Right now I'm sort of in the last category you mentioned. I have a full-time job but I've been trying to build various projects off on the side, part-time. When I'm confident that I'll be able to succeed in that venture, and begin to see a steady income stream I'll make the jump. Congratulations on your success!

I often choose physical products for that reason alone. For services and digital products, I review them carefully before working with those merchants. Hi Bilbos,

I started a pet sitting/dog walking business in Sept. 2009 and while building that continued to work fulltime at a company that was over 1 hour to get there and over 1 hour to get home and then in the evenings run the business, etc. I am happy to say that my last day at my fulltime job is May 27th. Yes, long hours, sleepless nights but the day finally came !! I am a little scared and nervous because I live alone and do not have any other financial support but I am at the place now where my business can pay the bills and I love what I do !

Now i am hesitating between entering an affiliate program or just starting my own business. I just have an issue trusting those programs. I receive some emails advertising such affiliate programs. Yet the emails never really explain what the business are. I am the type of person that can pay for a product he does not understand. what is your advise concerning affilate programs? hi lynn, must say reading your newsletter, and this article too, got me really thinking about starting my own little business.

It is like having a good idea to be in business versus having a "no option except to succeed" kind of thinking. I wish someday i can be sharing my story to you. Thanks.

I am in a similar situation where the long days of doing both a full time gig and launching 3 different ventures at once is crazy but being fueled with passion does not make it seem so bad. I know that we are landing clients and making moves daily so its only a matter of time before I make the leap. :) Thanks so much for this great article.
