The Freedom of Being Your Own Boss

Looking at being self employed from the standard point of view it can be interpreted as: “work yourself and do it steadily”. This is an idea which doesn’t appeal to lots of people. It is the general idea, that being self employed means that unless you work all the time your income will not be there and what’s even worse you have the option of 24 hours per day or of having employees with all the resulting liabilities.

Especially in societies with a high level of social security, where unemployment benefits are a standard, the idea of being employed spreads security some way or other. People think that even if out of work they will have at least some money to keep them going. In contrast self employed people are considered to be working without a safety grid.

As we are what we think it is small wonder that people have somewhat lost their dreams in the process or they have become so remote that they only reside in some far away fairy tale. The habit to adjust to what ever income they have has become a plague – and we all know, plagues are destructive. They are destructive to the inflicted person as well as to the society where the plague strikes.

Now let us discuss the freedom of being your own boss. In a solid MLM business, where all the required features are top notch you all of a sudden have the chance to actually build a business. This means you stop exchanging your time for money, the key factor which keeps you in the rat race in conventional business.

In MLM it is the top requirement that first of all you build yourself and only then you build a team, you support your team, you build your customer base and provide service to them and you learn step by step how to become proficient in this new environment.

What does it mean to build yourself. As stated at the beginning of this contribution, it is inherent in our society that people tend to loose their dreams. So building yourself means recapturing your dreams, learning to create a vision and ultimately a goal which will become the fuel for your activities.

When acting from a burning desire to achieve your goal, all your activities of building your team by building the people you work with are fruitful. It is wonderful to watch people evolve, give them the support they require and to have great life time friendships develop. What do you think?

A residual income will be the bye product of building your business, which will give you the freedom to live the life of your dreams.

Come and join the ride!
