Me? A "blogger?" A friend said, "Why not? After all, you like to write - and you can type fast."
Well. This is only half-true. The true part is everything the friend said. The part that's not the half-true part is the "friend" part.
Actually the friend who said this was an imaginary friend - the one who lives in my hyperactive imagination and tells me all sorts of wonderful things about me when no one else will.
This is probably because I live in a very isolated part of the country and hardly ever interact with real people - but that's why I do business online! Where else can I get customers?
I digress... Perhaps we can chat more about that later.
But this helps me get straight to the point - which is Truth & Integrity in Business. The reason I'm really doing this.
I stopped working the "9 to 5" stint over a year ago. It just didn't resonate with me anymore. Probably because there was no money in it.
Every single J.O.B. (translate either "Just Over Broke" or "Jerked Outa Bed" - take your pick) I have had in the last 15 years started with:
1) Grant funds and
2) The hint of a glorious future ahead - uh... IF funding continued. Which it never did. Ever. And I suspect I'm not the only victim of this sad state of affairs.
So. All the stuff my guidance counselor in High School would have said if he had actually ever taken the time to speak with me (stuff like: "Go to college, and get a good job with a good company and good benefits - give them your best, and come time for retirement, you'll have a nice pension with nothing to worry about...") was the FIRST pack of lies I believed regarding business.
I've heard a LOT of lies in my life. Lies from kids, lies from an ex - and lies even from my imaginary friend who talked me into "just one more grant-funded job - because this one will be different."
But, I don't want to harp on lies. Being the positive and philisophical thinker that I think I am, I prefer to accentuate the positive, and talk about Truth and Integrity.
I actually practice truth and integrity in my home based businesses. That's why I named this blog the way I did.
I suppose if I ever become a real jerk, I can rename it. But, after all I've gone through to make it in business, and to build some business ventures that really do reflect truth, integrity, and value - I sincerely doubt that I'll turn to the dark side.
If you happen to be someone who wonders, "Gee, How can I also become a person who operates a home business based on Truth, Integrity, and Value?" I invite you visit my sites and explore a great opportunity with a terrific stand-alone product - and I invite you to get in touch with me to get your questions answered. The company has integrity. The product has value. We operate from Truth. A winner!
This is a blatant advertisement - I want you to visit my sites. I want you to examine the membership. I also want you to know that there is a growing population in the home business industry who are awakening to a higher consciousness - and our lives are amazing and peaceful.

About Me

- Kathy
- I always knew my path would be different from others I knew growing up in suburban New Jersey. I’m not sure what was really expected of me, but I doubt that it included the things I wound up doing! About the only thing that I did according to Hoyle was attend college for a B.A. in English. I know...I know. "What can you do with an English degree? Teach?" Aaghagh! I ran for the hills! Literally! Working in Colorado during the summers, my first husband & I had a blast working at a very cool guest ranch outside Rocky Mountain National Park. We bicycled in New Zealand for about 4-5 months - which led us (1984) to McMurdo Station in Antarctica. Although my first husband and I parted ways, I kept going to "the Ice" as it is fondly referred to. After a few Antarctic summers as a contract worker in McMurdo I “wintered over” – a 12-month period (1990-91) in the old bio lab - long since gone. After what seemed like forever, I embarked on the good ship Entrepreneur, met my wonderful husband, John, who shares my values and passion for just about everything. It's a good life!
