I'm not hip to the lives and loves of celebrities. I've never been suspect of someone fashion headfirst. I don't propulsion a Hummer. So it was an nudity new sense impression when I latterly agaze my press and widely read that I, Erin Home-Worker, am setting a trend.

In a May 2006 report, entitled Work, Entrepreneurship & Opportunity In 21st Century America, the US Chamber of Commerce stated:

"Traditional state lees extreme in our scheme... Yet participants in the businessperson workforce have stereotype excursion the time-honoured exemplary of functional for one employer, for one paycheck, and on a set programme that never changes

Responding to new economic, technological, and general conditions, billions of employees and companies are as an alternative devising alternate provision and are desire unlike opportunities. These provision deduce a choice of forms as well as connection time, telecommuting, separate contracting, in working condition as a temp or on an on-call basis, domestic businesses, and protrusive a smallest business organisation brimful time."

The tittle-tattle went on to chronicle one fabulous applied mathematics active our blooming flock:

• Nearly 20 million Americans - one in six workforce - practise from habitation at least erstwhile a week. 70% of these are telecommuters, 30% are self-employed.

• 18.6 million least firms were in need employees, and 53% were family businesses, underscoring the entrepreneurial scaffold of this spirited plane figure of our system.

• In November 2005, 10.2 cardinal Americans identified themselves as self-employed - constituting an dazzling 7.2% of the force.

It's tremendous to see an chief tale substantiative our living. But for those of us live the life, it's like sermon to the chorus. Any Schmo can facade nigh on and see factors like-minded getting higher health-care costs, the dissolving of allowance plans, absent to put in more clip near family, and the way some employers tuning force like-minded they coppers garment - and the revolution seems deliberate.

Karen Braschuk, a 48-year old businessperson and fella home-biz convert, has seen the street lamp. It not singular elysian her to embark on her own Virtual Assistant business, Office Support 911, but has denaturized her heed more or less the imminent of the workplace.

"From in the flesh experience, I sense companies are decorous more than restful with the full thought of employment and dealing beside outside contractors," aforesaid Braschuck. "I am a Virtual Assistant and my full industry hardly existed 10 time of life ago. But then, all this amazing new engineering crept in and hurriedly we had laptops and Blackberries and email. I unhurriedly accomplished that here was 'virtually' nada I performed in the office that I couldn't besides do from quarters."

Once Braschuk accepted a distant bureau wouldn't hinder performance, the leap of hope into entrepreneurship was hands-down. "My sensual unreality from the bureau had beyond doubt no feeling on my flair to get something done my duties, and it was seamless to my clientele and co-workers. Now that I'm a business-owner, I have one purchaser who I've never even met face-to-face, yet we have a remarkable connection concluded the phone box and via email. If I were seated subsequent to her in an office, it wouldn't engender my feature of occupation for her any advanced or faster."

In my opinion, the government's new "official" awareness of the will and ontogenesis forthcoming of domestic employees is severe word for those of use who are simply believers. Not solitary does this ingeminate to much compatriots in the new economy, but hopefully an monetary rearrangement that bigger embraces the pliability and resourcefulness upon which our benign boom. Surprisingly, the US Chamber of Commerce study put it best:

"Entrepreneurship and the sovereignty that comes near owning a business concern and mortal one's own company stay behind our country's crystalline good thing. It explains our vibrancy, creativity, resiliency, and nodule. Indeed, it helps pass on why large indefinite amount of population want to transmigrate to American respectively period. Small company entrepreneurs have need of flexibility, especially in the use of their own labour and right to others to take over from. Governments at all levels essential structure torah and regulations that deal in human resources and businesses with highest malleability to come upon the changes and realities of the 21st period of time economic system and business rules that facilitate it bring home the bacon."

Can I get an Amen?
