Working From Home. Opportunities Increase.

With the U.S. economy in the toilet and companies needing to cut costs, or close shop, many are looking to hire at-home workers. The increase in job loss and unemployment has also raised the demand for legitimate work-at-home opportunities.

This blog is a free work-at-home resource for anyone. You can find both; companies that offer legitimate work-at-home opportunities and home business ideas.

I believe the decline in our economy is ultimately going to catapult an already changing workforce. More of us have already been looking for ways to take our destiny into our own hands by becoming independent contractors, starting our own companies, or demanding our employers to offer more flexibility and the ability to work from home.

Check back often and feel free to comb through previous posts. I have posted many home business ideas with low start-up costs and have featured companies that offer work-from-home positions.

Also feel free to post any home business, work-at-home opportunities, or contractor positions you come across.

Today I came across a couple of companies that are hiring customer care representatives to work from home. Their need increases during the holiday season so you will have to ask them about long term positions if that is what you are looking for.

Do You Hate Your Job?

When I come across great FREE resources I like to share. Oprah had well-known career coach and author, Marcus Buckingham, on
her show and is offering a free online class with him that helps you
figure out whether you are in the right field and what your natural
strengths are.
I took the online class and look for my own strengths now instead of letting others tell me what they are!

Update!

Wow, time has flown! I didn't realize it has been so long since I have updated this blog. I have been in the process of making many changes in my life! Ever since I have read the book A New Earth, by Eckhart Tolle, my outlook and priorities have changed somewhat.
I will briefly share with you what I have learned from this book as far as career and purpose are concerned...
We have an inner purpose and an outer purpose in life. Our inner purpose is primary, the most important, and our outer purpose is secondary. Inner purpose is who you are, outer purpose is what you do and the roles you play. Inner purpose is evolving as a human by awakening to our spirit(or whatever you want to call it) and realizing it is who we truly are. Once we awaken to our true self(our spirit) which is always in the present moment, then what we do as our outer purpose will align itself with the inner purpose and just flow naturally.
If that makes sense to you and want to know more, I suggest buying the book! If it doesn't make sense to you or you just don't care, that is ok, move onto something else that does make sense to you!
That is where I am at right now. I haven't decided what direction I am going to be taking this blog yet. I will let you know when it comes to me! Meanwhile, I hope you find the existing information here useful.

Action Of The Day! Create A Bucket List.

I challenge you to do this ONE simple thing, sometime today:
Today create a 'Bucket List'. This list consists of things you want to do before you kick-the-bucket. In other words, die.
Keep the list handy for when you start feeling like life is getting boring, mundane, or a little depressing. It is a good reminder of the limited amount of time we have here and that you need to be focusing your energy on things you want to do.

My husband and I saw the movie, 'The Bucket List' this weekend. It was an inspiring movie and made me revisit my bucket list. I added and crossed off a couple of things from my list. It is fun doing the things on the list and then crossing it off. Try it!

Have A Great Day! See You Tomorrow!

Action Of The Day! Who Are You Really?

I challenge you to do this ONE simple thing, sometime today:
Try to define who you are without naming your things, your career, and the roles you play in life. Tough one. See what you come up with though.

I am someone who is passionate about experiencing all that I can, I am creative, introspective, trying to love to the best of my ability, I am someone who wants to leave this world a little better place than before I got here, and who wants to know true happiness, freedom, and peace while I am here.

Have A Great Weekend! See You Monday!
