How Do I Quit My Day Job and Work For Myself? Learn How You Can Do the Same
By Douglas Quinn




Are you one of the millions of people that wish that you could find a way to start your own business? Have you ever asked yourself "How do I quit my day job and work for myself?" The good news is that many people have gone down this road. But the bad news is that only those people who are dedicated to success will be the ones to obtain their dream. So that being said, you could be one of the lucky ones if you have the determination and the drive to achieve your goal of running your own small business.



I once found my self asking "how do I quit my day job and work for myself?" I was working a dead end 45 hour work week job, making my boss and the people above him millions of dollars a year. It is sad that the little guy is the one that does all the work while getting paid the least. And this is the reason that I decided that I had to find a better way to make a living and support my family.



The first thing I did was write down the different skills and hobbies that I liked to do. Some examples are various sports, writing, working on computers and spending time with my kids. So I set a goal to try and find something that would take advantage of all my skills and hobbies and turn it into a business that would allow me to quit my day job and work for myself.



The second area I had to address was to document what career goals I wanted to achieve. This is very important, and you need to make sure that you write everything down. Start your goals off small for the beginning of your business. For example, my first goal was to make my first affiliate sale within 2 months of starting my business. I knew that I would get better as time went on and my next goal would be to have my first $100 day, then a $250 day and then a $500 day and so on. Setting business goals will help you to see how well you are doing and if you need to make adjustment to achieve the goals.



Do not get discouraged if you miss a goal deadline. It does not mean that you failed. What it does mean is that you need to change your approach a little bit to see what works and what does not work.



The final part of starting your own small business is to get that fire burning inside of you. Get excited about your business. At first my spouse was a little hesitant about me starting my own affiliate marketing business. She was afraid because she did not understand. I sat her down and explained to her that this was a dream of mine and that I needed to do it to be happy. When she realized that cash was actually coming in she got excited about it and we are now working together to grow our business. It is a business that I hope I can one day teach my children.



So I hope that my example has helped you to understand that I was able to quit my day job and work for myself. I did this without any specialized training or degree. All I did recognized my skills and use them to develop a business that utilized my strengths. I stayed dedicated to my goals and did not let anyone tell me that I could not do it. If I can do it so can you.
