A Little Perspective For You
At this point in my life, I am not totally excited about my job. I am grateful for it, I like it, but I don’t love it any more. While I enjoy a level of flexibility, my job feels more like the law of diminishing returns; the more I put in, the less I get out of it.
Do you feel that way about your job sometimes? Or, is it more like my cartoon buddy here?
Feel free to share your story in the comment section of my site. I’d love to hear from you.
Now, regardless of whether we can stand the thought of going back to our jobs, for some of us, we have to because there may not be that many choices available, and our escape hatch is not yet in sight.
In other words, we can’t just up and quit because of responsibilities and for some there may not be the financial support to do so. That’s understandable.
For me I just don’t want to be revising my resume at this point. That could be a chore in itself. So I took the opportunity to make my own escape hatch, doing something that I love… writing.
Writing to me does not feel like a “job”. I look forward to it, to challenge myself to create something new, and to provide information to help others do the same thing I’m doing; turning my passion into a profit.
The choice I made allows me to write about what I want, when I want. So basically, I have freedom, flexibility and a self-imposed deadline. I am not waiting for someone to hire me, nor am I waiting for a submitted article to be published. These days, I ‘publish’ with just a click of my mouse. YES!!
Okay, I need to get a life.
So What Exactly Did I Do?
Well, I decided to have my own online business. Say what??? Yes I did.
I always wanted to have my own business. Was I thinking of an online business? Not at all. But when I came across Wealthy Affiliate, opportunities knocked, and I just had to open the door to the potentials.
How can anyone say no to an opportunity to earn extra income and realize some of your dreams a bit earlier than anticipated? Can you? Do tell.
With my online business, apart from having an opportunity to create something new, I get to to test myself as well, since writing content for my website is a very important factor in this line of business.
Yes there are freelance writing jobs out there… but doing it this way, I don’t have to wait for my article to be accepted to get paid. Moreover, I don’t have to engage in networking to make sure someone sees my work. That could be tedious. Know what I mean? Who needs the extra stress?
I think the question you are probably asking is how do I make money doing this. Am I right?
Simple really, affiliate marketing.
I know what you’re thinking.
Can anyone really make money in affiliate marketing anymore? Absolutely, and tons of people are doing just that every single day.
Here’s The 411 (Information)
Businesses are interested in making money and every single individual who has access to the internet is a potential customer for them. Have you any idea how many people that is? Just the majority of people in the entire world!! Ka-ching! Ka-ching!
So, by being a part of an affiliate program, you help these businesses get the word out on their products or services, by simply doing reviews and/or having their link on your website.
You are like their online advertiser and these businesses pay you a commission once someone purchases their product or service via that link that’s on your website.
Additionally, affiliate marketing offers a number of opportunities from which to make money online, and is considered a very lucrative area as far as online business goes and quite a number of people are making six figure incomes doing this. Why not you as well?
It’s a simple process and you too can learn how to make money from affiliate marketing.

Hi Vanessa. Thanks for this post. There is nothing better than your passion being your career!!!
Thanks for visiting Randy and I totally agree with you there. We should all be so blessed to do what we love as our career.
Hi Vanessa,
If I was not already with Wealthy Affiliate I would be joining. You give very good arguments as to why a person should start thinking about their own future instead of sticking to a job that they no longer love doing.
I don’t know off hand what the world population is but even people in the third world countries are now getting online, so there are billions of customers out there.
Thank you for this informative and very interesting post.
Best wishes.
Lis
Hi Lis
Thanks for dropping by and spending some time. You are so right, there are quite a number of customers out there and anyone can start doing this once they’ve got the right training. For me, I just don’t see myself doing my current job for the rest of my life, so I started my own online business, happy dance 🙂 which was actually the furthest thing from my mind. But like I shared in the post, the opportunity that Wealthy Affiliate offers is ripe with so much potential and that was the better choice for me, and for you as well I see.
I would encourage anyone looking to make that change but they aren’t quite sure what it should be or they want to get started online, Wealthy Affiliate is the way to go. The beauty of internet is that, a hobby or a passion for something, can become a very profitable online business.
Awesome article on an online education program I can fully vouch for! I learned my trade at WA several years ago and I have remained a member ever since. You’re correct in saying you must target a passion – it makes the whole process a lot more simpler.
Thanks for sharing – excellent read 🙂

Hi Chris,
Thanks for stopping by. Targeting a passion really makes it easier, because you are doing something that you like and that’s encouraging and motivating, as opposed to doing something you don’t like, like going to a job you are not so crazy about. This is my little escape hatch that I look forward to. It’s not just about building my own online business, but also having the opportunity to interact with some really great people within the Wealthy Affiliate (WA) community.
What is also cool about this, is that it gives me a level flexibility, so that I can get it done in my spare time. In a nutshell, I am doing something I love in my spare time. Sounds like a hobby to me but I am building my business. 🙂 How can I go wrong with that?
What a great post! This is very motivating and gives me a better sense of what I want to do with my life. Not only do you have fun doing your passion as a career but you also are great at it because it’s your passion! I will be looking forward to more post from you in the future!

Hi Kyle
I am happy to know that you found the post helpful and motivating. The cool thing with the internet is that even if you have more than one interest, you can easily capitalize on those as well. I agree, you will be great at it because it is something that you love doing and I am working on the next post we speak. 🙂
Affiliate marketing surrounding us all over in our lives, so might as well share the success and if you do what you love, you never have to work. I think Wealthy Affiliate is the best online community where people can learn the how-tos of making money while working with something you love. Cheers to that! 🙂
Hi magus
Thanks for the visit. I think it makes a huge difference doing something that you love, especially if you want to do something online. It helps to keep you motivated and you’re more focused, as opposed to doing something you don’t like. The internet provides so many niches and that’s why it’s easy to get started on something that you love and share that knowledge with someone else.
