I currently reside on the Gold Coast of Australia, in a tiny suburb by the name of Mermaid Beach. It resembles a big country town and is a sunny, pleasant area to live in. It's not big enough for a person to get too caught up that they forget about everyday blessings, but not too small that you lose the perks of living in a relatively populated area.
We now have a baby on the way. A surprise that has brought us closer together. And as I was sitting here, watching my pregnant partner having a nap on the couch, I was suddenly overcome by an immense feeling of gratitude, that I am lucky enough to live the life I have built around me. I don't have to go to the office or a work site anymore, trading my days away to put food on the table, I let my internet businesses do that for me.
I get up when my body tells me its time and go for a surf in the ocean, which is a 2 minute walk from my front door. Then, when I've had enough (usually when my arms can take no more paddling) I'll go and buy a latte from the cafe up the road, come home and spend an hour or two on my websites, writing articles like this one, to make the websites work a little better each day. This guarantees that tomorrow I still won't have to go to the office.
Then around lunch time, the postman will ride by. This always fills me with excitement as he often delivers the checks that make the website business so rewarding. I really am lucky.
And I know why I am lucky too. Its because I learned the skills required to sell products and services on the internet. Goodness knows I can't sell in the physical world, I don't have thick enough skin for the constant rejection. But I can sell on the internet.
The most fundamental reason for my ability to become successful in this kind of work is the fact that I studied and came to acquire the techniques and skills needed for robust internet marketing, the ability to turn a website into a veritable cash machine. I settled for nothing short of the best when choosing where to learn and thanks to that I never fail to seize opportunities to grow and become better. Ultimately, complacency needs to be completely alien to the world of internet marketing!
So no, I just can't understand why people complain about the jobs that they hate, yet do nothing to change their skill sets, or enhance their opportunities to find different work, or turn the things they love into a career, or bring their art into their working lives. All it takes is a little deliberate planning a decent amount of commitment, and a little bit of hard work to see it through. Ahh, that's it, work. I do see now. Its like how Thomas Edison said it.
