We’re living in tough times.
The economy never really recovered from the last recession. The government just funneled trillions of dollars to the banks and favored corporations which drove up stock prices, but did nothing to foster economic growth in the real economy.
As I emphasize in the popular talk I give at preparedness events called Understanding the Modern Grid System, the economy is bad and getting worse.
The worst thing you can do is to just sit there and wait for things to get better.
And while most people know the importance of diversifying their assets when investing, almost no one talks about diversifying their income sources to reduce the risk of job loss or inadequate raises to keep pace with inflation.
You need to have a well-rounded plan for your financial future that takes economic reality into account.
So how do you go about that?

Well, besides increasing the productivity of your household through activities like gardening to reduce your expenses, you need to look for additional options for income.
There are a few main options to look at:
- Get a part time job – particularly to expand your skillset and increase your future employment options
- Start working as a freelancer or independent contractor. There are lots of different kinds of “knowledge work” that are perfect for this – graphic design, copywriting, web design, virtual assistants, etc.
- Start a home-based business. There are lots of options here, but if it’s your first time running a business, it’s best to start with what you know (something related to your career field) and what you’re passionate about.
It’s much better to get something started on the side now and be able to ramp it up after a job loss, rather than wait until you possibly lose your job and then can’t find one and have to start on one of the options above from a dead stop.
I’ve been on a journey of entrepreneurship for over 8 years now after leaving active duty in the Air Force, and I’ve learned a lot along the way.
There’s never been a better time to become an entrepreneur and launch a new business, because:
- The technology to support it is accessible and affordable.
- The resources you need are available everywhere online.
- There’s lots of other people on this journey as well, willing to share their experience and help accelerate your learning curve.
- Many small businesses can’t afford to hire new employees with the high costs of healthcare and taxes, but they still need work done and are more than willing to hire contractors to do much-needed work. They’re looking for people like you to help them.
The one thing that’s difficult (and I know from personal experience) – figuring out what you need to learn first, what resources to use, and what to focus on as you launch a new venture (whether it’s freelancing or a startup company).
I highly recommend learning from others who have been through this process and can help you focus your efforts in learning and in applying what you learn quickly to get traction in your business.

Do you need help in your journey?

And I’m excited to tell you about a fantastic resource that’s available for a limited time that you need to check out if you’ve been thinking about starting any kind of small business venture.
It’s the Ultimate Startup Bundle
It’s a complete library of business and startup resources on all the topics you need to round out your business education and avoid crucial mistakes.
It contains 58 eBooks and 12 eCourses, all created by experienced business owners who’ve been there, done that, and really know their stuff.
It covers everything you need to know about:
- Getting Started
- Lead Generation
- Mindset
- Marketing
- Getting Sales
- Copywriting
- Product Creation
- Finance
- Productivity
- Scaling
With a product value of over $3,300, it’s huge small business library that was carefully curated to give aspiring entrepreneurs like you an edge as you build your business.
In fact, it’s the sort of thing I only wish had been around when I launched my first startup.
And it’s far less than you’ll pay for many monthly membership sites (often $50-$100 per month) and online business courses (typically $999-$5,000).
But, you’ve got to act soon because the Ultimate Startup Bundle is only around for two days, and then the team that created it loses their license to make this incredible library available.
Many of the authors and publishers have taken a big risk to make this available for you, and in return they’ve agreed to keep it to just 2 days.
As an important added bonus, along with the great resources in the bundle you’ll receive free access to premium online software services to support your business, like ConvertKit, ClickFunnels, SamCart, and Thinkific, worth over $900, which makes the small investment of $97 even more of a no-brainer.
You need to take action quickly to ensure that you’re diversifying your income sources and you’re ready for the tough times ahead.
So don’t wait – take the opportunity to launch your startup dream now.
