Before I Can Quit My Job I Must Cover My Lifestyle Expenses

August 9th, 2009

Okay let me explain myself, this weekend has been a very miserable weekend for me because im trying to pull money out my ass, car breaks down kids need clothes, and Im trying to keep calm and pull thru. I will make it, but I had enough.

I’m tired of living paycheck to paycheck and working for other people. In fact today I had to sit down and come up with a plan.

If I want to quit my job, I have to cover my lifestyle expenses…so while I’m covering my lifestyle expenses, I will use my J.O.B check and expedite paying bills so I become debt free.

Im still working on the plan as we speak and im just about complete. I will let you know when I complete it.

Another Day of Failure or Did I?

April 19th, 2009

Andother day has gone by and it seemed like I have yet to make any progress to meeting my goal of quitting my job. Well it may seem like that but, in reality im slowly makes steps closer to that goal.

I sell products online and yesterday I sold 0, zilch, nadda….am i discouraged? No….why you ask, well because Im glad that im failing fast so I can learn from my mistakes. Plus im learning new things as I go which is a bonus.

A beast I’ve been trying to manage over the years is Google Adwords, I cant crack that safe to save my life (For newbies it’s not actually a safe but a way to advertise your business), but I think im getting more comfortable with it.

I will continue to post my progress as I go along :) Dont forget to bookmark this site and check back for updates.

Just When I Was About To Quit

April 16th, 2009

There I was…sitting there….about to quit again. Then I read an email that I received. It was a rather lengthy email but the main thing that stood out was a few lines…

“I know it’s hard…., I know it’s uncomfortable, but we are here to help. Keep on pushing and the success will follow”

I noticed over the years that I have quit many programs, and jumped from one program to the next program. 

After re-reading the email, I had a conversation with myself. I went something like this “Self, we have got to make a way out of this whole and to the top…we know that we can do it, we’re going to have to get out of our comfort zone and just DO IT.”

So I stayed….just when I was about to quit I changed my mind.

I had to find a way to make it work. I’m frustrated because im learning new things, and I’ve failed in the past, but if I want to quit my job, I have to adapt to the new changes, and challenges.

I will continue to post on how I feel about my comfort and the learning of new ideas I’m implementing.

Why I Wont Chase The Rainbow

February 8th, 2009

Well I really havent made that many posts this year. I had alot of personal issues going on but now that im having a little bit more time figure I would get back int o the grove of things.

chasing the rainbow

chasing the rainbow

 Todays post I will talk about how I quit chaing the rainbow. Let me explain. It seems that alot of products that are coming out seem to sell you the dream on thier salespage. thats fine and dandy, thats marketing but….of course everyone is asking the question:

What’s In It For Me?

This year I chose to quit chasing the rainbow, and I pretty much focus on just a few select people that I want to learn from. Nothing personal against some other marketers but I need to focus on a mastering a few things instead of being a guru of everything.  Another way of thinking about learing from everyone is…ok remember back in school where you could join the different clubs around the school…..well you wanted to follow everyone else, then you had the clubs that had your friends, or the cool people, the guyr or girls..etc. While its ok to join a club you couldnt join everything that was out there…and thats the only point I was tying to make.

Focus…focus…focus is what Im going to have to do if I want to quit my job.  I had some projects that I had going on, but I really cant go back to them bc I didnt complete them. *Shame on me, indeed*  That wont keep me from moving ahead.  So I figured I would start small and work my way up…and update you in the progress.

This month Goal. $40 (Shut it…if you think its low its a starting point)
Today is the 8th I have until the end of the month to make it happen. 

I will do it….. laters gotta go make this happen.
