How to find a job where you don´t have any Boss?

After allmost 40 years as an Naval Officer in the Royal Swedish Navy i was pensioned. The problem is that I don´t feel like a pensioner. My body and my brain will not go to rest. Yet !!!!

I need to have something to do. Some kind of work. Part time. I love to sing in my chamber coir, I like to work partime with politics and I love playing golf during the summer and take care of our summerhouse. I don`t want any BOSS, I don´t want any employee and I don`t want to travel several hours every week to my working place.

Is there any kind of work that suits me?

A Friend of mine introduced me to a Wellness MLM company a couple of years ago. I joined and started to write my 100 list on people I know. I called and tried to get them to a business meeting. Most of them said no. Some of them said yes, but didn’t show up to the meetings I spend a lot of time waiting for people that didn’t show up. I became more and more frustrated.

I spend lots of time trying to learn the skills and read lots of books and listening to CD:s.

Then I found Mike Dillards book “Magnetic Sponsoring” and suddenly I understood what was wrong.! I must stop hunting people who didn’t want to join my business and search for a way to get committed people to call me. After some searching on the net, I found my mentor and now I understood that I wanted to work as an

Online Marketer!


It takes me 5 seconds to my office. I can go to my desk dressed in my pyjamas. I am my own boss and have no employee to take care of. I can work in times that suits me best and I can play golf if it`s a sunny day. I don`t have to hunt people to my business.

That`s Why I, Thomas, became an online marketer

Well, Thomas, it looks like you found the best of both worlds! Retirement to enjoy and a job you can do whenever and wherever you want. All while working for yourself! Cheers!

You are right Jan. I have found the best of both worlds. But I´m still hungry to learn things and I don´t want to die curious. And of course, I want to have economic freedom the day I feel old. The cuestion is if ever I will feel old :-)

True, online work is convenient but not everyone is born to have this kind of job.

It is amazing the way life takes us down such diverse paths isn't it? However, it is only the people like you, with such a positive mindset that take up the challenge and enjoy the new lifestyle that you have chosen. And another positive is that you are saving money on work clothes by working in your pj's....so more money to spend on the good things in life ....like golf....I think you've just hit a hole in one :)
