E-coupons

Having a business does not guarantee financial independence. I learned that a long time ago and what I earn should stay in the books. As for my own expenses, I hit the newspapers, magazines, and the Web for some treats. After a friend told me about the perks of coupons, I started to take on the responsibility of cutting them myself. At first I thought it was ridiculous because hardly did I see something worth the time and the cutting. But eventually, I got used to the idea; it encouraged me to stay positive which is why I came across a very unique coupon. Since electronic coupons, I began to think how fast the trends change and a lot of advantages are catering to consumers in particular. This coupon is already available online. I’m also very excited about the idea because this business has a list of my favorite restaurants. Surely everyone else is hearing about this and it couldn’t be more fascinating. Imagine dining in or ordering out with only 50 – 70 percent of what you usually spend.

Honestly? I envy them for having such a great feature added to already worth-the-while services they offer. The best part is I have the liberty to share the coupon with my friends and family and they too can do the same. Such network and such creativity make me want to jump up and down.

I have already given some bits of information about the coupon feature to some of my friends. The new banner feature of this business will surely attract attention and they just made one loyal customer.

Practical Ways

I finally got a virtual assistant from a really good outsourcing company. A few weeks ago, we started transacting from one business to another. The virtual assistant I got is extremely phenomenal and skilled at her job. She manages to organize back office task before words come out of my mouth. I am very satisfied with the quality of this company’s services and I have to admit that I never thought this was what I needed. My life changed a lot; it grew from being bombarded into smooth and carefree. I can’t seem to remember the last time I looked at the mirror and dreaded how I looked.

Now, whenever I look at myself, I feel good and even better than I will ever be. A few months ago, I was hesitant, frustrated and lost for solution. I couldn’t get up and feel good about myself and how I was running my life. It didn’t even occur to me to visit relatives or attend family gatherings because I was too focused on work and the business itself. I was wondering that maybe I was not built for it. I almost lost faith but eventually I took a leap of faith and cleared myself with all possible fears. The threats were hindering me to grow as a person and as a business person. So despite the fact that I was venturing into something clearly unknown and unfamiliar with me, I still did. I took a plunge into a world I thought never would exist. But it did nonetheless and I am just happy as a dove for making that decision.

Today, I keep everything alive and myself first and foremost. Being and feeling alive is the best thing that’s ever happened to me and I don’t see myself exchanging this for something else. Now, I can meet friends or have coffee. I can go on vacation without worrying about paperwork. I can go on living for the rest of my life without killing myself in the process. Finally, I am free. Because I made a choice, I took a chance and it never even hurt.
