This article is all about you.

But it’s going to tell you a lot about me. Let me explain:

On a daily basis I am asked to contribute to the latest “How to Make Money Online” book. Sometimes the requests are a little odd.

The other day I was asked to write a couple pages about what my “typical day” looks like. I thought the request was interesting—but I never realized how much it would say about why you MUST have an internet business of your own.

So, I began looking at how I spend my days. (Stick with me here, you’ll see my point in just a second…)

I get up between 4:30 and 5am. I don’t use an alarm (haven’t for 20 years), It’s just when I get up.

I go for a walk, spend some time in spiritual contemplation, drink some coffee.

About 7am I turn on the news, eat some breakfast, plan out my day. I shower and dress then I am off to the office by 8am.

When I get to the office (it’s close, sometimes I walk), I spend the first 15 minutes or so talking to my assistant Annette about what work needs to be accomplished that day. Then I get to work.

I try to study and write in the mornings, wrapping up by 11am. A few days a week I go to the gym at 9:30 or so, then back to work at 11.

I usually eat lunch at my desk.

Afternoons I spend on the phone or accomplishing the various tasks I need to get done on a daily basis. Occasionally a client will stop by the office for an appointment. I spend about an hour per day dealing with emails.

Around 4:30pm I check in with my part-time people and make sure they know what they need to accomplish.

I leave to get home by 5pm.

We’re remodeling our farm, so most evenings each week I spend painting, sanding, installing and hitting my thumb with a hammer.

So why is this important to you? Simple:

I think my day sounds much like a typical work day for many people. But, there is one glaring difference: I am doing exactly what I want to do every day.

I want to have an office, but I don’t have to. I could work at home if I chose to.

I don’t have to get up at 5am. In fact, some days I don’t. But it is what I want to do most days.

I’m not required to have employees. Or to work from 8am to 5pm. Or to work much at all.

But I enjoy what I do almost every day.

Not only that, but I have a bundle of other perks you would enjoy as well:

I don’t owe anyone a dime. My business has more than paid for everything I do, everything I own.

I take vacations whenever I feel like it. We usually go as a family for a week or so every three months. We take an extended weekend trip to the mountains or a big city (weez country folks…) about once a month.

My time is my own. If I don’t feel like doing something, I don’t do it. I stay home when I want to, work when I want to, play when I want to.

I have real security. My income is not dependent upon the whims of a boss or company.

I get to buy my family the “toys” they want, not just the necessities.

But here is the most important perk of all:

I have peace of mind.

There are tens-of-thousands of people just like me—and there’s no reason why you can’t be in your own peaceful, prosperous place. If you would like to see how others are doing it, go to:
