The other day I found an interesting chap sitting and having a cup of coffee at Starbucks; we got into a conversation about the follies and challenges of various folks in Wall Street and in our political leadership, and he couldn’t say enough spiteful things about Republicans in Washington DC, and folks on Wall Street, claiming that it was they who were depriving folks of their chance to work for a living wage and become successful in life. Then he made a blanket statement that:

“Education is Power, It Is Opportunity.”

Well, I think I disagree completely. It’s not that knowledge is not necessary or that education is “a way” or one perceived way to get that knowledge, nor is it a reality that a solid education surely would help on a resume for certain types of employment positions, sure that’s true enough, at least in our present period, however, one could also say, well me specifically would say that:

“Higher Education and Student Loans, Lead to Economic Enslavement,” or that “Higher Education has Introduced so Much Political Correctness into Our Society that it has Essentially Hijacked the American Way of Life,” and look at the results today, right now. Is it good enough? Is this the best and “final answer” to an advanced and modern civilization? Student loans of $100,000 or more, and textbooks in excess of $250 per year for information you can get in lectures for free online, or from WikiPedia?

Further, I would submit to you that since employment application ratios to positions open is so very high, many employers are requiring more substantial education, not because they need it but to shorten the stack of resumes. This is causing an artificial demand for high education, and as we allow students to borrow money for higher education it is inflating the bubble, thus increasing costs – but to no avail, those with lots of education, will just have more debt in the future – therefore, forced to work to pay it back.

“Economic Enslavement as Opportunity Through Education?” Really, you think so?

Next, and I can say this as an entrepreneur who left school to run my own company, it really appears to me that higher education in many regards merely causes linear thought and the ultimate obedience to the future employers, so is that really kind of like “dog training” and the overall domestication of humans in trade for a bone, or in this case higher salary?

And still, it comes with a dog collar and chain of student loan debt, with the taxpayer’s picking up the poop when those loans default or those dogs forget? Please consider all this and if I offended you, deal with it, you are a good puppy you can handle it.

Creating a home based business is not difficult to do when you have the desire, drive, and determination to see it through to the success you desire. However, in order to achieve the success you desire, it requires creating an at home business that fuels your passion. The best home based business opportunities develop out of the transformation of your personal interests and hobbies into a profitable endeavor.

Creating a home based business with ease also requires you to follow some simple but practical steps that help you to achieve the success you desire. The steps are mostly common sense; it’s no surprise to learn that achieving the success you desire requires planning, patience, and persistence.

• Planning your at home business includes determining both the type of product, service, or information you will offer as well as determining who your primary target market will be. During the planning phase, you should also consider developing a budget to follow that you can live with as well as a list of goals you would like to accomplish in order to achieve the success you desire. Break down each goal into steps you can take that will lead to creating your own home based business with ease. Your goals should be the end results you desire, but it takes specific daily, weekly, and monthly tasks to help you meet those goals.
• Patience is as critical to the process of creating an at home business as the planning is. Without patience, you may leap at an opportunity without fully assessing the risk involved, or you may make decisions without having all of the information you need to make sure the decision will bring you the success you desire. Patience is also required because in most cases, creating a home based business does not result in overnight success. It takes time, consistent effort, and comprehensive marketing to reach the level of success you desire.
• Persistence may be the differentiator between those who stay in business and those who fail. Most small businesses fail within the first two years, but many of those failures happen within the first few months. Creating an in-home business is exciting, but settling in and staying committed to the ongoing work involved in achieving the success you desire requires a level of persistence and commitment not everyone is willing to make.

If you can handle the three Ds – desire, drive and determination – and the three Ps – planning, patience, and persistence – then creating a home based business can be done with ease.
