Hi
Welcome to you if you have found my blog. I apologise if the blog page isn't that exciting at the moment but this is the first day of my first blog. So what's this all about, well let me tell you a bit about me. I am 40, 41 in a few months time. I've worked hard for the last 22 years for the same public sector organisation and enjoy my job............OK most of the time I enjoy it. But I have decided to change my life, call it a mid life crisis, but for the last 2-3 years I just can't help thinking there is more to life than working a 40-50 hour week, being answerable to someone else all the time and sometimes feeling you're just a number!!! Sound familiar.
I've been looking at different ways to do this, have brought a few properties to supplement my pension and over the last few months have been thinking about the Internet. Now I, like many people, am a bit of a procrastinator and like to see things work before taking any action. In fact if I'm honest the action part often gets lost in the living bit.
Any how to cut a long story short I have taken action. Now some may say I've been foolish but for me I have been offered the opportunity of a life time.
So I've decided to share my journey with anyone who wants to follow and I'm now setting up my own Internet business. I have set myself goals over the next few years and one of those is to retire within 3-4 years time. This will involve paying off my very large mortgage, earning a good wage and leaving my day to day job to do the things I want to do.
I have no experience whatsoever, in fact this is my first ever blog. I'm no whizz kid and have no qualifications to write home about but I do possess an inner desire to change my life and take action.
If anyone reading this is saying oh I'd love to do that then please, please, please go read The Secret, look for The Rich Dad Poor Dad series and the many others who have written about how to understand how your mind is the most powerful thing you possess, but most of all believe in yourself and the power of your own imagination.
I will post every few days and let you know how I'm going, at the moment I want to run before I can walk and am excited, scared and a little confused about websites, Internet speak and the prospect of changing my life forever.
I have thought about the prospect of changing my life a lot. My whole life has been work hard at school, get a good job, work hard, pay off your mortgage and retire.........oh and then start living!! I've had a great life but know there's more.
My thought for today is from Dr Joe Vitale " You can have, do, or be anything you want".
