I quit my day job 3 years ago today!

My Home Office
It is hard to believe, but my last “official” day of work was 3 years ago today.

In other words, my last day of having a 9-5 office style job was March 17, 2006 and although I really quit because I was moving, I had it set in my mind that I needed to find a way to survive on my own. I needed to make my own rules and earn my own paycheck.

With that, I have since figured out ways to earn money. I will admit that it started out pretty rocky, and since there has been a few times that made me question my decision, but all things considered I would not want to have it any other way.

I have bought items to resell on eBay, worked through a virtual call center, and have been blogging full-time for a good while now. Overall things are going well right now, I love blogging and I would say that I am pretty happy with the way things have turned out, of course that is not to say they could not be better.

I am living the Internet dream, some may say the Internet Lifestyle, but I still want more. You see I am currently working as a network blogger, which means I get paid only when I produce.

Like I said, I want more and that means being able to earn at all times, so while I am currently stable and happy, I am going to begin Internet Marketing, or at least begin learning how to. Honestly, this is something that I should have pursued a long time ago, but the task seems daunting. I have however picked up two courses recently that should set me off on a good start, but more on that to come later.

In the meantime, I am going to enjoy the day and my 3-year anniversary of working for myself and making my own rules.
