entrepreneurship

in times of difficulty evolution begins, people begin to adapt and change their lives and even the way they think in order to survive.  opportunity didn’t stop knocking, but have you stopped listening? if your unemployed right now take a look around and see what opportunity is waiting for you to apply your skills working for yourself or how you can begin spending your life acheiving your dreams … do you remember what they even were? get out, spend some time in nature searching your soul and believing in yourself.  the world is NOT a cold, hard reality … it’s… keep on reading >>

It’s always exciting when you first find out you landed the ‘big gig’ … it doesn’t take long before the edge that you had when you were brought on board for begins to dimenish. What happens?  I think it’s comfort zone … the money starts coming in like a paycheck and to ‘hunt’ for the next gig stops.  You no longer HAVE to keep your skills at the top of your game in order to entice the next client.  And before you know it – your toast! And you not only have a paying gig, but you’ve dropped the ball… keep on reading >>

I was looking through the USA Today newspaper last week and saw an article with your typical scarcity title, something about 40% of Americans are scared of loosing their jobs.  But under the bold title was a subtitle that talked about how many that have lost their jobs are finding a very successful opportunity in consulting. Now, I’ve written about consulting before.  But this really got me thinking about the areas of skills people could look at to rebound from a lost job, and there are three key skills that can be used to create a business with.

Regardless of whether you have decided to designate yourself with my term of ‘genetically unemployable’ or not, if your here then you at the very least have an interest or intrigue with entrepreneurship.  And that is really what this whole blog is about … sharing experiences of being a successful business person. Loosing a job, otherwise referred to as a J-O-B, is typically looked at as a failure.  You failed at keeping that employer happy enough with your daily tasks to continue to pay you an hourly wage or monthly salary.  That just simply isn’t true!! Let me clarify, yes… keep on reading >>

Living nervously excited about my future pretty much sums up my life, how about yours?   I have noticed over the past few years that most people never question there own ‘comfort’ and if they feel alive or they just accept the comfort zone.  Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with being comfortable … but there is something wrong with feeling dead. It’s the excitement of a soul on fire that brings about change in this world, especially the business world.  We are taught that if you are nervous inside then you need to find the ‘problem’ and address it so… keep on reading >>

I was asked today if I was retired, even though he stated I looked way too young to be of ‘retirement’ age.  And that the life I show in pictures and actions on my Facebook sounds like I am indeed living a retired lifestyle. What a compliment! I am not retired, and have no intention of retiring because I love my life and the career I have created to allow me to live a genetically unemployable lifestyle.  My gig is Search Engine Optimization and Internet Marketing, but that isn’t for everyone … I urge you to start digging around the Internet… keep on reading >>

I just saw the coolest ad, there is a kid selling some kind of good luck necklace online. And the ad was, buy this good luck charm and help keep a 21 year old from getting a real job! I instantly thought of my blog here, as that is what I spend my time doing these days … working Internet Marketing to never have a ‘real job’ again.  So let’s keep the momentum and enjoy another day of no ‘real job’.  What did you do today that could not have done if you had that real job?

I know I’m not alone in this whole concept of genetically unemployable; everywhere I turn I meet another fascinating person that has taken a unique experience or gift and turned it into a business. A business that not only pays some bills but creates a lifestyle. I read a book this past week that brought a concept that really hit me, and that was living our life from a place of expectancy instead of expectation.  Hear me out here … think about it; when you set an expectation the situation is already concluded.  You will either meet the expectation or… keep on reading >>
