The last thing I’d ever want to do is blow my own trumpet but I think I am probably the ideal employee. The fact I am also the employer makes life a hell of a lot easier for me. I tend to perform all of my data entry tasks on or before schedule and I keep my workspace tidy and clean at all times. I am well organised and nicely presented, as well as being punctual and hard working. If I wasn’t my own boss I’d probably be forced to give myself a raise. I think I could pass the criteria in any data entry job description with flying colours.

Everyone has their own opinion of what the ultimate profession is, don’t they? I’ve got no complaints about my data entry job. The fact that I get to work from home is also a really big bonus. That’s one of the main reasons why my occupation gets my vote. Most of you will scrunch up your faces and say typing is for losers, but you probably wouldn’t say that if you knew how much money I was making. Well……actually….you might. It’s not all about the money though, is it? Oh…..it is?

If you want to work from home but don’t have any management skills you may want to think about acquiring some. The last thing anyone needs is having their dream job become a nightmare occupation. Time management skills are a must and don’t even think about procrastinating anymore. That’s a sure fire way to fail. If you have certain skills like being able to type accurately and quickly, you need to marry those skills with some broader business expertise if you want to succeed.

Most people would not be aware of the amount of pressure someone places on themselves when they decide to work from home in some capacity. Being your own boss can be a resoundingly rewarding experience but it can also be a lot of hard work. Maintaining a successful business is a complex and time consuming endeavour and any decision to start your own venture should not be made lightly. My chosen field is data entry and I have experienced some good fortune but I had to put in a lot of effort to get where I am today.

I ran into an old friend at the pub last night and one thing led to another and before you knew it we were discussing my latest hair brained scheme. After I explained exactly what I was doing he mentioned that he thought I was getting money for nothing. Believe me, there isn’t a data entry operator in the world who doesn’t earn every dollar they generate. Just because some workers choose to do their bidding from home doesn’t mean they’re not toiling away with the same intensity as someone who commutes to an office every day.

If data entry is the act of typing a portion of text into a document than I guess you’d call me a data entry guru. Every time I type a word into these blog posts I am committing data entry in the first degree. Would you call it a job? I guess you’d have to. After all, I am getting paid and I am working harder than I ever did in any other position I’ve held before this one. Just because I work from home doesn’t mean I’m not working as hard as the average bricky’s labourer on any building site around the country….or does it?

I can’t believe its Friday again already. Working from home can blur the transparent lines between weekday and weekend sometimes, but I’m happy that I decided to embrace this self employment opportunity with both hands. I do, however, find myself trying to justify calling myself a data entry operator when all I really do is type for this diary. I think the most important thing for me to remember is….everyone has a right to some sort of passive income at some time or other in their life, and this is mine.

I’d much rather work from home than go back to the horrible jobs I used to do before. I’ve got nothing against forklift drivers but I know in my heart of hearts that that profession is not the one for me. I completed a TAFE computer course back in 2002 and followed that with the web design course. I then got a job in SEO support where I learned to touch type and decided then and there to go out on my own and play to win. I’m happy to do data entry from home as opposed to commuting to an office for a typing job.

I’ve been looking for the road to happiness all my life but it’s really hard to find without a map! One of the first steps to making sure you’re heading in the right direction is to sort out which way your career is heading. No one likes to admit it, but making money is a very important part of the whole process we call life. I feel confident that the path I’m on will eventually meet up with either the road to happiness or easy street some time not too far down the track. As a practicing data entry operator I know too well what it means to let your fingers do the walking (and talking!).

I love reading through the ‘positions vacant’ section of the classifieds in my local newspaper, don’t you? I particularly like reading the job descriptions of the data entry posts. I always avoid applying for any jobs where the ad stipulates that applicants need to be enthusiastic or bubbly. I’m neither of those things. My fear of the unknown has always shielded me from trying new things and stepping beyond the limits of my comfort zone. I enter data for a living because I’m comfortable doing that. Why the hell should I pretend to be enthusiastic about it?
