Well I am one of the ones who ended up quitting my full time job to go online and this is how I did it. I came home from work and got online and started going to other peoples blogs and offering them free graphics. I was doing my own graphics because I was too cheap to hire someone to do it for me.

So as I gave away free graphics to people I was prompted by Gary Simpson to go ahead and make a business out of it. I really didn’t want to do it cause I thought my skills were not good enough and that I wouldnt make much money.

The funny thing is that once I put a payment button on my website, the orders came flowing in. And the reason why was awesome. I had given so many free graphics away that those people came back and paid me for the next one and they freely advertised for me on their blogs.

I had no idea that this would happen but it did and I’m grateful for it. Now I don’t make a killing online or anything but saw a simple business plan become successful. So in 2010 I plan on giving more away and building my business in other areas.

If you just stay on track, you will do great I know. Use the fact that you get frustrated and burnt out from your job to justify the extra time you put in onlline. I could have never imagined that I get to spend more time with my kids than I ever did before simply because I can take them to school and pick them up.

Sorry for the long reply but I really think you will succeed because of going back through the course again. I did the same thing. Don’t worry about getting it right, just get it going.
