I went to the library today! What a wonderful place to be. All the books you could ever think of reading, and all the people happy, because people who read are generally happier. Even better than that, I checked out books pertaining to "Home Businesses", and such related topics. It's like everything that I've been thinking, someone was smart enough to write it all down, and categorize it. Scams, real opportunities, and the like is really a matter of perspective. But one thing I saw, I cannot help but repeat, Please forgive me if You wrote this, but; if you can earn minimum wage doing data input outside the home, why would you believe that you can make over 1400.00 dollars a day doing it part time from home? That hit the mark for me. Why do you think you can earn money mystery shopping, when the pay comes in the form of $10.00 or a reimbursement of your purchase, which has a ceiling? How do you think that you can make money enough to earn a beautiful house, sporty car, and lying on a beach with a portable computer, when you don't ever get to find out what the job is?
I thought to myself, I could have written each and every article that I read today. And I only read through the 1st 5 chapters.
I've seen it in the news, earn money from home, blah blah blah, I bought the course; it cost me $150.00 off my visa card, and the most I did was give my opinion on products I didn't even use. Maybe now it's different, but that road I will not go back down.
Been there, done that. Now, I blog. Notice what goes on in the world and write it down.
Today I paid $2.50 for a dozen eggs. It's time for me to purchase a chicken. I bought a loaf of bread for more than $1.25, can I also bake my own bread? Of course. Will it be enlightening? You bet. Can I also raise a pig or a cow in my back yard? Probably not, but becoming a vegetarian is not in my future.
The very good question is... What am I good at, and can I see myself doing it?
Am I prepared to work at home for real doing something I love rather than watching the idiot box all day?
Is it possible to manage my time, and proactively seek out my fortune?
These are all the best questions that require deep insight to know what I am going to spend the rest of my days doing. Maybe, like my son, I have my whole life ahead of me, and rather than consider my entire life a failure because I didn't accomplish my goals, I could continue to try and not give up until I succeed. That would sure make for a better ride through this thing called life than lying down, and wallowing in self pity.
I am going to continue to put forth my best foot, but another important point I want to make before I go... Unless I stand up for something, I will fall for anything. Time for me to be the best that I can be, and that means making My Something Better.
I have never finished a puzzle and missed pieces, much less finished one that had so much black in it, but since my granddaughters have moved in with me, I am undone, but not failed. I still Love that puzzle, Henry Lee Battle. Thank You for that!
