Getting a job may be tough, but losing one is the easiest thing to do. There are many people who unknowingly indulge in activities that ultimately result in their getting fired. In this blog post, I will tell you about 3 such things that people do without realizing its consequences.
Attitude problem is one of the biggest reasons why people get laid off. There is no dearth of people who think they are invincible and a company cannot survive without them, thus they deserve a royal treatment. And thus they start neglecting or humiliating people. These are the kinds who always are found fighting with his boss or subordinates on even issues of no real importance. Avoid being such person, or the exit door will be nearer than you are imaging.
Your office is not your garden, so better do not treat it as such. It is unwise to reach office late, regularly, and it is doubly fatal to return from office before time, everyday. When I say before time, I do not mean you return before the designated time, what I mean is returning home without finishing day job. Do not fool yourself in believing that a 9-to-5 job means strictly 9-to-5. The work-hour does starts at 9, but thinking of its ending at 5 is crazy.
If you assume you have to do only what is written in your job description then let me take the blinkers off, and show you what all you need to do to survive in the job you have. I am not talking about occasional drifts from the job description you got while joining, I am talking about doing those things that was never ever mentioned. One has to do things beyond the written (or oral for that matter) job description to survive today.

Many people cherish this desire to take freelancing as profession, but not all of them end up taking this as a career. Not because they did not have writing ability, but because they are sold to self-beguiling lies.
This is the most common lie people tell themselves. I often hear people say that after a work it is hard to take time out for writing. This lie is preceded and supported by the fact that they cannot leave their job because the family needs food on the table. Indeed, your family needs your support, so you should not quit your day job, but it has nothing to do with the lie of “not having enough time” that you fool yourself in believing.
Dare to ask people and you will be amazed to find how many people are taking 2 hours each day from their life for part-time freelance writing. This is worth the effort. If you cannot do it daily or on alternate days than stick to weekend-only routine, but do it. Start now and soon you will see the difference.
Well words are important for we freelancers, but words not backed by action ends up being empty words. And empty words do no good to anyone. I know many people who speak volume, but when it comes to taking action, they are just not there. Start writing, do not just speak about starting to write.
From not having time, to not having money to not having enough space at home to make it a workstation, there are many lies that people tell themselves. These lies are colorful, and at times have vivid details, nevertheless, it’s a lie.
The time to start freelance writing is now. There will not be any other good time, nor will you ever have more money than you have today to start freelancing, nor will you have enough space to do that. For those who sell themselves lie, there will not be any opportunity.

Making passive income beside having a regular full time job is a great way to save money. Making passive income can help you retire earlier, live more comfortably, or just have a nice savings for a rainy day. You never know when a rainy day could come in a recession like this. So developing a passive income flowing into your bank account is a pretty good idea.
One good way to develop a little bit of money easily is through writing articles online. There are a variety of websites that pay decently for articles. You can find them fairly easily through any search engine, or job search engine. They don’t usually pay enough for you to make a living from the articles alone, but they are quick to complete and pay a decent rate. As these pile up over the years you’ll find your savings growing, and writing is a lot of fun.
Try blogging on for size. A blog is a great way to build up a little money through advertising. As long as you write quality content that keeps people reading, you’ll be successful. Just network yourself, and use a program like Google’s Adsense to make the most out of your money. They pay fairly well, and a successful blog could end up making you more money than your day job.
Finally, if you put in the work in article writing or blog writing, another great way to make extra money through those is through affiliate marketing. This is where a company actually pays you to talk about their product. You have to have a fairly popular blog, or be renown for your articles, but it’s a fast way to earn a lot of cash quickly. Plus usually you get free products so that you can try them out before you write about them. That’s a win-win scenario, and it puts more money in your savings account.
