My heart warmed with hope for the future when one of my newly married sons said to me, ” My job starts in a month, I am not worried about it because I can make more money riding horses than the job. The job is more for my education and my future.”
I sat my teenage boys down this morning…wait! How did I get my 3 teenage boys out of bed and up to the table at 10am on a Summers morning? Food. Food is the answer, warm pancakes, ice cream, warm homemade syrup and a yummy breakfast drink. Yup, you want to have any influence on your big boys? Use food.
At least in my house and I claim 10 boys as my boys. I may not have given birth to all of them, but I sure love all of them with all my heart. I pray for them, love them and wish them all success in their lives.
Disclaimer: To the girls in our family, sometimes chocolate is there calling, but things are a little more complicated with them. I love them dearly, but they just aren’t as simple as their brothers.
I used an exercise that my personal life coach had me do. It is all about successful people. You draw an outline of a person and you start writing inside that outline what successful people look like to you. I put yellow paper and pencils on the table.
After they filled their stomachs with the yummy food, I took their plates, (That is a big act of service in our home, the rule is everyone washes their own plate after eating) and then I gave them a white practice paper and a yellow real deal paper. They worked on their papers and there was a peace in our home for a moment. I told them that I loved them, believed in them and to go change the world.
I believe they can.
I believe that a job is important. I also believe that you don’t need to have a job to make money.
The 18 year old said,”How?” I replied,”I don’t know what it is for you, but you can pray and think about it and I believe in you!”
There are an endless number of things that you can do to make money without a ‘JOB’. I personally can’t ever see myself working a job for someone else. It is just like I have no desire to ride a hot air balloon tethered to the ground. It is just too confining for me personally. I 
need my wings to soar with the clouds. I need to be in charge of giving myself a raise. I need to be able to work around my health and my family.
I am always adding ideas to my Pinterest page for making money. What are some of your ideas? It is endless! Job or not there are many ways support yourself.
