How the Internet Changed My Life...

10 replies
12 years. I have been full-time online for 12 years now.

And I was sat here today thinking how different my life would have been if I hadn't have become an Internet marketer.

Because of the Internet:

- - I have not had to 'Drive to Work' in 12 years.

- - I have not had a Boss telling me what to do.

- - I have traveled more than most people do in 5 lifetimes.

- - I met my beautiful wife online [Check out her pics in my Warrior Photo Album]

- - I have made some of the most amazing friends.

- - Been able to fly to China to help a young Kid who had been attacked with Acid
[Huge Thanks to Yanik Silver for helping with that one. Look for the YouTube Video:
"The Story of Chen Chao Part Two" for the details]

- - Learned to LOVE marketing and the brilliant, gifted people who teach it.

And you know what?

I wouldn't swap working from home online for anything in the world.

Sure I have had times of unbelievable frustration and LOTS of challenges.

I have been ripped off, lied to and kicked in the teeth more than a few times.

But I have seen such awesome blessings and met so many amazing people that, looking back, I can say "It has been worth it all"

I hear friends talking about how they "hate their jobs" and it strikes me:

"I really love this stuff!"

And best of all I truly believe my very best days are yet to come!

So if you are starting off and you are fighting with the inevitable 'Information Overload' or you are caught in the trap of chasing the latest 'Bright Shiny Objects'

Don't quit!

Hang on to your dreams with both hands and never let go!

It really is worth it!

  • Been working online for 5 years and I am going to get into the IM world once again. The freedom of working at my own time and pace is something I do not want exchange with anything may it be a high position at a multinational company.

    I would not waste my time getting stressed out and be dictated by a boss on how to do things with his eyes on my back every single time.

    @copywriter: Good luck on all your endeavors. For sure there's more to come!

    Saw your "How to create an account on Facebook" ebook. People actually buy that crap? hahaha

    I recall going into a gag gift store once and they had a small package of maybe a teaspoon of dirt inside. Printed on it was a cartoon of someone looking at a table, furious over the mess. I guess you were supposed to pay $3 for this bit of dirt and put it on the table as a prank.

    Guess people will buy anything.

    Nice post. Hopefully this will inspire and motive more to enjoy this lifestyle as well.

    I agree, it really is a special feeling and words can barely begin to describe it.

    I am sure you enjoy a lot more benefits than the ones you listed above. The freedom and independence sure makes it enjoyable.
