More earthquakes in Christchurch

Today we were hit by a magnitude 5.7 quake at 1pm this afternoon, followed shortly after by a 6.3 quake at around 2:30pm.

I have just managed to clear out enough space in my home office to get to the computer.

If any warriors out there are wondering if all this work we do is worth it, I'd like to share with them some incentive. I still have a job but lots of people have lost theirs. If I had carried on doing IM way back when, I probably wouldn't need a job now. I could be relying on passive income and income generated through online marketing.

You've all heard those old adages:
J.O.B. stands for Just Over Broke
There's no U (you) in company
Job security is a myth

Getting my IM business to the point of no longer needing a job is now a huge incentive. If you have that then you can at least provide an income and look after your family and loved ones. You could move city (or a nice, sleepy country town) and not have to start all over.

We put too much value in our jobs because they seem such a safe thing and all this work we put into IM can seem to have so little return. In reality, I believe it to be the other way around. The Internet Marketing will end up being the safe thing and the job the risky venture.

Peace to all my fellow warriors. May you and your families be safe where ever you are,
Rob

  • Thoughts are with you Rob and the rest of kiwi land NZ has certainly copped a beating this year from Mother Nature. Good to see you have got a big WHY for doing what you do and I wish you all the best with it!

  • Thanks, Leanne. I'm so sorry for not spotting your response earlier. I knew the off topic forum was less frequented by many warriors (including myself) and after checking back a few times I simply gave up on expecting any replies to this.

    Wishing you all the best too!
  • I hope these are 'just' aftershocks and that there will be no more serious damage to anyone there.

    Nobody ever knows for sure so all we can do is hope.

    Stay safe.
  • Stay safe people. Hope the earthquakes won't harm anyone.
