Learn How To Make More Money In Less Time - Why Working 50+ Hours Per Week Is Destroying Your Family


If you love your family, you will read this article.

Do I doubt your love for your family?

Not for a moment.

I am sure you are a person that wants to be an influence in your families life, rather than the stranger that shows up from time to time.

The reason why I make the statement that working 50+ hours per week is destroying your family, simply comes from the fact that if you are not present in your families lives, you are not an influence.

Now, if you are thinking that the 50+ hours is what is required for you to "earn a living" then let's take a serious look at that.

Earning a living, or making enough money to sustain your families welfare is on the surface, an honourable pursuit. If you have to trade too much time for the money you require, then it is only because you are not getting paid enough to work less hours and to make the same money.

Here are some ways you can begin to make more money in less time:

Start your own business and work from home
People are doing this and making enough money to replace their income on a regular business
The tax write-off's are huge
The reduction in your overhead costs like clothing, travel time, vehicle expenses, insurance, food, etc. is huge.
Educate yourself in your field
Become of greater value to the company you work for, take some related courses, they will pay you more if you are worth more to them.
Learn about your competition, learn their strengths and weaknesses and develop a better strategy for your employer, this extra effort will move you up the ranks
Find out where your own company is weak, make yourself strong in that area and get yourself promoted.
Request that your employer allow you to work from home
For this to happen, you must have a job that is not location dependent. Jobs like this exist, do the recommendations in #2 and create this opportunity for yourself.
You will save your employer money
You will save yourself time in commuting
You will reduce your overhead costs
Learn how to be more efficient in your work - this will get you a raise and reduce the amount of time at work.
Plan your next work day before you leave today
Complete the six most important things first, then do the rest on the list.
Allow you to-do list to flow, keep adding to one list and remove the items from it as they are completes. This is the list you will determine the six most important things on.
Stay away from the company chatter; going around and talking with everyone is counter productive, this is robbing you and the company of time and makes you have to stay later to get done what you did not work on while you were chatting.
Take action on one of the four things above, if you do nothing, then nothing will change and likely you will end up working more hours. I rate this list in the order of importance for your consideration.

Figure out a way that you can get back home to be with your family and when you get there, do not just sit down in front of the TV. For you to be an influence, allow your kids to see that you love them, show an interest in what they do. Work with them on their homework, (a real trick to looking smart is have them teach you what they know) instil a good work ethic. Show them how to work smart, not hard.

If you are thinking that you require some special university degree to accomplish what you want to have in life, this is a "sales pitch" that you have decided to buy in to.

You are a person of skill and talent; it is up to you to believe in yourself to make that happen.

I hope this article has assisted you to learn how to make more money in less time and I hope you better understand why working 50+ hours per week is destroying your family.

Copywriters, Learn How You Can Write Faster And Make More Money The Easy Way


Did you know that you can make more money on every project you do, starting on your very next project?

Think about it. You love to write great copy and it's great when you get paid well for doing so, right?

But what if you could write even faster and complete each project in less time than you currently do?
Would you be able to make more money? Sure you would.
But would you have to learn some ridiculous and complicated writing techniques so that you can write 150 words per minute? Absolutely not! It is way simpler than that.

Do you enjoy doing lengthy and in-depth research for each project? Maybe you enjoy researching, up to a point.

But here's the thing:

If you could have all the necessary research to hand every time you sit down to write, without having to do the research yourself, would you be able to write much faster than if you had to keep stopping to look up facts and figures? Of course you would.
And wouldn't it be great if you could get someone else to do the research for you, someone reliable, someone who will deliver exactly what you need on time every time? I bet that would make life much easier!
What if you paid the researcher half of what you get paid for doing the writing, would you be able to do more projects and make more money? Of course you would. It makes sense. You are a writer and your time is valuable. You want to get paid for writing. It pays much more than what you would have to pay a researcher for their time.
And what if the researcher worked exclusively in your niche? They would be very familiar with what to look for and where to find the information that you need. All you have to do is tell them what you are looking for, tell them when you need it and then you can crack on with another project while the researcher digs through thousands and thousands of sites on the internet to find exactly what you need.
Wouldn't that help your business to run more smoothly and make your life a whole lot easier! And you'd be making more money too.

I know what you are probably thinking now, that there must be a catch. This just seems too good to be true. Well there is no catch and it's true. You can make more money by outsourcing your research.

So what are the pitfalls?

If you don't hire a good reliable researcher you won't get your research on time or you won't get the quality of research that you need to write great copy. And that can certainly happen if you are not careful.

So do your homework carefully. Check out the prospective researcher. If everything seems to be in order - they seem to have all the right skills and training - then hire them for your next small to medium project.

Give the researcher a deadline way ahead of when you need the research. That way if they don't provide quality research on time you will still have time to do the research yourself. And obviously you won't pay them. If they don't deliver what you order, they can't expect to be paid.

I know this might seem like a big chance to take. You could probably do without the hassle. Business is doing OK at the moment. You don't want to rock the boat.

But what if you really could make more money by outsourcing?
What if this works to your advantage and you hire a reliable researcher who can deliver quality research on time every time you need it?
How would that improve your business and your profits?

Now imagine what would happen if you hired a researcher for a small to medium project and they delivered exactly what you ordered on time or even before the deadline you set? So, you might just decide that you will hire them again and again and again. Now you are doing more projects than you ever thought possible and you are making more money and you are not working any harder or working longer hours. Instead you are working smarter. You are really beginning to enjoy working with this researcher, you spend most of your working time writing instead of researching. Life is good, business is good and getting even better.

So why not consider outsourcing the research on your next small to medium project and if everything goes according to plan, you will be writing faster and making more money. It really couldn't be simpler.
