Not a day goes by or we read or see news about the Coronavirus (COVID-19) making its mark around the world.

Governments are forced to take extreme measures to contain the virus. Not only does this impact our lives but also the economy. Businesses having to re-think their policies which might affect your paycheck as well.

So first, I want to say that I hope you’re safe.

I hope you’re healthy. I hope you and your loved ones have access to the food, medicine and other resources you need to make it through this crazy time.

People are scared, fear builds and the news surely doesn't help ease that uncertainty.

Remember as chaotic as it can seem during times like this, your inner strength is more important than ever.

What I do not understand...

Why does everyone buy toilet paper en masse due to the Coronavirus? Do you understand?

Even after reading on major news websites the why, I still am puzzled about this. Are you?

So you know, it serves to nothing!

Be your own boss!

Don't let yourself get to the point where income is difficult to come by because you're stuck at home because of the Coronavirus.

With many people being forced to work at home and businesses having to re-think their policies, there’s never been a better time to explore starting your own online business.

If you have skills relating to an online business that’s great, if not I definitely recommend learning from a mentor or taking a course.

Benefits of working from home

Flexible schedule.

You can take breaks at any moment, feel no rush to hang up on your family members when they call and eat lunch at any weird time you want.

Custom environment.

Setup your noise level just the way you want it — somewhere between insanely quiet to being at the front row of a favorite show.

Cozy clothes.

You get to wear those sweatpants from college with the letters peeling off, or the leggings your friends don’t know you own. (And hopefully never will.)

Zero commuting.

From bed to … bed? Hey, I’m not judging, it’s nice.

More time with loved ones.

Take care of a sick significant other at home, be ready for your kids earlier in the day, get some extra snuggles, or simply get some quiet time to yourself!

Making and saving money.

Lunch is expensive if you work in a city or downtown. At home, you can save big time by preparing food yourself. Not to mention the fuel you need to get from home to work and vice versa.

There’s never been a better time to set up a business you can run in your spare time from home. Whether it’s to help make ends meet, or to follow your passion, or maybe even both.

If I did not mention a benefit you thought of yourself feel free to leave it in the comments 🙂

Making money with affiliate marketing

If you are not familiar with what affiliate marketing is, it is basically where a marketer promotes someone else’s products or services and they receive a commission for driving a conversion (purchase/lead).

This is a way to earn a passive income.

To learn affiliate marketing I recommend Wealthy Affiliate.
