I am here to help you take control of your life and receive the benefits that you deserve to have to take care of family and yourself with living from paycheck to paycheck. You may already know the ends and out of the cruel world intended for those who already have the money and some of those people are not willing to share their “secrets” with the world. I may make a few people mad and I’m not trying to step on anybody’s toes. You just may need to be reminded what you might have forgotten once you started your new career or got married and had children.
People that have money, have money because it all started with an “idea”. Some have failed and others have succeeded because they were determined to get what they want when they want it. Do you want it? How bad do you want it?
60 percent of women are highly qualified and have careers that are nonlinear. There would be no need to take detours and side roads to get the career you desire. But people do. More women are going back to school for more degrees, going back to school from serving as a full time mom or coming out of retirement. It’s usually not all about careers. It’s also about spending your money wisely and cautiously. Sure! You hear of people winning the lottery; but stop and think a 1.5 ratio of people win on the first play. Several others play for years and then might win something.
But you can’t spend your entire life wishing on lottery. Think about this: for those that play the lottery, your money actually goes in the pot that builds the lottery. Not to get off track.
You career/job vs. your dream. You can turn you dream into reality. What is your dream? Whatever your dream is, set aside a savings to build on your dream. (First things first).
You don't have to quit your job, as much as you desire to but you want to save enough to be able to have capital and give a good time notice to when you build your business.
Look into the business you want to get into, and study. Find a mentor, or a close friend who may have the ins and outs of what you are looking for. If you are computer illiterate, there are classes that will teach you how to work on the computer. It’s of that age that computers are necessary.
It’s easy to get a business license, but you never jump head first into what you want to do, you’ll lose more money that way if you are not up on the latest details of that business. Going back to having capital. This is what you need to get started. The reason for the capital is: the first year of business will be slow and you’ll need something to live off of. Let us not forget the importance of handling the business well. Get the right people to back you. So you must reinvent yourself.
Example: by changing the ending of what you like or what you are.

Watch you spending habits. (At the end I will also five you steps to take with your spending habits, no matter the situation). You must be patient. Changing careers or setting your goals in action doesn’t happen over night. It takes a lot of determination and hard work. I will not sugarcoat it. It isn’t easy, but if you have the heart you can do it.
I know because it took me 10 years to get where I am today. And trust me, you will be extremely happy in the end. You’ve always heard that you should take out 10% for yourself. People only tell you that so that you can have a bit of the piece of pie that is needed to get started with whatever you are doing. For the Bible scholars, I found something very interesting when I was going through my time of financial difficulty and I always turn to that higher power (even in the good times) I was searching for a financial plan.
We have a family Bible which give you a cyclopedia index and there it was “financial plan” In 1 Corinthians 16:2 it reads: Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God has prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come. That to me is saying that you don’t necessary have to give yourself 10% of what you earn, just as long as you save something.
Stay confident! Know within yourself that you can do anything, if you believe in what you are trying to accomplish. You may hit a few bumps in the road, but it will be well worth it. You will also run into the “nay-Sayers” These are the people who are jealous of what you are trying to accomplish and mad that they didn’t think of it first.
Then you build a strong reference network. This is where your true friends come in and say they will like to assist you. They may know someone who knows someone with a higher up. These people have to be familiar with your work. Make calls and send emails. There are over a billion people on the internet. The step is to find groups of your interest and communicate with each and every person that comes to you with a comment or question. That networking will bring in a lot of friends and you’re able to build on that new career plan.
Meet with employees and managers, ask question: How did you get into your field of work? What is it that you like about it? You’ll will find a few people who love what they do and wouldn’t mind sharing their information with you.
