Every now and again I used to get this desire to leave my job, my boss and sit on the beach in Tahiti owning my own business that did not tie me down. I know people that can do that, as I continued to go to the office trading 40 hours a week for a measly paycheck. I began to understand that if I wanted the life that I saw others living I needed to figure out what they were doing and start doing it. That is when I started my search for just the right business that would allow me the freedom and income potential that I desired.
I want to tell you a short story that actually helped me begin to think about what I was doing wrong in my career. I was visiting the beach resort at Phuket, Thailand when someone I had met invited me to go out to his boat for the day. We got in a small rubber boat which took us out to his 72 foot double masted schooner! I was shocked, I began to think about who could possibly afford such a boat. After spending the day on the boat barbecuing fish and enjoying the sun, I made up my mind to learn how people make real money.
I realized that as long as I worked for someone else I was only working to make them rich. I had to own my own business. I found that the easiest way to own a business, yet not be married to it, was to enter into the stay at home work industry. Only this avenue would give me the freedom to travel all over the world and still run my business from anywhere. This avenue would also allow me to enter in without laying out too much capital. The best part about the stay at home work industry is that many people have built huge businesses, earning large paychecks and achieving the financial and personal freedom they were looking for.
