Work from Home in the Philippines

Today I’m officially starting my new gameplan for making money online. My first target is to earn 26,000 in passive income–26,000 is our monthly expenses for my family. I am aiming to achieve this in 3 months. Right now, the bulk of my income is from my work-from-home job, so I’d really like to shift it to residual income.

This new gameplan includes:

Having daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly goals and sticking to those goals. In a study of Harvard students, 10% of the students had goals in their minds and they were the ones who earn at least thrice as much as everyone else. Yet 3% of these students have CLEAR WRITTEN GOALS, and it is these same 3% that earn at least ten times as much as everyone else. Keeping a list of your goals is a very powerful time management tool. You’ll be surprised to find how much you can do in a day, plus it really feels good to see all that you have accomplished for the day. It makes you feel good about yourself and keeps you motivated.

Waking up 2 hours early. I intend to wake up two hours earlier just to have time for exercise as well as to work on my most important goals. Big goals means you will be encountering big challenges, and big challenges=STRESS. You’ll really need your health up at its peak to be able to face these challenges.

Learn, learn, learn. Although I’ve stopped college, I never stopped learning. I intend to continue doing so through audio learning and seminars. I’m particularly focusing on success training, leadership, organizational behavior, and business training audios. You can find these on the internet, by the way, like on YouTube. Try a search for Robert Kiyosaki and watch his videos. Buy his book on your local bookstore or borrow one from a businessman.

Have time to relax. This year has been very busy for me. Sometimes I work 7 days a week for two months straight. If I wasn’t keeping myself in top shape through regular 30 minute to an hour exercise then I would probably be sick in bed right now. And no, I’m not a workaholic. I do love to work, but I enjoy my relaxation time as well. I do continue working hard because I’m aiming to retire at 30. Go someplace close to nature, do martial arts training or something, and write the fantasy novel I wanted so much to write.

Tithe more. Everytime I receive money from my job, I go out to buy groceries then hand them out to people sleeping on the streets. When I feel down and really stressed and there are really times when I’m broke because of the bills to pay with my business and due to the past few months of recession, I go out to do the same thing and I feel like ready to work again for the next week.

By next year, I’m aiming to be able to help support a foundation I’ve been working with for differently abled persons. These people are trained in IT, and yet they couldn’t apply their skills yet due to lack of experience and because they have a very slow internet connection right now that takes 20 seconds to load a page and only one PC is connected to the internet. I was thinking of at least sponsoring their internet connection so they could apply their skills and could avail of work through the internet.

I like earning big, but I like passive income better. To me, passive income (also known as residual income) is the best form of income. This is the reason I let go of my first job, I let go of my college education which could have landed me a safe secure job, and why I worked basically for free for a year setting up my own business instead of earning big working for another company. I learned not to work for money, at least not in the short term, and I looked to making money work for me.

Wealth is measured in terms of how long you can survive even if you stop working, and if you have the right amount of passive income then you could basically survive for a long time. Passive income simply means that you earn money even if you’re not doing anything. It can be in the form of business, investment, or your very own blog. Yes, a blog. Throughout the course of this book I will teach you how to build your own blog, how to promote it, and how to earn money from it.

The business perspective. I studied business by listening to successful businessmen and women. I learned from millionaires, billionaires, and big time fortune 500 consultants. But no, I didn’t even meet them. I read their books, I read their stories, I listened to their public seminars. Napoleon Hill, Robert Kiyosaki, Brian Tracy, Anthony Robbins, there’s so many I studied and although they all explained things from different perspectives, I found that all their teachings converged. You could say I was a seminar and audiobook junkie, having their lessons played over and over again every day even as I worked and even as I played internet games. And yes, I’m just an ordinary young man who’s also

I will be sharing with you some of the concepts I learned and applied but i won’t be going into much details. Some of these may not be as easy to grasp at first and may be opposite of what you believed. For example, you may believe that you need to have a safe secure job earning 10,000 with social security and health benefits rather than a 28,000 work-from-home job with risk and no security but I would tell you otherwise. The more job security you seek, the less financial freedom you will have in the future. The more risk you take, the more gains you will. The key is to manage the risk, to minimize the loss.
