Re-Invent Yourself? by Stefanie Hartman

Are you lacking energy and enthusiasm? Are you tired of living a pay-check to pay-check life? Maybe you’re tired of 60-hour work weeks. Maybe your work/life balance feels more like an unbalanced scale of deadlines, pressures and late nights at the office than a happy balanced home. Or maybe you’re just burned out from years in the same field and you want to feel inspired again.

If you’re dragging your feet to work every day is it simply time to replace the leather in your shoes or cash it all in for a better life?

Over 50% of workers feel tremendous stress on the job, and 77 percent say they feel burnout, according to a survey by CareerBuilder.com. If you can relate to any of this or your professional life is leaving you drained, then perhaps it’s time to re-examine life’s possibilities for you — a new way of working and earning money.

This may require a complete shift in how you think about earning money. Most of us trade our time (usually 8- 10 hours per day) for money. Millionaires or “Millionaires in Training™(MIT)” look at trading their value for money, thus allowing them to free up their valuable time.

So, how can we get paid for our value instead of our time? Well one major way is to use your life experience to help transform other people’s lives in the areas of business, money, relationships, health or spirituality, by becoming an “Expert” and building a business around your expertise, just as I have helped many Entrepreneurs and Ex-Executives to execute exactly that. It is a sure fire way to use your life experience, sell information you already have and put those years of hard earned expertise to good use, while being part of an exciting viable business that is totally customized to fit your needs, your personality and your lifestyle preferences, thus making you …yes happier.

Think you have what it takes? Could you be like Dr. Dubynski who decided to build a business beyond his medical practice and become a “Parenting Expert”? Or how about the University Finance Professor, Dr. Scott Brown, who is becoming “The Wallet Doctor”, an expert who is breaking open the doors on Wall Street and teaching the little guy how to win big through savvy investment strategies? And then there is the V.P. of Internet Marketing, Bill Sweetman, at one of the largest advertising firms in the country, who is fast becoming a recognized “Blogging Expert” and even contributing as an Expert to national TV shows, he like the others, are all MIT graduates who are re-inventing their life.
You can see how doctors and high powered corporate executives want to replace their high incomes without having to clock in to work everyday. Selling their expertise allows them to get paid for their value not their time. Another market group that is seriously looking at this lifestyle are divorcées or single parents that suddenly find themselves needing to increase their income while they stay at home looking after their kids. They don’t have time or money to go back to school to retrain and compete for a job.
Most people have gone through some sort of re-invention at some time in their life. With some it was pure choice, they just knew they were meant for more and they were ready. With others it may have been life’s circumstances or a loss of a job that forced them to re-evaluate what they wanted and how they wanted to live. This may happen to you in your 30’s or your 50’s, but regardless of how or when you get here, could this be life’s way of giving us all a little wake-up call?

Top 5 Reasons to Consider Getting Paid for Your Value NOT Your Time:

You can’t shake the feeling you were meant for more. Some people just instinctually know deep inside they are meant for something more. They may not even be able to explain it, but they get “the calling”. You know its time to re-invent yourself when your job no longer excites you or you outgrow it. Many professionals, who’ve worked in the same business for 25 years, decide they just want a different lifestyle. They’re tired of the 9-5 grind and want a life where they can spend more time traveling seeing the world or at home with their families.

You are a Vault of Information & Experience. You’ve spent years learning and observing. You can see people around you making mistakes that you would have avoided. What is commonsense to you that is not for others? Your natural skills and abilities and your valuable successes and accomplishments may be old hat for you but life changing for someone else. Stop selling yourself short! It’s a natural need we all have to learn from each other. Why not bottle it up and help people?

Flexibility. You’ve heard the term “Get a Life”, well now is your chance to do just that. Work from home or build your own office. Work 5 days a week or work 3. Move to a new city or country every year and maintain your business from your laptop and phone. Take that 6-month sabbatical you have been dreaming of.

Customization. Like to write? Travel? Train people? Experts can package their information in the form of books, e-books, speeches, DVD’s, live group trainings, executive consulting, Teleclass trainings, online programs and services, membership sites, or creating a company that trains others to “do” what you “know”. You choose the combination that suits your strengths.

The Green! Finally! Can we say it? No more begging for vacation time or your next raise. YOU are in charge of how much you earn and when. You write your own pay check, when you need or want it. In 2 one-hour Teleclasses I sold over $88,000 in products. Experts I coach are making even more!

Information is great. Transformation only occurs however, when you put it into practice.
