An Internet marketing online solutionprovides the easiest, cheapest way for anyone to start a business.Where else can you find a business model that:

  • you can be in control of you time.

  • work from anywhere you have internet access.

  • lets you choose what you want to work with based on your interests and expertise.

  • you can start for a few hundred dollars

  • has infinite income potential

  • enables you to be a sales rep for the companies you choose to promote

  • provide a way for you to sell your own products to the world.

Why you need a business of your own.

Everyone needs to create resilience intheir lives. We need to be resilient personally, financially andenvironmentally. The Blue Zone Project has identified 9 elements thatare common in communities where people live unusually long andhealthy lives. Twenty percent of our longevity is determined by ourgenes and 80% depends on our environment. We need financialresilience in order to be able to be prepared for any emergency.

Half of all Americans have noretirement savings. If you are one of them and you are over 50 thereis no way you can recover. You are going to have to work as long asyou can and when you can no longer work you are going to live on lessthan $2K per month social security.

I can see only one solution and that isto develop a business of your own that will provide you passive income from several sources. What is passive income? It is incomethat keeps coming whether you can work your business or not. We needto develop a business that can provide us a comfortable life stylewhen we can no longer work.

Understand why you do what you do

A passive income that can supplement myretirement is part of Why I am building an internet business. Thereally big Why I am building my business is to leave a legacyto my youngest daughter. She is among the 50% of Americans who haveno retirement savings.

How can you build your internetbusiness?

The business model is simple.Implementing your business will take a lot of consistent work.

You will need a website and an opt-inlist. You will need to learn how to promote your website, and youwill need product to sell to your audience. You can sell your ownproduct and services or you can sell other peoples products. You cando both.

If you have more money than time youcan hire someone like me to build your site for you. You can evenhire someone to write your content. However, I recommend you learnhow to build a website, learn how to write content your audience willwant to read, and write it in a way that will get your content rankedon the first page of the search engines. How else will you know youare getting your money's worth from your contractors?

Do you have the money you need?

Do you have the money you need to growold comfortably? Getting old is going to cost a lot more than youthink. Do you plan to work till you die? That's not a good plan. Yourboss will probably find a way to “surplus” you sometime beforeyou turn 70. There are many ways to phase into retirement. You cannegotiate a part-time arrangement with your boss. You can retire andthen work as a consultant for your company. You can take a variety ofshort term gigs. Click here for a manual on “New Ways to Work.”

Personally, I think the best thing isto develop your own business that will provided you the recurringincome you need to pursue the things in life that are important toyou. One of the longevity elements the Blue Zone Project hasidentified is living with purpose. When people know why they get upin the morning they tend to live longer than those people who justdrift through life. The sooner you can retire and focus on shat isimportant in your life the better it will be for you and for theworld.

Your commitment

If you can focus on developing youinternet business for at least 10 hours per week you will be able toretire within 5 years. The more time you can devote to business thesooner retirement can happen.

We started this article talking aboutthe importance of building resilience into our lives. Being resilientrequires us to understand the risks we face and deciding what weshould do about them. I expect to be hit by one more hurricane in mylife time. I am stockpiling the supplies I need to live comfortablyfor at least three months without going to a store or a bank. Beingprepared takes money.

The hurricane may not happen, but weall know we will grow old. Growing old costs money.

When our business provides us theincome we need to meet the challenges life throws at us, we will beable to call ourselves financially resilient. When we are prepared tomeet life's challenges, we will be personally resilient. And when welive in a healthy environment, we will be able to maximize ourability to live a long, happy and productive life.

This is perfect. Thanks. A lot

You laid out the reasons perfectly. We have to be in control of our future. WA training gives us the tools.
Debbie

well said, my friend. I do have a good retirement, but so many of my friends do not. I have been talking to them about WA.

Thanks for the post.

Spot on, well said my friend!

Well said

What a deal Bill!

Excellent Post Bill.

You are so right, Bill! We just posted our blog today on WA, emphasizing what you state, about needing to keep working... even though many are retired at our ages. Please have a look if you get the chance.
WA, and the ability to work online, will be a secure future for us, if we work hard enough and commit the time.
Also, your point of having a plan each day is better than drifting through time, no matter what lifestyle we have.
We wish you every success as we take this journey together.
Colette and Pepperell
