Just think of it. The world, all the things you care about, turning out okay. And it happened because you chose to be a stay at home mom. Sounds crazy, right? It's not necessarily all that far from the truth.
The fact is, all of us (assuming we are decent people) have things or issues we care about. Maybe it's feeding the hungry. Maybe it's finding the cure for cancer. Perhaps our main "cause" is to support our church. In any case, all these thing cost money. Money you don't have.
Beyond that, your children represent the hope for tomorrow. It is not enough that we as a society work to make things better for the here and now. We must also look at the generation that is to come after us.
Who is better equipped and qualified to raise your children, you (the woman who brought them into this world) or the day care worker making minimum wage? I think the answer to that is obvious. No one in the world loves and cares for your little ones more than you. You are the one who should be raising them, not the day care worker.
However, this is the point that real life kicks in. Your children do need food in their bellies, a roof over their head, and countless other things. All of these require money. Money that you will not have unless you go to work.
It's a sad irony that many are faced with. You want to raise your kids yourself, but you can't properly take care of them unless you turn them over to day care worker so you can go to work.
At the beginning I said that you could "save the world" by becoming a stay at home mom, how is that possible? The answer is because of stay at home mom's business opportunities.
The first step is to find an opportunity that is designed to be run 100% out of your home. Take some time examining this as many opportunities claim to be 100% home based, but are not. In other words, you don't want home to be your BASE of operations, but your PLACE of operations.
As a general rule of thumb, this will mean using the internet to market and run your business. Do you know how to do that? If you do, great. If not, then you must also ensure that the program you get involved with has a complete training program to teach you how to do that.
Use caution here too. Many companies out there will tell you they have an internet marketing training program, but once you are in, you are told to buy internet leads. This is NOT internet marketing. Rather, the leads company has done the marketing and you are simply paying them for the information. Often this turns out to be a very large amount of money too. You need to learn how to do the marketing yourself.
Once you get started, the first and most important goal is to replace your current income. This can be accomplished much quicker than you may realize. Once this is done, you can become a stay at home mom. No more day care, your children will have you 24/7.
When you accomplish this, your income will continue to grow, even if you take time off from the business. Imagine, going on a month long vacation and getting a raise while you are gone.
