It’s such a funny thing. When I was working in my cushy corporate office job (I say “cushy” loosely as my last job was JUST like the movie Office Space) , I used to wonder what it would be like to be at home with my kids. I imagined myself pulling out my hair and running from the house screaming with my suitcases packed.

And while there have been days when I’ve felt like packing up my suitcases (and many days when I’ve yelled out “Calgon, take me away!” Yes, I finally understand those old-school commercials…), all-in-all, I feel like this is what I’m meant to be doing.

Now, this isn’t meant to bash anyone who works and loves it. And it’s not meant to praise stay at home moms either.

No, what’s more important, in my opinion, is that you find what makes YOU happy. Because when you’re happy, your whole house is happy. And THAT is when you can really create a more positive environment with your kids.

When I was working, I didn’t really enjoy it. Even though I was good at what I did, I knew it wasn’t the right environment for me. And because of that, I stressed out and caused my family lots of unnecessary stress as well.

Now that I’m home, we’re all pretty calm and happy for the most part. Things are MUCH less stressful, and I can focus on positive parenting.

I am grateful to have this time at home with my kids. They’re only young once, and I am SO happy that I didn’t miss out on more than I did. I really want to thank a community I belong to for steering me in the right direction.

The site is called Wealthy Affiliate, and it’s a training center and community for affiliate marketers. Affiliate marketing is like my dream job. Some people are born to sing. I feel like I was born to share ideas, thoughts, opinions and solutions online. And Wealthy Affiliate has helped train me to do that in the most fun, enlightening and ethical way.

In case you’re dissatisfied with where you currently are in your career, and in case you’d prefer to spend more time with your family, then you may want to check out Wealthy Affiliate. I feel like I could go on and on about the tools, training and support there, but this post is already SO long! LOL.

If you’re at all interested in making a living online, then I would highly suggest just clicking on the link. You don’t have to go any further if you’re not comfortable, or if you feel this isn’t something right for you. My wish is that everyone in this world follow their bliss and follow what feels good to THEM. But at least click the link and see what it’s about and see if it’s something that you feel good about.

I know I hesitated for so long to click that link. But I am SO glad I did now. :)
