Almost Had It-Welcome to the Home Based Business Bloopers Show!

Hey, what was that! Somebody could have told me that I would need body armor for the game today. It's midweek, midday, and I'm dodging more baseballs in the stands than the players are on the field. Today I hang out with Earl, my frat brother from college, to have a good time and continue the unofficial contest we have with our home based businesses.

It's the Giants versus the Cubs but we don't really care who wins, we just do this ever so often as a way to enjoy the fruits of our labor. Every time we get together we sarcastically thank our bosses for letting us have the day off with pay to basically shoot the breeze all day. We do this to celebrate the fact that we are our own bosses with our own home based businesses in which we call the shots.

As most people are returning from break-time, I'm getting ready to enjoy the game I played as a boy. And I'm still set to make a little under $300 today from my home based business and I won't even turn on my computer today. This is the type of life I worked for, for many, many years.

Home Run! Hey, that's coming straight at me so I conjure up the spirit of the athlete in me that has long passed, but instead of grabbing the home run ball it grabbed me; Ouch! I need ice now and my laughing friend to my right says I need to stick to running my home based business. But somehow, this has given me a glimpse to an interesting business idea.

Ouch! Cursed is my home based business-because years ago would have had me in a cubicle at a job I hated at this time of the day. But I'm the dummy that thought he was Willie Mays so my home business is off the hook. My injury is just another safety hazard associated with having financial freedom.

Another home run, but I let this one go by without so much as a body lean in that direction. I'm deep in conversation now and I'm on cloud nine bragging about my home based business' two most popular products. My buddy is just as excited about some new marking technique he discovered that doubled his earnings from last year. As two more foul balls barely miss our ducking heads, we both have good news about forging a new partnership with an up and coming marketing company. Low and behold we're talking about the same company that has given us both the opportunity to grow our home businesses exponentially. If my old college chum thinks this deal can work for him, then I know I've made the best decision for the expansion of my company.

The final few lead changes go unnoticed as we unravel the types of splits we've convinced this new company to give us. My old frat brother jumps out first, and looking to win our traditional "Slickest Home Based Business Move Ever" award (which is a beer from the loser), he spouts on about how he got the company to agree to give him seventy-five percent off of every product he sells. But I quickly boast about how I set up a marketing co-op with the company-essentially doubling the advertising dollars I have at my disposal.

The game had finally come to an end and me and my slightly bruised ego left feeling very grateful for being allowed to live the life I've always wanted. If it wasn't for my home business it would be impossible for me to do things like take cruises 12 times a year, work from anyplace that has online access, and watch my kids do what kids do. It started by me just saying what I wanted out of life and chasing my words with actions until I caught my dream.
