How I changed my life from being miserably employed to happily unemployed
Published on November 17, 2003 By Blitzace In Welcome
Hi my name is Jo, last year about August time I was coming to a turning point in my life, I had been a graphic designer in a printers for 5 years and felt like life was passing me by and I still hadn't found my 'thing'. At the grand old age of 32 I decided that I would search on the internet for a home based business, not expecting to come up with anything but 'buy this' and 'earn $$$ here' blah, blah, blah.

I came across a site called 60 Minute Money which I have to say looked very American and I was hugely sceptical that any good could come of it, but kept reading. It made good sense and although not entirely convinced, sent an e-mail off to the owners of the site not really expecting an answer. To my surprise one came back from a lady in West Yorkshire called Lorraine, she sounded very nice and I decided to trust my optimistic nature and send for the info package. The CD-Rom arrived and I couldn't wait to watch it, what it described to me made so much sense, what I had long been convinced of myself about how working for someone was never going to fulfill my need for success or financial freedom.

I was then contacted by Lorraine by phone and we had a long conversation about the business and I decided to give it a go. That was 14 months ago, and what can I say, I jacked in my job 2 months after starting with 60 Minute Money and I now am full time self employed. I have never been so fulfilled and challenged in my life, it was what I had been waiting for. I earn over £2000+ per month (twice as much as previous profession!)

I now speak to lots of people interested in working for themselves and the biggest realisation this has given me is that not all of them are prepared to go that extra mile as I believe working for yourself takes a special sort of motivation, a 'no matter what' type attitude.

I help lots of people now, with training, help and advice and I love what I do as I have an international business, I have also travelled to 4 different countries in the last year just doing what I love. What a life, life is good now and it was all down to having a bit of faith and going with my gut instinct.

Let me know what you think.
