Leaving My Job - Best Choice I have Made! - Thanks Warrior Forum

23 replies
I left my job last week as a dancer. I am now 4 months pregnant and had to stop as my bump was starting to show. The thought of leaving my job at the time was worrying as I know I can´t claim my maternity leave here for another 4 months. We had to rely fully on my husbands income and what I could earn online.

I have been working part time on and off online for 3 years and decided to join the WF a few weeks ago. I have made money here and there but a few months ago stopped as my paypal account got frozen due to a chargeback of a Flippa auction I had sold months before!

I didn´t know where to go from there and after joining the WF I have met alot of helpful people and have gained so much advice to building my business back up from minus again.

I am happy to say that now I have left my dancing job I have all the time in the world to work on my online business and so far its going pretty good.

I re started my earning online by writing articles. I found a few clients who liked my writing style and wanted to hire me to write articles in a variety of niche topics. I am now making a steady daily income from my writing work which covers my dancing job income.

Ontop of that I have launched 2 services in the WF in the last two weeks which are slowly starting to pick up sales.

I have put a few of my small adsense earning blogs up for sale on Flippa and all have so far sold! 2 of them sold for the BIN price of $300! I have another 20 of these which I plan to sell on Flippa throughout the next few months and I am in the process of setting up more!

I am also planning to launch my first WSO at the end of this month.

I am also looking into an automated business income stream. I am considering youtube or building more adsense sites.

I have put together a business plan and I want to make 5k per month in 5 months time.
I can see my income increasing daily and I LOVE it.

I just wanted to say thanks to all the warriors who have offered me help and advise and are helping me pick up my business form zero.

    Great example of taking action and reaping the benefits.

    The more you put into your business, the more you get out of it. I wish you luck in the future!

    That's great! I think most Warriors have the dream of eventually leaving their day job.

      Double Congratulations on the bump and the great start you seem to have made in your IM life!
      Make the most of the next few months while the 'bump' is growing and with your writing and site building you will be well set up to enjoy your little one when he (or she) arrives while still having the security of money coming in - double joy!!

      All the very best!

      Oh ya! In my case the day job is as a writer - I am looking forward to the day when I don't need clients at all.

      So, babymama, congrats for making it a reality! Sometimes life throws things at us that cause us to take action.

      Good for those of us who started early enough, to start their business during the school..

      My friend started his business when he was 13 years old But also I know people that are working and trying all their life.

      So just one more time, wish you the best and hope your business will grow.. from 5k to much more.

    I was laid off last year. I decided I never wanted to set foot into a corporate environment again and have been working to build my IM businesses ever since.
