Ultimately I'd like to work at home once again, preferably in something IM related. I put my previous failures down to a lack of experience and a lack of discipline. However, IM isn't everything to me, so I'm enjoying the job for the time being because it takes away the pressure. When you're still heavily in the learning stage there's always a chance things can go wrong of course, but the job means I can be heavily immersed in IM daily whether I like it or not, and the salary means I can try out say link building services or things like that with part of my salary without any chance of there not being food on the table or time out to relax and socialise. When I was piecing together a living from article writing, for example, it could reach the end of the month before all of the bills were even paid.
I'm still young enough not to need the security of the job, but old enough to appreciate it and learn from it![]()
