Why Is My Wife Happy Being A Business Opportunity Widow?

Why Is My Wife Happy Being A Business Opportunity Widow?
Why is my wife happy being a business opportunity widow?
Let me start from the beginning. For years I have been
trying to give my family a better lifestyle, and in this
search to no end I stumbled upon the business opportunity
industry in the hope of fulfilling my dream. It started
with offline methods over 15 years ago as I tried get-rich
quick plans and programs like chain letters (that was the
first one), blind offers, horse-betting systems, real
estate programs, gifting clubs, and the king of all
business opportunities-network marketing or mlm (my take:
geometric progression and passive income has done a number
on millions). My efforts became more sophisticated, or at
least that’s what I thought, as the business
opportunity industry combined with the Internet seduced me
into thinking that more money was nothing more than a click
of a button away (it still touts this). I bought all the
latest systems that also assured me more money was around
the corner; banner ads, adwords, adsense, co-registration,
private-label rights, and so on and so on.

I can’t say thru any of the above mentioned that I
even came close; and, for the most part I had given up on
the idea that any plan I purchased would ever help. But,
here is the irony; though my confidence in the industry was
virtually non-existent and I doubted anyone would ever
divulge the “one” miracle business opportunity
method…I could not stop from buying them. I guess I
was addicted to failing and why I refused to be level
headed about this issue I’ll never know; although, if
it’s any consolation, there are millions just like
me-essentially, buying nothing for something (maybe
that’s the explanation for my failure). In addition,
each time I bought into a business opportunity (online or
offline) I would become jittery and anxious; nervously
wondering if the plan I bought would work. Naturally, my
fidgeting didn’t make my wife too comfortable as she
witnessed me trying to vainly implement the so-called
“simple” instructions that would have us living
high on the hog in a month or so. Needless to say, domestic
tranquility was in short supply at those times and my
admonitions of “I’m doing this all for
you,” did not pacify my wife in the least.

Finally, through a fortuitous event I came across someone
who could really help me with my goal. That is, avoid the
business opportunities with no potential and pursue one
that did. My mentor assured me his information would help
me tremendously and we set up meetings at my house. Armed
with a newfound confidence and with expert guidance, I
became a “different person” (that is my wife
talking, mind you, not me). My wife told me that she
witnessed me listening to anyone for the first time! She
commented that she never saw me so focused, transfixed, and
disciplined. In the meantime, my mentor was right! He
provided me with information that helped me avoid the bad
and implement the very, very good. It did not take long for
me to turn things around and if there was such thing as
Business Opportunities Anonymous, I could lead a discussion
group (I can see it now, “Hello, my name is Bobby,
and I’m a business opportunity addict”).

However, the story about why my wife being happy being a
business opportunity widow goes far beyond the financial
rewards that have accompanied my success. While she has no
problem living with those proceeds, it is the more subtle
changes that have occurred that has her smiling. As
mentioned earlier, while I was being mentored, my level of
discipline and focus took a quantum leap. Obviously, I took
my newfound discipline and focused it on a business
opportunity that worked. However, I never dreamed it would
have an impact in other ways. You see, in becoming a
reformed business opportunist I also developed a very
“attention to detail” oriented demeanor; and,
it was just a matter of time before this quality started to
manifest itself in other areas of my life in ways my wife
would love. Before too long I was giving attention to
balancing our checkbook, making sure the trash cans were
set out the night before pickup, making sure my son’s
homework was done. Truthfully, I never realized I did not
give too much effort in these areas until my wife mentioned
the change in me. Makes sense, females tend to be very
attention to detail oriented, and, apparently, I was now.
Should I credit the business opportunity industry for this?
Probably, but not in the way you think. My wife loves how
emotionally grounded I have become. And, once again and in
conclusion, this carry-over effect at home is “Why my
wife is happy being a business opportunity widow!”
