Do Something

So the little creep, ahem, George the little kitty, sucker-punched the Chihuahua and sent her flying. I mean this kitten is a firm believer in the concept, “Do Something”. Actually, more people should take a hint from George and do something. Anything! Now George he likes to live dangerously. I mean he thrives on ambushing the big cat, Elisha and three chihuahuas. The funny thing is, he usually succeeds. Now really, what have George and a bunch of pets have to do with anything important? I mean, who has time to waste watching this silliness?

Well, after many years of working as a police officer, I now work from home and get to observe the things I used to miss by being gone. OMG! You say, it’s one of those work from home scams. Let me reassure you; I work with a company that specializes in helping people earn some extra income on their own schedule. A company that is accredited by the Better Business Bureau (BBB), and has been around and doing business for over twenty-five years. Some people have a bad taste in their mouth over work from home opportunities. And yes, that makes it harder for the legit work from home opportunities. Most people seem to have the umbrella drink syndrome. You know the commercial thing where they sit around on the beach with a drink that has a little umbrella stuck in it, and are supposed to be making money.

Residual income is a great thing. Its money you earn for work you do one time, without having to do the work over and over again. The key is, you must work to get it started. A four letter word that so many people are running from. A word that requires that you follow the words of the thirty-second President, Franklin D. Roosevelt: “Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.” The same applies to many things in life, including working from home. Just ‘do something’ is the concept of a work from home business. And if what you are doing works, keep on doing the same activities. And if it doesn’t get you the results you want, do something different.

Just remember that a work from home business is not a JOB. You become your own boss, and determine whether you succeed or not. Don’t expect someone else to do the work for you. So like little George, do something! And while you’re thinking of what to do, you might like a little treat. My friend Barbara Burditt shared a recipe with us that she found in the Tulsa World, and the wife said I should share it with you.
