We ventured into the online space to free ourselves from the constraints of a conventional lifestyle. We refused to sacrifice time with our children, just to pay bills & have a few weeks holiday each year. Realizing life is short, we decided to embrace the online space & we haven`t looked back. We became our own bosses, scheduling work around life & enjoying the freedom to work from anywhere in th

e world. Society has ingrained in us the belief, that we have to prioritize earning money in exchange for our freedom. But we have discovered a different path & it`s become our passion & our purpose to help other`s find it too. There is a whole new world of freedom, choices & abundance that lies outside the confines of a traditional 9-5 & anyone can have it.

I just came across this in a post from someone who runs a successful online business & it struck a chord with me.

Money isn’t the goal - freedom & choices are the goal. Everyone wants freedom - it’s the reason they go to work. But working all year just to get 4 weeks of freedom is just ridiculous.

True freedom is being able to work a few hours a day & spend the rest of your time doing whatever you like. Being able to work from anywhere in the world & having no cap on how much you can earn.

It sounds like a pipe dream, but it’s not. It’s 100% possible with your own online business & anyone can do it. All you have to do is believe in yourself & make a start.

But most people don’t & it’s sad.

They daydream about not having to go to work & being able to lead a life of leisure, but they don’t believe in themself, so they don’t make a start. They don`t even try.

Here’s s the thing - mindset is everything.

You underestimate what you’re capable of when you’re not happy in life. You underestimate what you are capable of when you feel trapped in a job that you hate.

But it`s not the job you’re trapped by - it’s your own limited thinking. You’re trapped by self-doubt & self-doubt is the biggest dream killer.

Imagine if you just decided that you ARE good enough & that you deserve to have what you want in life. Imagine the pride of knowing that you’re setting an example for your kids by chasing something better for you & your family.

Mindset is everything.

“Whether you think you can or think you can’t - you’re right".

There are so many reasons for starting an online business & everyone has their own. Mine is family.

I was nearly 43 when my first boy Hodge was born & nearly 47 when we had Luke.

Being off work through injury since 2016, I’ve been blessed to have spent quality time with them every single day since they were born.

I’ll admit that I had plenty of stress in that time too though, because we had a few very tough years financially & it literally worried me sick. But looking back, I wouldn’t change a thing.

We all need money because life is expensive & you can’t do much without it. But time is so much more important because once you lose it - you can’t get it back.

Something I’d never even considered until I started a family.

Now, time is all I think about & to be able to work from home without sacrificing any time with them at all is just priceless.

Cooked Hodge steak, snags, hash browns & eggs for dinner last night.
As we sat down to eat he says -

“Dad, I have 2 things on my mind right now - 1 good thing & 1 bad thing. The good thing is, I like when we eat breakfast at dinner time - It makes my brain happy. The bad thing is - I’ve just about had a guts full of Luke. He’s so bloody annoying today” 🤣🤣🤣

Got no work at all done today, or yesterday, or the day before. Instead I’ve spent all my time playing cars, watching movies, building forts and eating wooden icy poles with my two main men.

Working from home is the best thing anyone could do when you have a young family - but it isn’t always easy. Sometimes your kids just won’t let you be & all you can do is go with the flow.

When this happens, you often begin to think you’re not getting anywhere in your business & doubts start to creep in about whether or not you’re on the right path, or even if you can do it or not.

While it’s obviously important to be in the right niche, be affiliated with the right company & to have quality products or services to sell - the most important thing in your business is your WHY.

Why you’re doing what you do. Why you’re stepping out of your comfort zone - stepping away from what you know, to learn a new set of skills & do something completely different.

You try your hardest to be positive as much as you can, but you’ll always have days, weeks or sometimes longer where you’ll just want to throw the towel in & give up.

At times like this, the strength & power of your why is what pulls you through. Without it, you will just give up & move onto the next new shiny opportunity that comes up…..& guess what? You’ll end up throwing that in too.

These rat bags are my why, so there’s no chance I’ll be giving up, no matter how long it takes or how many ups & downs I have on the way. It’s not going to happen overnight, but it’s definitely going to happen👍

“I’m so proud of me dad”
Hodge after coming first in the year 1 boy’s running race at his school sports carnival. You couldn’t get the smile off his face. He was excited, proud & surprised, all at the same time because he came fifth in the same race last year.
I was just as happy being there to watch him. As soon as he finished he was looking for mum & dad to make sure we’d witnessed the win. We are so blessed to have never missed out on any of these events.

I got this in an email today from a group that I subscribe to called Dads helping Dads, so I thought I`d share it. Our kids are our top priority & the main reason that we decided to pursue a career online.

Life is a lottery & you just never know when your number is going to come up.

My Dad died one week after he turned 49 & it`s always on my mind, as I didn`t start a family until I was 43. I turned 49 myself two weeks ago & my two boys are now aged 6 & 2 years old.

Who knows how long I have with them? I want to spend as much time as possible enjoying life with them & I get to to exactly that, by spending my days working from home - not working away.
