Fire Your Boss And Go To Work

You may already be skeptical of the title of this Article. It’s really a big thing just to read the title and not hold yourself off from rolling your eyes over. But, have you considered the benefits? And the possibilities if it was actually possible?  Yes, to look your boss straight in the eyes and fire him.

Before you continue reading, take a minute to consider how this will feel.

Seriously speaking, these are livelihoods, households, and cash at stake here. As such, the idea of firing your boss can be a scary one. And rightfully so, because, this is not something for the fainthearted.

But, I believe it’s a worthy risk to take. If you made it this far in this article, chances are you are have seriously considered doing this at one point or another.  However, let’s not dwell on doubts. Rather, let’s take a quick look at some things that show that you need to fire your boss.

This article is definitely for you if…

  • You are tired of always searching the list of employment websites because you can’t wait to change jobs… Again!
  • You are simply too stressed out by our current boss
  • You’ve been dying to know how it feels to enjoy going to work each day.
  • Your career is too important to you to live to another person’s discretion.
  • Your current level of influence at work feels woefully inadequate.
  • You are open to other ways of getting your much-deserved recognition for the quota contributed to work.

What experts are saying

Don’t give up on me just yet.

“Occasionally in life, there are those moments of unutterable fulfillment which cannot be completely explained by those symbols called words. Their meanings can only be articulated by the inaudible language of the heart.” – Martin Luther King Jr

In the words of Martin Luther King Jnr, you can see that it’s not your bank account or people’s opinion of you that dictate your inner peace and satisfaction. Many are the people who work seemingly great jobs for very enviable pays.  But are pretty much stressed up, depressed, and filled with anxiety.

Why?

All because they not following the simple and honest passion their heart yearns for. Many live all their lives in their heads. Dreaming of great things and planning fits they want to achieve but never come around to take action. Just because of one simple fact.

I will someday

Wishing and hoping for the perfect day and time, when everyone and everything in the universe has aligned for you is the single biggest reason most people never take action. As a popular but anonymous quote says:

“Don’t wait for the perfect moment. Take the moment and make it perfect.” –  Unknown

 So, if you waiting for the perfect moment to start living your dreams. Then you will be waiting a long time. Instead, what you can do is make the decision today. After all, things will not change unless you make the move to change them.

But, if you feeling reluctant then why not focus on the hassle involved in optimizing your résumé, search for a new job after another, stressful and nerve-racking interviews, evaluation and comparison of pays and benefits. Am sure these should give you enough motivation to want to take action.

Let’s face it:

It’s a great feeling to start a new job. But in such fast-paced world, today’s new is tomorrow’s old. And even though you get to restart the clock, make new friends and encounter new challenges and experiences.

 It’s only a matter of time before the mind-numbing grind of the repetitive daily routine sets in. Then, the all too familiar old feelings return and you beginning looking for something new again.

The Barter Trade

Most people don’t really know what is going on. Not at a conscious level anyway. On daily cases, they make an exchange of a sturdy paycheck for boring and predictability.

This is what the trade-off looks like:

Boss, you keep supplying me with a sturdy, predictable paycheck, social security, health insurance, somewhat interesting tasks to work on, end-of-year parties, lunch breaks and bonuses. And I will surrender to you my will, my intellect, time, my security, my freedom of choice, my sleep and future plans.

Don’t worry

There is light at the end of this long dark tunnel that I’ve led you. And the light comes in the form of5 ways you can engage yourself today and get out your job to work for yourself; be your own boss.

  • Go Freelance

You would be surprised the amount of money you can make employing in-born skills and connections these days. So are you very good at writing, graphic designing, web development?

Then you can make some real cash selling your skills directly to people who would hire you by the hour.

Or maybe you in need of some quick cash, then capitalize on your huge flock of Twitter followers and do some paid tweets for a client. Really, you would be surprised what people are willing to for on the internet these days.

The possibilities are endless and there are no limits to the amount of clients you can get. So take the time to build a reputation with your customers. And you can make even twice your current full-time income from home, if not more.

Sites like 99designs, Freelancer.com, Fiverr, etc; provide just the right platform for clients and employers to post jobs, projects, and gigs.

Personally, I have used the services of freelancers on such site to design a logo and complete some projects, and I paid good money too. So, I know what am talking about when I say people are making good money freelancing online.

  • Start a Blog

Blogging is like the gold rush of our times. Don’t believe me? Yes, I know I sound just like many guys online preaching the same message. But please trust me, the profits of starting a blog are worth all the efforts you will put into it.

Many think of a blog the wrong way. Basically, they think a blog is a website site where someone gets to write periodic articles about their life and experience. Whilst, this may not be entirely false, it isn’t entirely true either.

And I will tell you why in a minute

Certainly, there will be a lot of intersections in what you write on the wrong and your life, but blogging involves a lot more than that. Even more so when it comes to monetizing a blog.

When you start a blog for business reasons, you are immediately in the business of providing value to people through your business (blog). Help people solve problems in their lives by providing insight, solutions and so much more.

And yes, at times, this means talking about yourself.

Adding affiliate marketing, the need to create products, fulfilling orders and managing customers is totally eliminated. Along with monetary transactions needed to be associated with running a full-time business.

A blog takes out all these hurdles but helps you keep all the monetary benefits.

Not to say that it’s just this easy, there is quite a lot more to it. If you really interested in making money from blogs, then visit the wealthy Affiliate or read this post on job niche affiliate program.

There you will find everything you will need to kick-start a successful blog as a business.

  • Become a Virtual Assistant

People need help, be it the child or old woman trying to cross the street or the wealth business executive with no time to organize his affairs by himself.  Luckily, many are more are willing to pay for help these days.

Be it the entrepreneur with his work from home business or all manner of people in the business world with full-time jobs. Virtual Assistants come in handy to make lives easier for such people.

Even as you are reading this article, these people are looking and ready to ditch out good cash to find the correct person. As a matter of fact, they are looking and willing to pay some good money for it too.

Again with sites like Fiverr, it is becoming a piece of cake to find people looking for help with simple tasks like organizing, managing schedules and etc.

Amazing this, you are required to commute. You just have to relax in the comfort of your home. And, with some discipline and commitment to deadlines, you complete simple task and see real money roll into your Skill, PayPal account or by direct deposit.

But if you be one to like it the old school way of check in the mailbox, then please be my guest.

It really all depends on you and your preferences. Is this freedom or what?

  • Do Product Reviews

Ever watch a YouTube video of a guy reviewing the latest phones maybe the iPhone X or the Google Pixel 2. And am sure you’ve asked yourself what they get from spending their time making these videos.

Well, fact is, they make a ton of money from this videos. Yes, a simple product review, be it a written article or a YouTube video. Actually, product reviews are the main source of income for many people online.

When you think of it, it’s just like blogging in that, it also requires affiliate marketing and great website. According to more experienced online marketers and entrepreneur, it works best when the two are put together.

So, for a win/win situation, a blog on say electronic gadgets like mobile phones can incorporate different product reviews of several benchmark products and make a huge killing in profit. Thereby killing two birds with one stone.

Good knowledge of Search Engine Optimization, keywords, Google Adwords and etc is however very crucial to such online endeavors. Hence, I advise you start looking into such topic seriously.

  • Start an Online Business

As you may know, there really no end to the types and numbers of business you can start online these days. It actually a matter of interest and expertise. Because if anything at all, you need to have a level of passion for your business else you only quit when things get tough.

At least that’s what Steve Jobs said.

The main issue here is control. Control over your destiny, time and future.

Among the long list of options, you will consider when starting an online business are, the most common is creating a digital product. And selling it online. Similar option include drop shipping, starting e-commerce site for different product like Amazon.

All these options had the potential of seeing profits soaring through the roof and catapulting you into unimaginable wealth. If you don’t believe me, then go read the story of Amazon’s Jeff Bezos or eBay.

However, managing and running a business is no child’s play. And since the online arena is open to the whole world with different time zones, you can easily find yourself working and over working at very odd times.
