How to Build a Business Online

[Free Lesson] #12 – Life as an online business owner. Here’s the truth…

Life as an online business owner was not really about staying by the beach and enjoying sunshine.

I might wake up one day with tons of emails alerting me of server irregularities. That would be considered a bad day for me because I would have to put down all my work or even holiday plans to fix the issue.

Some days, I might have to fix bugs.

I have also had bad times fighting with hackers and spammers, thinking of ways to outsmart them.

Basically I work everyday.

I think I haven’t had a work-free day since my first online business.

If I was on a vacation or it was a festive day, I would wake up an hour earlier to do minimal work and finish up all outstanding work before I slept.

Sounds bad?

But here are the good things for me.

To work, all I need is my laptop and an internet connection.

I travel around the world with my wife. We visit at least 2 countries every year.

I have even stayed in Shanghai, China, for 3 years. That shows how mobile I can be.

Most important of all, I got to watch my 3 kids grow and be part of their memories.

I have never missed any important moment, such as their first day of school, performances or ceremonies.

During my free time, I can experiment with new ideas and create new tools. That’s why LeadsLeap is full of innovative tools.

Last but not least, I have time to learn and explore other investment opportunities.

If I have a second career choice, I will still choose to be an online business owner.

I guess that is what people mean by living with no regrets.
