Counting My Home Business Blessings

Kelly McCausey asked for people to blog about what they’re thankful for … what blessings they enjoy as a result of their home businesses. Here’s my partial list. I’m sure if I thought about it more I would come up with tons more!

  • The ability to be my kid’s primary caretaker is the big one.
  • I also love being able to spend my time doing what I want to do… it’s work but it’s also enjoyable.
  • I like being able to take off in the middle of the day to head to the park or take the kids out for lunch or on a field trip, and get my work done at other times. Flexibility! I can work hard while my kids are with their Dad or Grandparents, take the laptop to Barnes and Noble and sip coffee while I work, or stay up late and work when I can’t sleep. It’s my choice. I’m very self motivated and love working for myself.
  • I earn 2 1/2 times what I earned at my full time job that I left when my first kid was born.
  • And I also enjoy quite a bit of passive income which I never had before!

I’m very very thankful! What about you? What blessings has your business brought your way?

    Great post Carrie, I’m very thankful that I can stay home with the kids too.

    I’ve been home for so long now that I forget what it’s actually like to have to juggle kids and work outside the home… boy am I glad I don’t have to do that!

    Hi Carrie,

    I just followed your link from Mr. Fire’s Blog. I’m a big Vitale fan also. Like you, I’ve been studying the Attractor Factor and Hypnotic Writing. I’m confident these principles will lead to our business success.

    I don’t know what Swweetie is, though!

    By the way, I’m not a work at home mom, I’m a work at home grandmom! Cheers
