0 Days Off

Wednesday, Jun 24th, 2009 by Jonathan Volk

You know, it’s funny. Many people think they would love the lifestyle of a person who owns a business and works from home.

The perks are amazing, I love it so much. Many people say how they wish they could do what I do for work, etc.

The downside most people never see is while I am away on a trip, on vacation, or trying to relax.

If you want a full time, make money online career, be prepared for the following:

  • 0 days off. – If you’re working from home full time, you’re making a significant amount. Because of the business model, any number of problems can happen on a daily basis. You never leave work like a traditional job. I never truly take a vacation or travel without first having a laptop and ensuring I have access to the internet.
  • Ups and Downs – Working from home can be very up and down. Mix a down day and vacation time and it’s a definite damper on the fun. In the affiliate life style, most often, you don’t have a steady income.
  • Stress – Working at home actually can be pretty stressful. You have no clear direction. You are your own boss, which is AWESOME but at the same time… means you have to motivate yourself, come up with a goal, find a way to meet that goal. Mix this with the above and now you’re starting to realize that the life of working from home is not 100% all glamor.

So after reading this, are you thinking? I still want to pursue working from home / affiliate marketing? Great! Now get to work! ;)
