As I am reading I am seeing some more additions we can make to the site in order to correctly optimize it. A great online resource is w3schools.com!! Helping me out so much!

I have been working for optometrists for years now, just feeling lost in what I wanted to do with my life. At my current place of employment I had gotten into the online marketing aspect with SEO and social media, I discovered I was really interested in it. I have been independently studying and learning how to code HTML, which you can find all online such great information how to do all of this stuff. My boyfriend is into graphic design, and branched off as a freelancer two years ago. We are planning on setting up a collaboration together in the online world. The nice thing is that you don’t have all the over head costs to rent out a space and purchase the inventory, just have to have a desire to learn.

Thanks for the added inspiration!!

Most people don’t even consider creating their own job rather than finding a job.

My parents weren’t self-employed, but my best friend’s dad was and it’s inspired me to try to create something for myself rather than take the path that’s travelled the most.

P.S. I’m a pretty new investor, What do you think about the idea of efficient markets?

“If you aren’t making money with your business, as in profit, all you have is an expensive hobby.”

Starting a business online is usually low-risk. I recently started using WordPress and it was a pain at first – trying to figure out what goes where and what the plugins are about – but now after only 2 weeks its getting a lot easier. You could pay someone to do the leg work for you, but its better to learn the basics before getting a big following.

That said, I see a lot of younger people starting to be self-employed but I notice that most have parents that are/ were self-employed. Do you think that becoming an entrepreneur is an easier step to take if your parents did the same? ie I tend to see a lot of kids of government employees become teachers etc. Are some of us just socialized to think that the only way to earn money is with a steady, guaranteed paycheck?

I wish I had done what this writer recommended when I first got out of college. Then, I wish I had done it when I was pushed out of a job I had held for nearly 16 years. Then, I wish I had done it when I got terminated for revealing my employer had violated California State Law. Alas, I went looking for a normal employer for two plus years.

Well, I have had enough of this insanity. I found a friend who is providing me with the funds to put me in business for myself. I should be doing what this article recommends…starting tomorrow! Yes, sometimes “better late than never” really is a good idea.

You don’t know what you don’t know until you know it. The amount of knowledge you gain and skills you master from starting anything is priceless. I always tell people starting out to just go for it and figure it out as you go. You have to start somewhere and you can drive yourself nuts planning and talking and never doing. Just do it already. Good luck.

I am fresh out of graduate school. I found the job market really tough to tap into, plus my qualifications didn’t line up with my lack of experience. Fortunately there is a real need for outsourced HR expertise in the startup and small business arena, so I thought I’d dive in the deep end. And deep it is.

I learn something new every single day. Last week feels like a year ago because so much has changed in a mere few days. I can’t imagine where I’ll be in a month. I don’t have clients yet, I don’t have any income, and often self doubt and fear consume my brain. However I am gaining experiences, strengths, and skills unlike I ever thought possible. I am also meeting incredible people and pushing my boundaries. It was a wonderful decision and I hope it pays off in the future.

I was really excited to read this article and I look forward to reading Greg’s blog. For other readers, if you are interested in starting your own company I recommend checking out some books by Alan Weiss and Peter Block.

Thanks, Greg!
