Motivation:
"My main motivation is helping to provide for my family. The cost of living in the Northern Virginia is extremely high and it takes two incomes for a family to enjoy more than just the basics like food, clothing, and shelter. Being available and home for my two teenage boys are all the motivation I need to work toward success in my online business," http://www.ezincomefromhome.ws.
Determination:
"I learned determination from my father, a career Navy man who raised four children along with my stay-at-home mother. It was a different world then, and it was possible for my mother to not work and tend to the home. My father was always determined to provide for us and retired from two other careers after he retired from the service. He knew what was needed and did it and never once did I hear him complain."
Self-confidence:
"As an adult, being self-confident was never an issue for me. When I first got involved with computers in 1993 I had enough confidence in myself to teach myself Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Publisher, and a variety of other programs. At the time I was doing in-home daycare so I could be with my own children and worked on the computer at night. Not once did I ever think I couldn\'t learn those programs on my own."
Resourcefulness:
"Once my boys reached school age I looked for another source of income and opened a home business selling jewelry. However, it required a lot of late nights so I looked around and found out I could make money with an online business instead. After trying a number of marketing programs that didn\'t produce the right results for me, I discovered my current online business and as they say, the rest is history!\"
