Had you lived 100 years ago, it would have been much harder for you (practically impossible) to earn your own money from home as a Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Fibromyalgia sufferer.
BUT!!!
Today, we Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia sufferers are lucky enough to live in the age
of the Internet - where knowledge is power. Information, information, information. THAT's what people want.
So how does that apply to you?
Well, as I wrote in the 'Focus Your Light: Earning Money From Home When You Have CFS/FM' article in Issue #001, you live in a day and age where you have great opportunities to work from home using you.computer and the Internet.
As I wrote in that article, everyone knows something about something...
...including YOU!
SIDE NOTE If you haven't read the Focus Your Light: Earning Money From Home When You Have CFS/FM' article, then I thoroughly recommend that you take a look at it.
You can check it out in Issue #001 here:
sleepydust.net/issue-001 SIDE NOTE
Find a topic that you LOVE (or at least are passionate about). Something that you find INTERESTING. Then your 'work' will become 'play' because it will be on a topic that you enjoy!
So what are you going to do once you've found your topic?
You start your own money-making website.
Claire watches as everyone runs and hides.
Come back!
It's not as scary as you might think! I wouldn't suggest it otherwise! At least give me a chance to explain!
Running your own website gives you THE BEST chance of making AS MUCH money as you want.
Why?
Because one of your website's primary jobs is to ATTRACT VISITORS - lots of them. And once you've done that, all YOU have to do is choose how you will 'monetize' it!
I'll be explaining the different ways that you can make money from your website in later issues.
What's more, you can work when you want, for how long you want, wherever you want!
Okay, now there are quite a few myths about running your own website that I'd like to put straight at this point...
-
MYTH 1. Websites are expensive.
WRONG! Websites can be as cheap or as expensive to create and run as you want them to be!
You can actually run your own website for $0 if you want to. Plenty of people do.
So you don't actually need to spend ANY money to start your own website if you don't want to.
-
MYTH 2. You need to be .computer programmer to run your own website.
WRONG! You don't need to know AN.computer programming languages at all, if you don't want to!
These days, building your own website is so easy that you don't even need to know an.computer mumbo jumbo at all!
-
MYTH 3. Learning to program your own website is difficult.
WRONG! It takes less than 24 hours to learn how to program your own website! I learnt the basics of programming websites in ONE day, and was ready to build my own website within 2 days!
If you do want to program your own website, then the programming language you need to learn is called 'html' - it's very basic, and VERY simple.
It's THAT easy that even kids can do it!
So don't be fooled by the myth! Programming your own website is easier than you think!
OK, so my point is that you CAN have your own money-making website. And it's easier than you think. It's very achievable!
Think about it this way - if it was THAT difficult to build and run your own website, then why are there so many millions of webmasters out there? They surely can't ALL be rocket scientists!
Point taken?
Good. :)
So what are you waiting for then?...
