Breaking Free Of Your Dead-end Job

People always tell me how they wish they could work at home and spend more quality time with their family, but they just don’t know how to go about doing it. It’s not easy for Moms and Dads who rely on a “dead-end” job(s) to keep the family afloat, let alone think about cutting the ropes that secure their family to a stable income.

I really understand if you find yourself so dependent on your job that you end up in a vicious cycle, unable to explore other opportunities. Although most of the obstacles you face when you consider being your own boss are usually just your imagination acting up as you move beyond your comfort zone, there ARE real problems that you will face :

• You have no money.
  Starting a business takes money whether its a couple hundred bucks or tens of thousands, you need capital.
• You have no time.
  How could you? The boss expects you to be on-the-job ON TIME and for most folks that means leaving the house before sunrise and if you’re lucky, you get home before your kids are in bed!
• You have no experience.
  You need to know what you’re doing if you want to succeed in your own business. Unfortunately, most of us work at a job that is totally boring and unrelated to our passion in life.

These are real problems. They’re not problems that can be solved by simply wishing them away or buying yourself an e-book that guarantees you financial freedom. The solutions to these problems will take time and conscious effort on your part, but if you’re really serious about breaking free of your “dead end job”, you will overcome them bit by bit, day by day.

There are many, many people I know who would be good examples for me to write about, but I’ll use the best case study I know - myself. You can name any fear, any insecurity, any mental obstacle that you’re facing as you consider being your own boss and I will be able to emphatize with you. I went through it ALL because I was once the world’s worst scaredy-cat. Nothing would budge me from my comfort zone. Nothing. But life always has surprises in store for us. Join me in my next few posts as we discover solutions to the 3 main obstacles to breaking free of your dead-end job.
