Once I decided to look for a work from home “job”, the first place I decided to look for it was the internet.

 

Why the internet? Well, first of all, at that stage I was already fascinated by the possibilities it offers in all aspects of life, you can say I actually loved the internet.

I even found my soul mate there (but this is not for this blog, maybe I should start another one soon J).

Besides, the internet is at home, so it looks perfect for a work from home business.

 

So I typed “work from home” on Google, and checked what came up.

Oh, I typed it in Hebrew then, as I thought that seeing that “home” for me now is in Israel, so most offers valid for here would be in Hebrew.

 

After dismissing the data entry, filling surveys and so on offers, I was left with what looked like what I then also referred to as “those pyramids”.

To be honest – although I did come across and even tried a bit of MLM, I did not know much about it, and believed every story that was going around, most of which were very unflattering to say the least.

 

I then saw a very interesting site that wrote about work from home, wellness and baby boomers, and how that was the direction the world was going.

No specific company was mentioned (fortunately I guess), only a lot of info and some people’s stories, and then there was a place to put my details, including my phone number.

 

A few hours later this lady phoned me. She wanted me to come for an interview the following day, but as I was working at that stage it was difficult.

She then suggested I come for a 2 day seminar in a hotel by the sea.

Quite impulsively I decided to try it, thinking that the worst that can happen is that if I am bored with the seminar, I can sit looking at the sea reading my book.

 

The company in question was Herbalife by the way, and perhaps it was just as well I did not know that in the beginning, as I was relying on rumors rather than facts.

 

The seminar was wonderful. The people made every effort to make me comfortable, I heard amazing stories about people’s health and general wellbeing that improved due to consuming the products, people who made quite substantial sums of money working from home after hours, after finishing their day job, everyone was happy, singing, dancing……….I was hooked J

Oh no! I cannot bear the thought of another day of getting up at the crack of dawn, crawling through the morning traffic and sitting in that office!

Besides, I do love my home so much…..Wouldn’t it be wonderful to be able to work from home and avoid all this, not have to get involved in that horrible office politics, be able to watch the trees and the birds from my veranda while working from home?

 

Work from home…sounds like a dream come true, doesn’t it?

Sounds too good to be true? And me…belonging to that generation of “older women”, baby boomers….

 

Weren’t we all taught that the only way to make it in life is to learn something “practical”, find a good job where you’ll stay until your retirement and then live on your pension money?

 

Well…..the bad news is it no longer works like this.

 

Take me for example. For the last 10 years I had a “good job” with a big company.

But as you can figure out from the beginning of the story, I had quite enough and also realized that my job security or lack thereof depended on big and small bosses, many of whom I would not have chosen as friends if I had any say on the matter…

So I already wanted to work from home, but to be honest – I was too scared to just leave everything and try “making it” from home.

 

And then fate, or whatever you want to call it, came in.

 My contract just expired, the company was trying to save money, no one needed me any more.

 

So instead of just sitting at home feeling sorry for myself, I decided to speed up working with the couple of work from home businesses I was already involved with, check some of the new ones I am constantly being offered, and most important – learn how to do it all in the best way, using also the power on the internet.

 

And as soon as I made that decision, I also started discovering new ways to work from home, new mentors, courses…

 

Do you want to know what I found? What I am doing, and how you can also do it?

I’ll tell you more about it here
