Why Making A Living Outside of the Master’s Box Is Important

Posted on October 29, 2016 - October 29, 2016 by Nikoya

1307_think_outside_the_box1This blog launched with several posts on how to follow your purpose, make a living on your own terms, and how to break the dependency of having a “job”.  I wrote about the spiritual aspects of working in corporate America in Are You A Spiritual Prostitute? and it stirred a lot of questions from the audience to be explored.  We expounded on how to live your vocational purpose, why it is important to live your assignment versus having a job, how to Create Income, How to Master Your Assigned Industry and Create Income, How to do the mental work of creating an income and more in the archives.

There are so many dimensions on this topic that more can be explored and written as time goes on. I have learned so much over the course of time, hence receiving revelation on what works and what does not.

There is never a more important time to release dependency on any masters that exist when it comes to taking care of the basic needs of your life.  a “master” would be any form of: a invisible employer, prostituting bosses, or any entity where you are working to achieve their goals and at the cost of neglecting your own.

Time and freedom may be the only goals you have – these are just as important as anything else.





Your assignment in life should never be neglected to work somewhere where the needs of the body are the only needs being met.

Your job and your purpose are not synonymous. Your purpose and your assignments are not necessarily being animated at your current job just because you are there.

Creating financial independence promotes purpose development and life assignment fulfillment.  As long as you have to spend your time and energy working for a master, you will not be able to fully explore the non-limitations of life purpose and potential.

Breaking free from the master’s box is not always easy, and sometimes in exploration of financial freedom we can find ourselves in even more bondage-like scenarios.

Beware of the Image of Freedom

I recently experienced this in my most recent business endeavor working for  a small consultancy.  The opportunity appeared to promote flexibility, freedom and a solid learning platform.  I took it on with high hopes. I was functioning as a consultant, as an independent agent, for a large corporation who was just establishing a global procurement department in order to increase the functionality and profitability of their organization.

As time went on, I was emerged more and more into this primary clients corporate culture and in-the-box strategies.  In my bosses efforts to please the client, we went along with most of the standard work- with me doing the heart of it all, both high level and detailed-analytical aspects, with my boss presenting it as his own. I was then required to be in office daily, at set times, while he lived in a different city and flew around serving other clients. The consultancy’s revenue was 70% from the client I was consulting with, while their other 30% of revenue was from their misc. clients.

They were severely profiting off of my work and face-time.

I was getting cheated. Not only financially, but physically due to the in-person requirements and corporate like bonding which they desired. As a result my own business was neglected, I was driving over 2 hours per day just for this, I was essentially working a corporate job without the perks and benefits, and I had no time for my own business responsibilities.

This is what I mean by another form of a master-ship: prostituting bosses.  Especially when you are a part of a very small group who functions independently. If your boss takes your work and it is the heart of what is provided to the client, but you are not able to profit off it all equally; this is prostitution.

If you are breaking into an industry or working entry level, how your boss uses your work is different of course. I am not talking about this. Working as a consultant and independent agent, I provided high level strategy and guidance to implementation to upper and executive level management who were in the process of creating a global team. The stakes were high but they weren’t paying me the price.

Recognizing the value you are providing is another clear indication of if you are in the right place in your career or vocation.

No one will care that you increased X corporations revenues by $25.6 Billion in a 6-8 month term upon your death. Your legacy should be something other than how you increased business revenue for an invisible elite. Let your life be about how you impacted your own community and lived your life enriching other lives along the way.

A Job Is Seasonal & Temporary if it is a Requirement For You

If you must have a job, understand the seasonality of it.  Jobs are great when they are a part of your seasonal assignment. They are an excellent opportunity to temporarily learn your industry on your bosses expense when you do not know what you are doing.  This is the key to recognizing value: When you know and can verbalize your worth, that is the time you will be accountable for prostitution if you don’t put an end to it and seek independence.

The problem with the job type of agreement is that people get into the “job” mindset and thus become dependent.  They sound like trained robots versus logically thinking adults.

It is the element of continuous dependency that is dangerous, not the act of having a job or an employer temporarily.  Dependency creates a delay in self-actualization, thus preventing you from fully animating your life assignment and God-given purpose.

If the master can keep you searching for a job whenever financial times are challenging, your attention is fixed on the basic needs of the body: food, clothing, shelter, and other worldly non-essentials. But if you create an avenue of independence financially, the season of needing a job will be put to rest.  You can now live out your purpose and life assignment. This is the missing element many of us miss in life.

Don’t be next.

Authenticity Cures Disease, Addiction and Depression

Many mental illnesses and cases of depression are rooted in the sense of a lack of fulfillment and non-animation of life purpose.  People feel stuck in life long circles of redundancy, monotony and habits.  They have to keep doing the same things everyday or else they will not have X, Y and Z.  If they stop, not only will they not have X, Y and Z, they may not know why they even need certain parts of that X, Y, and Z.





Authenticity is a path that leads you to recognize your masters.  Your masters may not even be rooted in the side of traditional workmanship. You may have created self-appointed masters such as addictions: food, drink or drugs. There are several people I know that only work to feed these masters- and only work just enough to supply what they need. These masters have the same stifling effect of a soul crushing job, and may be even harder to break free from.

In the end of it all, more of the master’s money will not help you reach your true potential. Only you can own and choose to embark on the responsibility of animating your created purpose.

Increasing Income Series I

Posted on January 7, 2014 - January 11, 2014 by Nikoya

Written by: Nikoya | Hire Me

9-how-to-create-income-passively-todayTowards the end of writing my previous post about creating extra income, I got the idea to start a “increasing income series”.  I will write about my specific journey towards a certain financial goal.

I plan to closely write about my plans, goals, experiences, financial reports and monetary figures (yes actual numbers! No matter how scary it may be!) as time goes on.

I want to stay accountable, but also add clarity to the journey.  That is my purpose for doing this series on this website.

Hopefully when I have completed it, it will be a great help and motivator for those that choose to read and follow along.

Given that my blog is ranked high for certain search keywords related to electric foods, fasting and growing long, afro-textured hair, I am not sure how many readers will follow along.  Even though I am a life coach that focuses on life purpose and quality of life in every area, I feel that this is very much aligned in experiencing a good life.

Money is not a bad thing.  The love of money is what is unhealthy by breeding greed.  Money is simply a resource to help us all achieve our God given purpose.

What is money?  Money is elusive; it is a symbol that man created in order to keep track of how one spends his time, energy and talents.

My starting point

 

Last year I roughly made $63-$66,000.  My income halted and suffered not only due to a high risk pregnancy requiring partial bed-rest, but because I just really took it easy when it came to business.  I say this because I worked at a corporate job until June.  Corporate jobs give the illusion that you are doing something.  But in reality at corporate jobs you aren’t doing anything.  It’s just faking it.  And making “Joe Shmo” mo’ money… While you live paycheck to paycheck.

While at the corporate job I neglected my businesses, and in addition to that I was living in a completely different region in the country.  I had to start from scratch with no local contacts or connections.

So now, at the beginning of 2014, I am still in re-build mode.  I am a life coach by background and education, but in addition to that my primary new job is to be a wife and mother.  My daughter is 11 weeks old, and I have decided to get right back on top of rebuilding our income.

My financial goals in order of importance

 

The purpose of creating and increasing my income is to eliminate the following personal debts:

  1. Graduate school student loans – $35,000
  2. Credit card debt – $1,086
  3. Husband’s jeep – $15,000

The purpose of creating and increasing our income is to achieve the following personal goals:

  1. Buying a home – >= $240,000
  2. Building a substantial savings account – Exponential

The purpose of creating and increasing income is to achieve the following business goals:

  1. Obtain office space for Virtuberry 
  2. Hire more staff for Virtuberry – 1 account manager, 1 software developer and several virtual assistants
  3. Increase life coaching income to promote books through travel
  4. Have enough growth in Virtuberry that it because self run, and I can focus on writing self-help/life coaching books and find an agent or publisher

Plan for increasing income

 

The way I plan to obtain this level of income is through growing my life empowerment client list (life coaching), signing more contracts for Virtuberry, marketing consulting, selling e-books, advertising on this website, and 9th Mind empowerment offerings through this site.

Last weeks profits are as follows (to really document what I am starting with):

  • Active life coaching business income – $0
  • Active contracts for Virtuberry – $0
  • Active marketing consulting – $0, $220 in progress
  • eBook sales (christmas week report) – $3.09
  • 9th Mind blog Advertising (12.31.13-1.6.14) – $5.20
  • 9th Mind Empowerment Offerings (currently Atomic Access) – $0

So as you see, my starting point is laughable.  I’m essentially in the red and not actively making any income at all.  I intend to change this and build it back up to what it use to be, without the help of any corporate contracts or jobs I cant stand.  I feel like I have mastered that area and never want to look back.

I haven’t applied for a corporate contract or any type of job since the spring of 2011- yet I am still receiving calls and offers for opportunities with in the oil and gas businesses each month.  Each of them start in the late $60’s, but I know that it is not a sustainable path to wealth, nor is the oil and gas industry my realm of influence.

Not to mention, why would I want to cap out at $60-$70?  You’re paying peanuts in exchange for complete misery, bad coffee, horrible small talk and a beige cubicle?  I’m saving the company $70-$80,000 weekly as a sourcing specialist and/or buyer, totaling to nearly $250,000 or more on a quarterly basis; and all you can pay is $65,000 with a measly $440 quarterly bonus?  Didn’t I just save this company more than my entire salary in just 2 weeks?  I don’t think so.

One thing I love is this: I can’t get laid off.


My dream is to eliminate my student loan debt no later than 18 months.  I want them long gone.  It has been so long already (since 2007), it is time.  But the ultimate goal is to have fully functional, life changing businesses, that create jobs and enrich lives.

Creating Extra Income

Posted on January 6, 2014 - January 11, 2015 by Nikoya

Written by: Nikoya  |    Inquire about Paradigm 9

Those that are regular readers of this website know that I talk a lot about not depending on employment in corporate America, avoiding  dreadful 9-5’s at all costs, and using your gifts or talents to make money.  I have received several emails asking to elaborate on actually how to make extra income, in a way that will enable people to quit and completely eliminate their sucky jobs.

Creating extra income is something that we can all do in our spare time.  We all can do it. There is no reason why you should not be earning your own stream of extra income.  For those that have emailed me about making extra money or starting their own venture, I always ask why they feel they have not started off with their idea yet.  The top reason is, “I don’t have enough time to get started”.

For starters, you do have the time.  We all have the same amount of hours in the day- and we all achieve different levels of success.  So what is different about those who don’t become as successful?

Prioritize and create the time to achieve daily goals

Set daily, task related goals.  This will help you allocate 30 minutes, an hour, or 3 hours to get your goal done!  We all have an hour or two here and there. Dedicate time each day to a goal that will get you to a certain growth point.  Know where you are going with your ideas, set a projected outlook and build.

Simply make time.  No amount is ever too small when you are investing in your own work.  Only 10 minutes?  That’s a great start.  I’m sure you spend more time than that stalking ex’s on F*ckbook all day.

Why do you want or need extra income?

We all would love extra income, but attracting extra income is more efficient when you have a designated purpose allocated for it.

I’m not talking about having extra income so you can snatch the next new Jordan’s.  That is not a sustainable purpose.  I’m talking about a motivational purpose that is sustainable, because most extra income streams take time and diligence to become substantial.  Certainly a pair of Jordan’s won’t motivate you long term.  Long term stamina from motivation is what you need to build solid extra income.


You need a weighty purpose; i.e. extra income to take a year off and travel the world.  Extra income to pay off your house in 6 months…  To eliminate credit card debt…  To pay for your daughters private school…  To keep your children from running the streets…  To keep your wife from working at Walmart after retiring at 65 from her “real job”.

For me it is to eliminate student loans.  I also want to start more businesses that creates jobs and work that matters.  I want to create independence for my family.  I’d like my husband to quit his job and for my daughter can do whatever the hell she wants in life.

Design a platform of accountability

A great way to stay accountable is to create a blog.  Friends, family and strangers will help hold you accountable for your goals once you announce publicly.  It also helps to channel your intention towards a specific thing that you want to bring into existence.

Once you declare an intention into the Earth realm, you are giving what is spoken power to exist.  As long as you do not negate the intention, everything in your world will adjust to help it come into reality.


Words are powerful, and if you are aware of that and speak with certainty, you can design your life.  If you make the decision towards a goal your destiny will reflect a reality that you decided to create.  Your decisions determine your destiny.  If you make the decision to create income that is controlled by you with unlimited potential, your destiny will ultimately be a lot different than if you had never made the decision to begin with.

You decided to take the first job offer that came to you, without negotiating. That is why you have a low salary.

You decided to marry that guy who was working at Target when you met him.  That is why you can’t be surprised to learn that he only makes 25K a year after you got married.

Nobody will give you anything; you must make decisions today because it certainly effects where you end up.

Stick to what you know and love

Never do anything just for the money when you are seeking long term, extra income.  Once again, extra income that is supported by your gifts, talents and knowledge typically take time, energy and dedication to grow substantially.  To keep the stamina, make sure you are working on something that resonates with who you are.

When you do any type of work simply for the money it is harder to keep, maintain and control.  Your goal should be to create extra income that you can control and has unlimited earning potential.  Working for the money drains your energy.  Doing work that resonates with who you are, work that you can love, re-energizes you to do more.

There are many dynamics of work that can resonate with us, allowing us to stick with it long term.  One of my businesses, which is a premium outsourcing agency, is outwardly not my passion.  I do not like desk work or work similar to what an IT, or administrative assistant would do.  However, the business model that I created provides value to people by applying tools and ideologies that I am passionate about: saving time, executing purpose, and mastering productivity.

Within that business I can create systems that my virtual assistants can use with our clients to make their lives simpler.  This enables the client to spend more of their day living out their created purpose, with little distraction!

So essentially, instead of only encouraging and teaching people how to live out their purpose (like I do on this blog) I get the opportunity to actually assist people execute their purpose and assignments daily.


We each have something that can provide value to people.  If you do not know what you should do to create extra income, start by thinking about that first (how to create value for those around you), then build form there.
