Learning is Earning

Over the last month, I've taken 4 legit days off . Every day otherwise, my nose has been to the grindstone. I've completly shifted my focus to learning as much as I can, everyday through WA. And to boot, I've just completed my final Level, and all the lessons within the training tab.

My WHY? Financial Freedom.

And hence - Learning is Earning!

Over the past 10 years of my life, I've had a good, steady job. I was a people pleaser. It was a conventional money making job. It put food on the table, it paid some bills, it gave us time to earn a holiday every two weeks to go camping.

This lasted until about 2019. My job ended, and I didn't have a fall back plan. I'm at the age where anything I applied for, I knew I could do, but the next boss would have to be the deciding factor.

So What Next?

I started up into Network Marketing. We listed our house for sale, and took an "extended" camping trip. We approached it as a next phase into our family of 4 lifestyle.

We got rolling in the fall of 2021. I was geared and focused within my MLM company, to rank advance as much as possible. I chased people, I commited, I learned.

In fact, I learned so much, that it became overwhelming. I knew that if I followed my uplines, dedicated my learning and applied it to my potential, I'd be successful. That wasn't the case.

Another Job

By the Summer of this Year, we found another job. It was one that tied into our entire family still being together. This is a critical mind shift, because I had to re-learn alot, however, I continued as much as possible in learning with my MLM.

Until...

I just couldn't. I gave up on marketing. I saw the potential to earn, but just couldn't with the fact we were extremely remote. It made it hard with another job.

It only lasted the summer mind you, and that was OK. It gave us a chance to re-visit many people we hadn't been near in the last year. And this shift was happening for a reason, we just clearly couldn't see it yet.

Insert New Goals Here

Fast forward until this exact date, I have committed and continued to learn. One entire month of learning, and this is my outcome...a working website, a bunch of affiliate links of popular companies to market for, a chance for financial success on MY OWN TERMS, not for someone else.

Although we are going back to the same job we had last summer, I'm approaching things differently. I'm going to continue learning, and potentially earning. I have 4 months to make that happen before we start.
