Why Earn Money From Home?

Because being able to earn money from home is a great way to help you build YOUR Financial Future.


Did you know that more than 7 million people work from home using the internet as a way to make extra income?

Technology has brought in a new standard of conducting business. There has never been a better time to take advantage of the many business opportunities online then now.




However, in order to be able to earn money from home,  I have learnt that time is money and money is also time. What I mean by that is managing your time and money is extremely important towards the success of your business, and if you don’t know how to manage your time and money, your chances of succeeding are slim.


Understanding this opposite truth is one of the best understandings you can have when it comes to managing your time and money.


You see, all you have in life is the time.  From the moment you take your first breath, the clock starts ticking.  The sands of time starts to fall down the hourglass, and the mix of your life starts to burn down. As soon as we leave the nest we realize it takes money to buy food, clothes and shelter, then we start trading in some of our precious merchandise – our time – for money. The trouble is most people stay on this never-ending treadmill, continually trading in their time for money, therefore never having enough time, or money.


Wise people leverage their time. They look for ways to earn money not directly connected to their time – whether that’s building a business where you earn money on other people’s time and effort or spend a limited amount of your time creating products or services that can be sold with no extra investing of your time. Then they commit the money they earn, by investing their money to work for them, establishing more money and eventually a surplus. The surplus of money buys time freedom.


Here are some examples taken from the Success Magazine : What Achievers Read


Scenario #1

If you want to earn $150,000 per year, your time is worth $50 per hour if your work 50 weeks per year and 60 hours per week.  If you spend 12 hours per day working, how many of those hours are on tasks that don’t produce $50-an-hour outcomes? That’s where you can buy back time by hiring someone at $25 to do your $25-per-hour work, while you stay focused on your $50-an hour-work.  You immediately have  a margin of $25.


Scenario #2

If you want to earn $100,000 per year, your time is worth $33 per hour if your work 50 weeks per year and 60 hours per week.  If you spend 12 hours per day working, how many of those hours are on tasks that don’t produce $30-an-hour outcomes? That’s where you can buy back time by hiring someone at $15 to do your $15-per-hour work, while you stay focused on your $33-an hour-work.  You immediately have  a margin of $15.


Scenario #3

If you want to earn $50,000 per year, your time is worth $16 per hour if your work 50 weeks per year and 60 hours per week.  If you spend 12 hours per day working, how many of those hours are on tasks that don’t produce $16-an-hour outcomes? That’s where you can buy back time by hiring someone at $8 to do your $8-per-hour work, while you stay focused on your $16-an hour-work.  You immediately have  a margin of $8.


I think you get the idea now. You can now invest this money to buy back other time obligations: cleaning your house, mowing your lawn, washing your car, tracking your bills, maintaining your blog,etc. Then you can spend your time doing things that bring your richer, fuller and more joyous experiences ….certainly more joyous than scrubbing your toilets.


If you know what you are good at, just think of what kind of market you can create within your own area of influence and residence. Starting out this way is a perfect way to try your hand out at running your own home business and as time passes, you can gradually make it bigger and more profitable.


Let me leave you the greatest secret of the rich;

“Estimate the value of your time, and then apply your money to purchase it back – at wholesale.”

You Grow – We Grow – A Personal Development Plan That Works

February 5th, 2010 by monschl No comments »

A personal development plan is a road map of your self growth journey. It is basically a goal setting exercise, but specific for the area of personal development. It is planning for your dreams in regards to personal development.


Personal Development Plan


“Without good direction, people lose their way;
the more wise counsel you follow, the better your chances.”



The bible says that if people don’t have a vision they will perish. What is your vision? What is your personal development plan? Who would you like to become?

Don’t Make A Small Personal Development Plan!



I hope you have a dream or a vision in your heart for something greater than what you have now. God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us. If we are not thinking, hoping or asking for anything, we are cheating ourselves. We need to think big thoughts, hope for big things and ask for big things.


I know the economy looks bleak however with God nothing is impossible.


However, it is only an unwise person who only thinks, dreams and asks big but fails to realize that an enterprise is build by wise planning.


When I first started with my home based business the first thing my partner asked me to do was to focus on my goals, my why for doing the business. I remember thinking what does this have to do with business? What I later discovered is that it has everything to do with business. If you don’t know why your doing something, when the day comes when life gets tough, you will quit if your why isn’t big enough.


My why is being able to work from home and not have to work outside of the home? I have had horrific experiences in my jobs of being mistreated. It never seemed to matter how well I did my job which was part of the problem. I did my job so well that jealousy began to uproot its ugly head from either my employer or an employee.


Creating a personal development plan and dreams for the future are possibilities, but not what I call “positivelies.” In other words, they are possible, but they will not positively occur unless we do our part.


All of us have potential and many of us want a manifestation of it, but too often we are not willing to wait, be determined and work hard at developing that potential. We have a lot of “wish bone,” but not much “back bone.”


Far too many people take the “quick fix” method for everything. They only want what makes them feel good right now. They are not willing to invest for the future.


“Don’t just enter the race for the fun of being in it – run to win!”



There is a gold mine hidden in every life, but we have to dig to get to it. We must be willing to dig deep and go beyond how we feel or what is convenient. If we dig down deep into the spirit, we will find strength we never knew we had.

However, if you’re like most people, you have grown up with the “weakness prevention” model. You’ve been told that to become strong, successful, or truly serve God and the world, you must “fix” your weaknesses.


That thinking is just plain wrong.


In Gallup’s research into human potential over the past 30 years – including interviews with more than 2 million people – the evidence is overwhelming: You will be most successful in whatever you do by building your life around your greatest natural abilities rather that your weaknesses. Your talents should be your primary focus! The problem is that most people don’t even know what their greatest talents are or how to go about discovering them.


When I discovered my talents I felt exhilarated. It gave me hope because now I could build on the strengths that I had been blessed with rather than try to fix my weaknesses that never seemed to get better no matter how hard I tried.


What I discovered is that I had been given a unique combination of talents and when I discovered my talents, I began to discover my calling, my purpose in life.


Like everyone, you have been blessed with a deep reservoir of untapped potential. That potential is your talent, waiting to be discovered and put to use in your life. It’s time for you to unleash the power of that potential and begin to discover your unique talents.

The Single Best Investment You Can Make In Yourself, Swim Upstream

January 28th, 2010 by monschl 2 comments »

Rule #10 – Swim Upstream

Swim Upstream

Go the other way. Ignore the conventional wisdom. If everybody else is doing it one way, there’s a good chance you can find your niche by going in exactly the opposite direction.



“You have to believe in yourself when no one else does.  That’s what makes you a winner.” Venus Williams



Being able to swim upstream whether it is starting a new business, stopping the dysfunction in your family or standing up for your beliefs takes guts.



Take A Leap!
Come to the edge, He said.
They said: We are afraid.
Come to the edge, He said.
They came.  He pushed them,
And they flew…..



Guillaume Apollinaire


Belief is the starting point of all achievement.  Without a belief in your mission and in yourself,  you can never succeed on a long-term basis.  You may have temporary success, but eventually the supercomputer between your ears will work to sabotage your success.


If You Are Going To Swim Upstream You Must Take Action


We all know people who have lots of dreams and ambitions, but unfortunately none of it is accompanied by any real action.  They talk about what they are going to do when they finally get their last degree or move to the day shift or get enough money together to start their own business or whatever the excuse is this week.


The unfortunate truth is that many people have their wishbone where their backbone should be.  All the “wouldas, couldas and shouldas” in the world will not get a single thing done.


“A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decided to do something about them now. Not tomorrow.  Not next week.  But today.  The true entrepreneur is a doer, not a dreamer.” Nolan Bushell


All the successful people I know have been willing to take a chance – a leap of faith – even though they were afraid.  Sometimes they were terrified, but they knew if they didn’t act, the opportunity would pass them by.  They trusted their intuition and they simply went for it.


“Do you want to be safe and good, or do you want to take a chance and be great?” Jimmy Johnson


Get In The Game, Swim Upstream



You have probably heard the story of the good and faithful man who fell on hard times.  He seemed to encounter one financial disaster after another.  One night in desperation, he prayed, “Dear God, please let me win the lottery!”  At first, he was optimistic that God would grant his wish. However, after not winning for several months, his faith began to falter.  After a year, he became downright bitter.



In anger, he shouted at the heavens, “God, I believed you would help me, yet an entire year has passed without you answering my prayers!”  At that moment, lighting flashed and thunder rolled and a voice bellowed from the heavens, “Give me a break up here!  The least you could do is buy a ticket!”



Have you bought your ticket?  Have you taken a chance on yourself?  And that does not mean you have to quit your job, sell your home and sink your life savings into a new business tomorrow.  But it does mean that you have to start where you are, with what you have and do something.



There is real power in just getting started.  In fact, momentum is one of the strongest forces on the planet.  For instance, a standing locomotive can be held in place by a small block of wood.  However, once that same locomotive gains momentum, it can crash through a solid brick wall – it becomes unstoppable.  You are the same way.  As soon as you get momentum behind your actions, you too will be unstoppable.



Are you unstoppable?

Are you ready to swim upstream?

Are you ready to take action?
