Deciding to make money from home requires a shift! A shift in the way you view work, and on a deeper level a shift in the way you view yourself. Everything starts from within! Your motivation to change the way you make a living is your source of energy. It is your inner motivation that sparks your imagination and it is your imagination that opens your eyes to new income opportunities.

In this article we will review the strongest motivations behind people's decisions to explore moneymaking opportunities on the Internet. Being aware of your true motivations is important because when you know why you want something, you have a much better chance of achieving it. To make it brief and to the point: Clarity of mind is strength in action!

Let's begin! There are three main reasons to turn to the Internet for making money from home.

Financial Agony

We call financial agony the torment of having a job, getting a monthly paycheck but not being able to cover your personal or family expenses. You work as much as you can but your overdraft just grows and your quality of life is slowly eroding. You are going down and you don't know how to stop it! It looks like your fate has decided to crush you every day a little bit more, making life difficult and bitter for you and your loved ones. You don't understand how it happened to you but you are on the path to poverty.

Such a financial crisis can happen when a new child is born and you can't face the financial implications of your growing family. It should be a joy but it has turned out to be a hardship. It can also happen to people who have lost their job because they suddenly got ill or were fired or for any other reason that caused them to lose their financial resource to maintain a decent living.

You have a choice here: Accepting that your fate is sealed, or deciding to change it!

Deciding to change your fate involves raising your chin up high and being committed to finding a financial alternative that can rescue you from the dead end you are now experiencing. You realize that making money online can be just for you! You still don't know how to do it but you know that something can be done. The Internet is full of opportunities. Why not explore them?

Time Kidnapping

Time is a very precious asset. In the hectic world we live in, we find that we have less and less time for the people we love, the activities we enjoy, and for ourselves. Time kidnapping reflects a situation where people and things you love have been kidnapped from your life. You no longer have real time for anyone you love or anything you enjoy.

The issue here isn't a lack of money. Your monthly salary may be O.K. but your schedule is overcrowded! You work 12+ hours a day, 5 days a week, you bring work home and very often you work on your weekends too. Most of the time you feel tired and are frustrated to spend so little time with your family and friends. How long can you continue this way?

Time kidnapping means you aren't in control of your life. Life is elsewhere and you are missing it. You feel stuck between your need to make a living and your need for free time. In fact, what you want is both money and free time. Your greatest wish is to solve this dilemma and blend together the essential pieces of your life.

Making money from home and working online can be a sweet dream here. Why not consider how you can make it a reality?

Doing More with Yourself

This third kind of motivation is different. It's not about money or free time or both of them together. It's about you! You may have a decent salary and your time is acceptably balanced between your work and your family but you are still looking for something else. In this case, you want money but not for money's sake alone! You need free time but not only to have fun with your loved ones. What you want is to do something on your own! Doing something you can be proud of, overcoming your own challenge and saying "It may not be very big and it's far from being perfect, BUT I did it by myself!"

Doing more with yourself means refusing to give up on your dreams. Your drive here is a deep-rooted feeling that you haven't accomplished what you are capable of and the time has come to start doing it. Your ambition may not be to become a new Bill Gates. You just want to be a man or woman who takes full responsibility of his/her life and decide to live it to the fullest. You are thrilled by a sense of accomplishment that tells you "You can do better and you deserve more!"

*****

If you are considering making money from home, first ask what your real motives are: Do you need money? Do you lack free time? Do you want to accomplish more? All of the above?

Whatever it is, your motivation will give you the strength and energy to explore new avenues and not to give up when you face obstacles to realizing your dreams. My recommendation here would be to be very aware of your motives and to be committed to your dreams. It's the source of energy that will pave your way to success. It begins inside.
