Income-earning choices impact mother-child involvement



I was always told that having a baby would change me forever. I was thrilled during my one-year maternity leave when I could cherish every moment watching my child grow and thrive. I took so many pictures and videos and created home DVDs, thinking that this was the best time of my life. Were tearful good-byes going to be part of our future relationship? I wanted to keep her by my side forever and this was more important that certain luxuries I was used to having.


My resolve to stay home with my baby came after our difficult birth and lengthy hospital stay. I wanted to make it up to her by allowing her by weaning her naturally, giving her extra health advantages. I was able to take our sweet baby along with me as I did some contract work for companies. I even took he with me to meetings for an up-and-coming MLM company, but unfortunately the company folded after a year. I signed up for an online business, but later learned that it only sold one product to only USA citizens. When our daughter turned two, Daddy started watching her during my 3-hour shifts from home doing customer satisfaction surveys.


I started to discover that important decisions such as breastfeeding, co-sleeping, potty training, education and even family size are all impacted by my earning decisions. I found that my daughter was sensitive to other kids' behaviours so I decided that I would homeschool her when the time came. After reading "Reading Magic" by Mem Fox, I was motivated to borrow extensively from the library and I read to her before her nap and before bedtime. I wanted her to be able to start reading early.


I didn't have a choice about having to earn money, but I could choose options that allowed me to work from home. I found that earning income alleviated my husband's stress and provided extra luxuries for our family. When we both earn money in ways that are comfortable, our appreciation for one other grows. The best thing we can do for our children is to be happy and to have a healthy marriage. Our children need both of us. I'm so thankful to my husband that he has allowed me to branch out in my online business and avoid re-entering the workforce. I can help you to have more time with your children too!

I Now Have Time For My Daughter Stella, Do You Have Time For Your Family?

I have time to spend with my daughter Stella after I started my own Home Based Business. I would like to help you accomplish the same! I know how frustrating it can be when you first start your home based business.

I tried a few different programs with little success. I was tired of all the "Hype" and promises of these worthless business platforms.

I made my mistake by not educating myself when I first got involved in this industry.

- Jumping from one program to the next builds NO momentum.

- Where do I focus my time?

- What are top producers doing to earn 5&6 figures per month?

I had a successful career in the night club industry and was trying to replace my income from that so I could have a profitable home based business. I did not want to drive to and from work, I wanted to work online from home or anywhere so I could travel with Stella and enjoy all the world has to offer. And best of all I wanted to be my own boss :)

I want to offer you some advice...

- Know what you want from this industry, have a plan of what you are going to do to make this possible. Example: (To pay off my debt and have financial freedom.)
- Stick to that plan and do whatever it takes to overcome your fears.
- With the plan you make know exactly why you are working so hard to learn these skills and remind yourself everyday. (Example: I want to walk in BMW and purchase the new 7 series, that's why I work hard everyday.) Be specific, and also give yourself a time frame.

Focus your time on learning 1 new skill, master it and move on to master other skills as well. Get training from industry leaders. It does matter if you are new to the industry or a pro. Training gives you an advantage in the Home Based Business industry.

What you want can be extremely powerful when you apply yourself.

Good Luck

How to Multiply the Chances of Success in Your Home Business

When you start a Home Business or when you decide to finally make a success of your Home Business you probably have to do a number of things differently from the way you have been accustomed to doing them. Here are a few:

- the way you focus on your goals
- the way you prioritize business and pleasure
- the way you manage your time
- the way you allocate your money
- the way you market your business

I speak from experience when I say, learning through trial and error, listening to someone close to you, or an 'upline' is a long, slow, expensive and often futile way to proceed. In short, do not do that. There is now another way, and having discovered it, I am keen to share the good news. If you look around the Internet you will find a huge amount of teaching that deals with the points above, and just about any other point that needs your attention. The important thing is: the teaching does not come from just anybody; it comes directly from people who

- have faced those same issues
- have thought them through,
- have put solutions in place
- have refined their solutions
- have built enormous success

They are sharing their knowledge with anyone who wishes to learn and they are doing it for free. This deserves a great deal of attention: You can learn how to avoid mistakes and how to maximise your success without the waste of time, energy and money that comes with doing it your way or learning on the job. The internet is often criticized for the amount of irresponsible junk that is posted on it, but there is also the other side, information from people who are both honest and generous, and who are willing to help you - for free.

Go and look for them, today, and you will be amazed what you can find. Study the offerings of several established leaders, check out their businesses and when you decide which one is right for you, swallow his or his system whole. Become a student, learn, get your questions answered and, most importantly, act on the advice you get. You will not look back!
