Back To Work The Monday After Christmas?

Hello, Duane Hatfield here. Are you going back to work the Monday after Christmas? I’m sorry, today is the Monday after Christmas here in the United States but I’m NOT going to WORK. I do work but I’m here at home working my business.

In the past, I’d go back to work like everyone else, but now I don’t. After years of struggling with the routine and grind of public employment I found an opportunity that put an end to it.

It’s so great to be in a situation where I work for myself and reap the benefits of it instead of making someone else rich.

My position was always the same, I had to be there when they scheduled me, do what they told me to do and OBEY the rules they set. It was all about the company and their advancement. I was replaceable and they wouldn’t hesitate if they wanted to.

But that all changed the day I found the best business I had ever seen. I have tried many others before, from selling soap to health products, but none of these worked. I spent so much money on PRODUCTS and never made enough profit to even count it as profit. I contacted friends and family and everyone I could find to push my stuff on. I became ashamed to see people I’d talked to and they dreaded seeing me because they knew what was coming.

This opportunity is so different, I knew from the beginning I could learn to do this and succeed in it. There is so much training, the technical items are already in place, and even people who aren’t my coaches are available and willing to help. They all share their experiences and tell what procedures work for them. I have contact with all the top producers and even the company executives. Nothing is left to chance and the direction I chose to apply it still depends on me, follow the leaders and use my own abilities to accomplish it.

So as you go back to work today, be safe and enjoy it. Just remember when your ready to leave the rat race, there will be a place here for you, where you can enjoy the fruit of your own labors. When you’re ready to change your life follow the link below and come join me.

Favorite Christmas movies - Back when us kids were young (my parents had 3), my mom, sister and I would watch White Christmas every Christmas. (My dad and brother were never interested.) Now the rest of the family is scattered, and only I live close to my parents. We got away from the tradition, but now my mom and I watch [i:1h8kfk2v]White Christmas[/i:1h8kfk2v] again. (Just as every Halloween we watch Arsenic and Old Lace.) I also like the 1970 musical [i:1h8kfk2v]Scrooge[/i:1h8kfk2v], starring Albert Finney, much better than any version done since! I do have to say I've never liked[i:1h8kfk2v] It's A Wonderful Life[/i:1h8kfk2v]. He spends all his life having his hopes and dreams shattered, feeling miserable, and its only at the end of his life that he can look back and realize how many friends he has, etc. But that doesn't change the fact that up until that point he was miserable!
Being generous has its rewards! - My friend wants to go around the streets on Christmas night giving homeless people $20 bills. Maybe I'll tell him to start a fundraiser, find a few sponsors and hold an event instead? It could be for everyone who don't have a families to be with during Christmas? They can all get together on Christmas day and have some fun and get to know each other. (sort of like a little family?) It probably sounds better in theory though, lol.
Re: Moderators on vacation - Off on my Christmas holidays with my family later today! Actually, we are flying to England and have been watching BBC World News reports about Heathrow struggling to cope with the snow... Hope the trains manage to run on Christmas Eve... I probably won't appear on the forum very often until around 5th January, DV... Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everybody! David H
Re: Cyber Monday - Never heard of Cyber Monday. But if Monday is the best time to buy things onlin, then a lot of people will be shopping on Moday
Re: Time-Management Success Story! - @Michelle @Trent I know what you mean! On Monday I had four key objectives to achieve. I didn't write them down - they were so strongly impressed in my noddle that I didn't need to! Perhaps keeping things simple and urgent is the key... Yesterday was a reasonably successful day, but not half as productive as Monday. Productivity always takes a dive when I have two classes to teach in two different parts of town at two different times of day (lunch time/evening)!
