One Day it will be Time to Quit Your Day Job

Is it time to quit your day job just yet?

Your inbox is full of messages saying
"fire your boss",
"retire in a year",
"quit your day job in a month".

Sounds wonderful, yes...but is it practical at your current stage of
business experience to even hope for such a thing?

All Internet Entrepreneurs are working hard for the day
that they can happily make that transition from part-time to full time.

It will take a specific, planned, and co-ordinated chain
of events to occur---and these will have to be on a consistent basis
before that hopeful reality can be conceived.


Some ideas to consider as you near that mark of
making the transition would be to:

make sure your online income at least equals your offline (job)
income for at least 4 months consecutively,

have at least 4-6 months of your monthly living expenses
set back as a security measure,

have at least 3 months of your Internet business monthly expenses
set aside for running the business,

calculate the dollar value of any job benefits
(i.e insurance and retirement planning) that you will have
to provide for yourself as you become a full time Entrepreneur
and have to purchase these on your own.


Once you've done that, you can securely and without obstacles,
quit that day job.

Learn all you can, work it as smart and hard as you can---
and that day will eventually arrive.

Then, you can give up that job.
You can even do it with a little flair, if you like.
