How to challenge negativity when working for yourself By Mia Valentina
Today's Blog Post is an excerpt from my motivational self-help book I am writing. Its about working for yourself and self worth.
In the excerpt I explain what I did to challenge the negative thoughts and comments I would receive when ever I said I worked for myself to family or friends.
Click here to see how you can also get past these problems when you have your own business. Empower yourself by working for you!
Good Luck!

Multiple Streams of Income
In an effort to bring Money in the house while looking for jobs for two adults and a work age teen, I have found non conventional ways that work.
For instance, my youngest daughter participates in a vitamin research study at a prominent local hospital to cover the cost of her monthly cell phone bill. During the winter, me and my girls register as personal shoppers, so we get paid while we do Holiday shopping. Those are definite win-wins.
Although these aren't conventional jobs, you can still earn atleast minimum wage for a few hours of doing something you already do. If you do the math, you really make more than minimum wage and you don't have to work a full day.

20 jobs by 40
Now that I've reached a certain stage of maturity and wisdom, I look back on all the jobs that I've had since the age of 14; It's more than 20.
I assumed that by the time I reached this age, I would know what I want to be and be it by now. I never thought about the economy, the recession, the dot com bubble-boom-bust etc.
Truthfully, growing up a foster kid I've always done what others told me, just to please others. When I was told to "get a real job", I would stop marketing and promoting and working for myself, and look for a "real job". In reality, it was always an out of body experience, eventually I would quit because I didn't enjoy the work or the compensation. In actuality some of my favorite jobs were the ones where I barely broke even, or only received a stipend and carfare.
"I now realize it doesn't matter how much money it pays if you feel like a slave." I'm not trying to make others happy by doing what they want me to do. Instead I'm discovering myself and my hearts desire, even if it doesn't pay a dime.

Looking for a job is a job and I already have one.
After spending an entire day at the unemployment office, I am exhausted both mentally and physically. Despite the job market or the economy, looking for the right jobs to apply to is work!
As I rode Home on the bus this afternoon, I asked myself, would I quit a job I liked because of a few bumps in the road?
No.
So why then am I so anxious to quit working for myself because a few bumps in the road, or a bug or two in the programming?
When I got Home, I looked in the mirror and asked my old Boss for my job back.
