Working at Home

As all of you can see, I have not made a post since last week! Now it isn't because I forgot about it but I have been one busy woman! Like I have posted earlier, I started a work at home job and the hours are long. Last week was training so it was pretty tough and tomorrow will be my first day where I am actually taking calls - EEEEEK! I am so nervous! I've been telling my boyfriend that I feel sorry for whoever gets me but with that being said I know I need to keep that confidence I had when I first accepted the position. I always leave little movtional quotes laying around (anyone else do that?) and I know this one seems simple but as my screensaver, I have "You're Awesome!" It really helps when I need to walk away from the computer because I'm either frustrated or whatever. I walk back in and I see that and I'm like "Yeah! Hell Yeah I'm Awesome!" Haha I know - I get excited over little things ;)

I really haven't done much research pertaining to work at home positions - I've simply been too busy. After work I try to get through my e-mail which averages about 50 e-mails a day - all from various survey and paid to click sites. But all those are paying off and here pretty soon I will be cashing out my points at Toluna. I already have the 60,000 points plus some but I'm trying to build it up so once I use those 60,000 points I still have quite a bit left over. Go ahead and look over my review of Toluna and see if it would something for you!

Right now in my life, everything seems very easy to do but I know this will change once school starts back up. You see I have only been taking one class but I will be tackling 3 classes (again) this summer semester. I've been seriously considering changing my major but need to do so quick - I e-mailed my college advisor and hopefully sooner than later I will get a response back. How do you handle stress and all the ups and downs of everyday life?

If anyone hasn't noticed, most of my posts have been about companies I have received money from. I try to do this so then you as the reader are not second-guessing yourself and actually know it does work. I will definitely try to put more things on here that I haven't tried or gained money off of so then in return readers can leave messages/comments about their experiences.

Well...I guess that's an update for ya. I know - it sure seems like a lot of babble but I hope someone out there gets something out of it ;)

Until next time folks!

My Work at Home Position

Well everyone my first day went GREAT!
It was a lot of information but that is typical for the first day of training.
I am not sure what I can say about it so for now it is secret except for those who know ;)

I am so happy that I finally found something that will let me stay at home and enjoy the simple luxuries in life. Thinking about how much money I am going to save with gas, food, and work clothes just astounds me. It is around $250 a month I will be saving just by working at home.

If anyone out there is feeling hopeless about their job search, please don't feel discouraged. This has been an on going search for me for about a year now and I finally found a work at home position that is really going to work for me.

Check out work at home forums such as wahm.com or workplacelikehome.com - these forums provide excellent reviews and advice and everyday there are new posting about different work at home opportunities. Also utilize my tabs on the top of the screen because these pages provide ways to earn a little cash every month that can help with everyday expenses.

Don't ever give up on yourself because you have what it takes to work successfully at home. If you are goal-oriented, strong-willed, and have the ability to excel at anything you do than you will find something to work for you.

I wish the best of luck to everyone out there who is looking for a true, legitimate work at home position. I hope this site helps a little bit and will continue to help as I get up and running.

It's Spring ... Time for Some Cleaning!

Does your desk look like a wreck? Your office?
I have to be honest - mine looks like a torando went through about everyday!
But then I realized that my clutter was hindering me.
Everytime I would walk into my office, I got tired instantly and didn't want to do anything!
Not only was my clutter affecting my ability to earn money on line but also my school.
So today I decided I would clean up my act and I have to say I am pretty pleased with myself!
I am one of those people who like to go by instructions or go order by order. 
Call me crazy but it does work, it just takes more time!
So if you are frustrated with your mess and are at your wit's end then enjoy reading!


My Cleaning Advice

1. Make a list of goals that you want to achieve by cleaning up your space. Such as "if I de-clutter my desk, I will be more productive"
2. Start with one room - don't go overboard and try to do everything at once. You'll end up burning yourself out.
3. This tip might depend on the person but I personally like to have 3 different totes on hand when I am cleaning or organizing. The 3 totes would be labeled Keep, Throw Out, and Donate. This simple procedure really helps because you can quickly throw stuff into different bins and then only have one you have to go through!
4. If you happen to come across an item that belongs to a different room, simply place the item(s) by the doorway of that particular room and go back to the room you are cleaning/organizing. Once you are finished then you can put the item in the proper place. I have noticed when I am too busy putting other things away I lose focus on the room that I really wanted to clean/organize!
5. TAKE A BREAK! If you don't you're head will explode just a forewarning! ;)
6. Make sure to congratulate yourself when the job is done. I know I feel awesome when I clean/organize and usually ice-cream or chocolate will do the trick! ;)
7. Although the appearance of your office may be holding you back, don't forget about your computer! Clear out your inbox, get rid of subscriptions you no longer read, go through your favorites! De-clutter your computer! It'll make ya feel better ;)

I really hope just this short list of advice will help those you are in desperate need of some cleaning/organizing!
Please feel free to comment some of your ideas, I always love learning about different techniques on how to make my life and the lives of others easier and clutter free!
*The cool part is that I found my digital camera so once it is charged up, I plan on taking an office pic!*
