I Quit My Job! (Sort of)
Only to get another one!
Seriously though, I had to quit my other job. I was driving 80 miles one way, 160 a day, 5 days a week. Basically spending $2/hr of that pay in just getting there, plus 15 hours a week on the road, no good.
I am an Electrician by career, so finding jobs is not hard for me. I finally found one near home which will free up nearly 15 hours a week to work on my online business! I will now be entering the Service Tech side of the industry, I was working with newspapers for the last 10 years, but due to circumstances (aka closings) I was forced to take this job super far away.
That's all over and I can't wait to dive back into Wealth Affilate training! I have been slowly completing the training and getting my site set up. Wrote some reviews but the consistency was impossible only having 2hrs a day to sit at the computer and 1 weekend day to put out something. My sanity will also return as I will no longer be in a dying industry that is run like crap.
So while the title may have been a little misleading, I have continued to get my small commissions from my email marketing side of the business. Not to shabby, but I must cut back personal spending to keep that money going up! Once I get a decent amount saved I will be trying to figure out a good way to reinvest it, so let me know if you have ideas.
I hope everyone elses weekend was a good as mine! Never gets better than quitting a job! I have a week off in between jobs so I hope to get a lot of work done on here and of course around the house. Have a great weekend!

Thats a smart move Andrew. Let nothing hold you back from building your biz. Especially a job.
Congrats to adding 15 hours more to your training and finding a new job which shows you can work even harder to your most treasured website.
WA training opens unlimited ideas to relate what you're looking for.
Research, research , research!
Cheers!
I know how hard all that driving can be on a daily basis. I'm glad you found something closer to home. I pray that you exceed your strongest desires with WA.

good onya Andrew, you can always build a website that advertise your business to the local folks...lol...that is if you still want to do some electrical work....wishing you well
Way to go, Andrew! That's good that you were able to find work closer to where you live. Freeing up more time to do WA is fantastic! I wish you much success as you pursue your online goals!

I know that feeling all to well I have been driving two hours to work 5 days a week for the past 3 years. It really does suck but you know it doesn't keep me from loving my life and doing what I want you know?
So now when i get even more traction with my sites eventually a year from now i will be my goal i will at least be making half of what I currently make or maybe more.
I always strive for the highest goal and make little goals to get to the big goal. even if I so called "fail" (blessing in disguise) I will keep pushing until i get my goal of not working for a boss anymore.
I hope your job gets better and you keep achieving all the goals you have set
