Pocket “Spare Time” Income Doing Something You Love

Filed under: Val's Comments

Love to Travel? Love to Eat? Love to Play with Your Dog?

Whatever you love, you can turn photos of it into cash (in your spare time)—and get paid to do something you’d gladly do for free.

Listen in on a special call on April 1, 2010 as three professional photographers talk about how they do it… and how you can get started, too… no experience necessary.

Can You Really Start a Business in a Weekend? Lessons From a Master of the Quick Launch

By Valerie Young

Is it really possible to come up with a great idea on a Saturday, be in business by Monday and grow sales to the $1 million mark in a year? It is if you’re willing to ditch a lot of lame rules that hold most people back, like one enterprising entrepreneur in Florida.

According to a recent article in The Miami Herald, serial entrepreneur Maria Elena Ibanez was at her hairdresser’s when she struck up a conversation with a woman who had a background in the Latino food business. Obviously [...] Continue Reading…

Barbara Sher was absolutely right

Filed under: Val's Comments

“When you get near people who are pursuing their heart’s desire,” says Barbara Sher, “you can see the intensity on their face. Life is just too short to live without that kind of focus.”

Powerful words.

Yet, reading them is one thing. Actually SEEING THEM IN ACTION is quite another.

I invite you to experience — if only for a few short moments — what it really feels like to be in the company of people who are deep in the throes of pursuing their heart’s desire…

Lisa and I had a ball putting this video together. And it was even more fun [...] Continue Reading…

I know it and you know it…

I’ll cut to the chase…

You know and I know that you desperately want to do work that pays the bills AND feeds  your soul.

So, in theory, all I should have to do is remind you that the $500 off Early Bird Savings ends TODAY for the “Profiting From Your Passions” workshop & retreat.

But you and I also know that “wishing” is a whole lot easier than “doing.”

***********************

So Ask Yourself…

Exactly how many more years do you intend to waste…

…”wishing” you could change course to work at something that makes you [...] Continue Reading…

Could Doing Work You Love Be The Fountain of Youth?

Valerie Young

By Valerie Young

I always wrap up my private brainstorming sessions with the same simple question: “Was this helpful?” I’m both proud and humbled to say, 99 percent of my clients invariable answer with some version of, “YES!”

So yesterday I was more than a little surprised when a client replied, “Helpful?! My goodness, you just added 20 years to my life!”

I’m not in the fitness or health fields. My thing is to help people who want to make a living without a job figure out how they can make money doing stuff they really love to do. [...] Continue Reading…

Are You Going to Take Advantage of TODAY’S Gift?

I’ll be honest with you — I have a really full plate of stuff I really need to get to today — not the least of which is getting some final edits into my editor at Random House.

But I’m also smart enough to recognize a GIFT when I see one.

What I mean is — you and I both know what you desperately want…

You want to work at what you love…

You want to know the work you do matters…

You want to enjoy the control and freedom of being your own boss…

And of course you want the financial rewards that come [...] Continue Reading…

Charles Handy wrote, “For the first time in the human experience, we have a chance to shape our work to suit the way we want to live instead of always living to fit in with our work… We would be mad to miss the chance.”

It’s your chance to join me for the first ever “Profiting From Your Passion” workshop. This is no ordinary workshop. For starters we’ll be meeting around in the most intimate location [...] Continue Reading…
