So many people miss out on life changing opportunities because it doesn’t come attached with a paycheck; but what I’ve come to learn is some opportunities that appear to have no value up front, can pay big dividends in the future. In this episode I give many reasons why you should consider working for free. One of the most powerful examples I share is the story of a gentleman I know who understood the value of working for free and was able to turn his small investment of time into a $20,000/month business. If you know you want to create a major change in your life, don’t pass on a chance that could get you to the next level because it requires you to work for free. If you’re struggling to find local opportunities to offer your skills or expertise, that means it’s time for you to step up and create opportunities to serve. There are many online platforms that you can use to share your talents, skills, and expertise with people around the world.  If you haven’t figured it out by now, I personally enjoy sharing information about happiness, success, and entrepreneurship with people who want similar things in life. I have found a lot of joy in sharing free information on my Starts With A Vision podcast. I’ve shown up faithfully every Monday through Thursday to share life changing information because I know there are people out there who need this and I want to see them succeed.   I even took it one step further and turned what I’ve learned from podcasting into a FREE course because I believe everyone has a unique voice and message that deserves to be shared with the world. I knew that when I started my podcast, I wasn’t going to see any monetary returns on the investment of my time up front; but I knew that it would pay off down the line -- and guess what, it has. 6 months after turning my Podcast into a reality, I’ve been able to build my brand, increase my following, and I’ve even received an invite to speak at my first major speaking engagement. The act of working for free won’t bring you money up front, but you have to look at it as a chance to create opportunities that will lead to your long term success.
