How to Quit Your Slave Job & Become Financially Independent
What is the purpose of our lives? Why are we here in this beautiful place called Earth?
Certainly, most of us don’t find time to reflect upon these basic questions because of the nature of what our day to day life today has become..
A pure race for survival, in a world that is definitely not supposed to be that way..
Excuse my harsh language in the next two minutes, but it is crucial to state some facts before getting further and finding the solutions..
If you wake up every day to go to someone else’s establishment, do some work to advance someone else’s business, and waste your time to make someone else more money, then I’m sorry to bear bad news, but you might be a slave..
If you wake up every day at your alarm clock smothering your dreams to death with a pillow, then you very well might be a slave..
If you’re wasting the most precious of your assets which are your time & your very own existence to advance someone else’s corporation or career, then you are technically a form of a modern time slave..
If you exhausted your natural beautiful mind & got yourself in a load of debts for the sole purpose of qualifying for a piece of paper in order to be accepted in what they introduced to you as the jobs’ market, then you’re likely a slave..
Even if you managed to get a fancy high paying salary jobs in a huge corporate building & most of your coworkers envy you for what you’ve achieved, you might likely be an office slave stuck somewhere in the bottom of the psychopathic corporate ladder which is conceived to only profit the ones on the top of it, not you..
No matter how attractive the position might be, whenever you work for someone else, your financial means of existence & your ability to provide food, water, and shelter to your family, is completely in the hands of another person..
It doesn’t matter if you’re given promises through long term contracts or well written job agreements, the fact of the matter is there is no guarantee of your financial stability other than a promise from an entity that hired you in the first place because you’re profitable to it, & it’ll definitely throw you out once they don’t need you anymore..
There is no job security in working to someone else..
If some day along the way your boss is not happy with your presence anymore, if the sales are going down, if there is a need to fire some employees, if the corporation is not happy, or if different financial circumstances dictate it (which happens all the time), then you’ll find yourself on the way of becoming an unemployment statistic..
Real job security & financial freedom, is owning & building your own business..
I’m stating these facts to you today not to make everything look bad & lead you to lose hope in life; that is not what I do. In fact, the salary-waged jobs are the ones that have been making millions of lives bad and hopeless throughout the past decades & few centuries; and if you’re anything like me, you know deep inside your heart and mind, that there must be a better way to conduct life than what we are taught in schools and through our collective consciousness which has been shaped and refined by the ones who benefit from enslaving us.
I’m telling you this because when you go to a doctor and ask him/her to find you a solution for the pain that you have been suffering from lately, the first thing the doctor does is diagnosis: Identifying the reason of the pain in order to easily eradicate it. This is what you need to do before doing anything else. Realize that working to someone else today is a form of slavery, wake up to this truth & you’re already half way far from building the life of your dreams.
The only true success that exists is when we find a way to make a living doing exactly what we want. When you wake up every day being able to shape your day the way you want it to be, that’s the only definition of success. & unless you are at this position, you still have some work & planning to do.
Once you’re strong enough to beat your cognitive dissonance about this topic & ready to make some changes, here are the steps that you need to follow in order to shape your dream life because you deserve having one, just like all human beings do.
If you’re not working in a slave job yet or if you’re thinking about having one, then try to avoid doing so as much as you can. If you can’t find any better way to have some money for a while to survive in such an expensive world, it is then very understandable for you to rush to what they call the jobs’ marketplace & try to get a job as soon as possible. It is not a bad thing to have a job for a certain amount of time to get your dream life up & running because after all you’ll need some minimal initial startup capital in order to make your dream life come into existence, but just don’t be a slave. Meaning don’t plan to keep working in your slave job forever & start taking the necessary steps in order to quit your job as soon as possible. If you don’t know what exact steps you should take, stay with me for a moment because you’ll know everything you need by the end of this.
The worst mistake that you can do if becoming financially independent is your goal, is to get yourself in debts & increase your liabilities (a.k.a expenditures) in a way that is equal or higher than what you make in your slave job. I know society sometimes pushes people to live above their own means in order to keep their dignity & respect in front of others, but if you are a smart person, you know that you can postpone much of the luxuries you may get yourself in debts for today in order to have a better life in the near future.
There are some steps that you’ll need to go through if you’re serious about creating your financial freedom. The first step to quitting your slave job & creating the life you’ve always dreamed about is getting a clear picture of your life’s purpose. What were you born to do? What makes you happy? If money wasn’t an issue, what would you do with your life? What are your passions & what makes you feel fulfilled & satisfied?
Once the answers to these questions form a clear image in your mind, step 2 is imagining, creating, or aligning yourself with a product, service, or any marketable aspect that is connected to your purpose.
Don’t be automatic while going through these two steps but rather open yourself up to as many aspects as possible.
Just for instance, if your true passion is football; always has been & always will be. You just love watching, playing, & talking about football & it is the thing that makes you happy the most in this world. Then your step 1 is complete. Step 2, you’ll need to think about a marketable aspect of this concept (which is football) & see which one appeals to you the most: Do you want to open your own shop that sells football related tools & cloths? Do you want to design Tifos & T-shirts for the supporters of a specific team that you like & sell your products in the open market? Do you feel like writing about football & want to start your own website or blog about a specific niche surrounding it? Do you want to start a magazine about your favorite team or competition? Are you good at predicting the outcomes of football games & want to create a website that gives betting tips to sports gamblers? Are you a skillful football player and want to teach your skills to others through videos or training programs? Do you want to write books about the subject? Do you think you can sell already made products and services that are related to your passion & start generating commissions?
How would you most like to express your passion, & how can you use it to enrich, inspire, empower, & add value to others as well as yourself?
Once your vision is clear, Step 3 is to get yourself free of all debts.
If you quit your slave job, but still owe money to the bank or anyone else, then you are no less of a slave.
So it is crucial to pay off all your debts, & don’t take on anymore. (Unless you take business loans in the future)
In order to do so, you must make sure your monthly expenditures remain lower than your income from your slave job. If your expenditures are too high, you must thriftily cut corners so that you can always stay in the clear & have some savings from each month. Your monthly income minus your monthly expenditures equals how much money will be allocated to pay off you debts. Treat this task as a priority especially knowing that paying ahead on the principle instead of paying the monthly minimum can exponentially cut down the interests due & you’ll eventually give up less money to pay off your debts.
Once you are debts-free, Step 4 is to start saving the difference between your monthly income & monthly expenditures. You will need to save up enough money to cover two important costs: the first one is your startup cost for your own entrepreneurial business which you can initially just approximately guess; the second one is a safety net to fall back on if something unpredictable happens, which most of the times will. To calculate your startup costs, add up all the costs that you’ll need to pay in order to have your product, service, or yourself exposed to the open market. This includes things like tools, materials, shipping, rentals, consultations, transportation, advertising, & any other expenses necessary for your own case.
While in the saving phase, this the perfect time to start your business. If you quit your job first, & start your business, then you leave on the table the probability of your business not being able to generate enough money to sustain you. Since building a reliable & sustainable income from your own business usually takes some time. So essentially, you might need to work two jobs for a while: your slave job from 9 to 5, & your dream job from 5 to 9, & make sure your get enough sleep in between. The one thing that you need to put all your focus on, no matter what the nature of your business is, is to promote & advertise enough in the beginning in order to create & build a loyal customer base. This step can feasibly take between few months to few years depending on how much seriousness you’re ready to give to your dream & how many shortcuts can you manage to take while making your first entrepreneurial steps.
Advertising & self-promotion, is usually the most difficult, most time-consuming & money-consuming part of growing a successful business, but it is also the most important one, because without finding some reliable & effective advertising methods, you will never secure a stable customer base.
Once you start generating results, the FINAL STEP to financial freedom is growing the monthly income from your business until it exceeds your monthly expenses. When you make all the money you need to sustain yourself solely from your business, then you’re ready. It’s time to quit your slave job & get ready for your dream life.
Life is so beautiful to be wasted to advance someone else’s career & let down your own. It is good to care for others but it is immoral for others to take advantage of you to advance their own companies & corporations. You are never paid what you really deserve when you’re working to someone else, & even though I don’t know you & this is probably the first time we ever interact, I love you from the bottom of my heart & I want you to be happy because you deserve it.
When people tell me that there are just not enough good jobs out there, or when governments & corporations act like their economic saviors by creating jobs for us, I can’t help but laugh, as the fact of the matter is: there are, have always been, & will always be just as many jobs as there are people in this world. If you have two functioning arms & half a brain, then there will always be a job that you can do. What the corporations & the governments won’t tell you is that it is up to you to create your own job. Find your own niche-passion, add value to the market, & that’s the reality of job creation.
Being employed is being a slave. So don’t worry about the rising numbers of unemployment that you see on TV. In a perfect world, every single person will be unemployed, & unemployable, because they’ll already be making an income doing exactly the work that they love.
I found out about my passion, it is simply using the Internet to make a better life for myself, my family, & as many people as I can. I already helped hundreds of average people achieve complete financial freedom following simple & precise steps, & I’m looking forwards to add more value to more people as I’m going forwards in this exciting adventure called life. I always advise others to use the Internet because it is the best shortcut that you can take in order to have your own business up & running very quickly & effectively. It is the biggest and most free marketplace of all times & promoting yourself or your business in it is extremely easy & highly efficient. It is also here to stay & it can never be erased or shut down, as by its definition: Internet is a bunch of computers & servers connected with each other & you will need to destroy every last computer in the world in order to shut it down, which is in all means totally impossible. An online business is also the less costly business type to have ever existed, & with the ever-growing competition, better solutions are introduced to the marketplace in a daily basis. Internet is a heaven for anyone who is serious about shifting his/her life from the traditional collective view of how income can be generated, to the entrepreneurial one which dictates that you are the master of your destiny & if you want something so bad, you can achieve it through hard work & persistence.
If you want me to help you succeed & become financially independent by getting you fully up & running in a matter of weeks to months using the power of Internet, feel free to visit my website or send me an email or a text by using my contact information which you will also find on my website.
I wish you the best in this wonderful life. Take care & always keep your head up to the sky, because you are a human being, & this is really the greatest of all honors.
Bye Bye.
Build your own business and start to multiply your income source.
exactly :)
