Money – The Root of All Stress...Or Not?

As I was thinking about what to write about today, it occurred to me that while stress is a major cause of high blood pressure, money is a major cause of stress. Read to the bottom of the blog to find tools to help you make more money online and relieve some of that stress.

I'm not great at algebra, (in fact, I barely made it thru high school algebra, and that was WITH tutoring!) but it seems to me that equation would be stress + money issues = high blood pressure.

Note that the equation includes "money issues." Wouldn't that be nice if the issue was too much to spend? I'm still working on having that particular scenario!

Bills + Not Enough Money = Stress

So what do you do when you have more bills to pay than you do money to pay those bills? We all know how quickly those bills add up:

• The electric bill in summer (unless you want to sweat thru 3-4 months a year)

• Heating bill in winter (or risk turning blue from the cold)

• Medical bills
• Car repair bills or buying a new car

• Mortgage or rent

• Phone bill (unless you want to live as a hermit)

• Who knows what else will crop up – appliances break, etc.

There are three options:

1. Spend less (unless you've already gotten your spending down to where you don't go to Starbucks, you wash your own car or just let it look like the dirtiest car in the parking lot, or basically there's nowhere else to stop the outward leakage of your money.
2. Borrow money from a relative and risk not being able to pay back and causing a rift in that relationship
3. Find a way to make more money with a second job, third job or a home business.

The Best Scenario Requires Consistency and Focus

I've been a part of all three scenarios, and by far the best scenario is to earn extra money from home. You may not be able to see money in your bank account as soon as yesterday, if you know what I mean, but with planning, consistency, and focus on your result, you should be able to improve your situation.

I'm being honest here. You have to find a passion for something you believe in, and work on it even when you don't feel like it. As Mike Healy, a man who has climbed to the top of at least three different networking companies says, "Do today what others won't, so you can live tomorrow like others can't."

Think about what you love, what you know, and how it can help other people. Then share with other people what you know.

You may have heard my story: I am passionate about helping people find ways to get healthier. The issue I've focused on is blood pressure. But I'm passionate about other ways to improve health as well.

There were so many things to learn to put it all in motion that it took a good year for me to learn what I know, AND I'm still learning. I started out knowing NOTHING about Word, blogging, Facebook, just so many things it's impossible to tell you all I had to learn.

Best Way to Start Making Money Online

A couple of things that you need when you start earning money online is a great support system and training you can count on. Don't fall for the S.O.S. (Shiny Object Syndrom) where people try to sell you a new thing to sell every other week.

You need a passion for what you are doing, and you absolutely have to be consistent in doing it every day. These are just a few things to keep in mind when starting a business working from home.

I've found a company with the training and support that is outdone by none other when it comes to mentorship, honesty, trainings and systems in place that allow you to work from their platform. 

Hopefully, this gets you on the road to having to stress about money issues in your life, and running toward more time for fun with your friends and family.

Here's to less stress and more money for you!

P.S.  One of the BEST foods for controlling high blood pressure is BEETS. You may or may not like beets tho, and they sure can be a pain to fix, right? I’ve found the easiest way to eat beets is this way.
