This is a great blog.

I’ve recently started a website where I use a dropshipper. So far this is the closest I’ve come to making passive income. It’s really quite good. Eg. I just made an $800.00 sale last week and made $250.00 profit. I didn’t have to make any product, and did about 15 minutes of work. I’m still trying other ventures, but this seems to be working the best.

I got the inspiration for this from a blog I read http://www.passionatepassiveincome.blogspot.com/ I find it really quite a good read like this blog.

I love your site, there’s so much I can relate to. Specifically this post. In 14 days, it’ll be one year of WFH for me. And I’m still adjusting. Never thought it would be such a challenge.

I’m going to get surfacy here for a moment. I find if I wear a necklace, some funky accessory, and favorite clothes, I feel so much better. For women and men, I think it’s important to feel good, esp on the days when there’s absoltely no time for breaks or excercise in our schedule. So, I treated myself to good quality stuff (which is weird, b/c I never did before). This also extends to my desktop. I also invested in a “HappyLite” for the winter (that’s the real product name!) to lift my energy too.

Totally agree with you here Pat. I own and manage a currency trading business and have been a 4 man shop, but all my employees and business partner are in other states. I totally suffer from having no physical contact through the day, but that got me motivated to volunteer some of my time and started mentoring to teens a year ago.

It’s VERY important to have a schedule and not attempt to work 24-7. life balance is HUGE… no matter what happens or is needed, I stop when my wife walks in the house from work each day and if it’s something urgent, then I’ll swing back in after a couple hours of family time.

Thanks for your post here.

I couldn’t agree more Jean, great point.

I try to close my office door (i.e. our spare bedroom), but Pat’s office seems to be in a corner of his living room which must be doubly hard to set boundaries!

Good Point Joshua,

One of the things I have been doing lately is exercising in the middle of the day (Versus only before or after work) It clears my mind and for that 45-60 minutes I am out there exercising I am able to evaluate my day and prioritize the second half.

Office Ass…LOL

Systems and processes is something to consider posting on. The question has to be asked: Are we spending our time most effectively to attain our objective? Which for most is financial independence.

I heard Mark Joyner talk about the importance of moving in the “straightest” line from A to B. A is where you are (current) B is ideal. (see the first paragraph of your About Me Page) that’s what most people want )”to feel like the luckiest (fill in the blank) that’s freedom! Hope that made sense! LOL

Exercise is critical to the work-at-home entrepreneur. It stimulates your mind for amny hours after you did the strenuous activity. Plus, we spend waaaay too many hours in front of the monitor and that time needs to be balanced with exercise so you don’t get a serious case of office-ass.
