of self -
fullfillment as I evolve to becoming free and independent.
That is good for self esteem and like me my business grows -
one day at a time....
I invest my time in my business and in turn invest in others, so
that I too may invest in myself....
A very rewarding long term investment !
