Three Converging Expanding Megatrends: Webucation, Home Based Busines, & the Internet

October 08, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
But, what exactly is meant by a megatrend? As Merriam-Webster and Britannica have no definition for this 21st century word, a trend is defined as "a prevailing tendency" or "new direction", coupled with the prefix mega, which means "greatly surpassing others of its kind". So what is realized immediately is that a megatrend is huge…vast.

The first megatrend is the Internet, which has grown like Topsy since its inception. In the year, 2004, there were 605.6 million Internet users world wide, which is revolutionary. Data was obtained from the Internet Public Library in the almanac section at http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0882184.html. The Internet has not only shrunk the world, but people everywhere with home computers can now gain access to goods and services throughout the world with the click of a mouse. The knowledge and information available is literally overwhelming and has become a living, breathing entity that continues expanding.

The second expanding megatrend is the shift of individuals from attaining an education in brick and mortar schools to online education coursework delivered over Internet to them in their homes. This has enabled people to pursue their educational goals in a more convenient and efficient manner and will soon create a $100 billion dollar industry, because the truth that knowledge is power still remains. This megatrend, called "webucation", was predicted by Peter Drucker, the business guru, in Forbes Magazine 4 years ago.

The third megatrend is taking place in the exciting home based business industry. Every 11 seconds across the globe another person starts a home business. People have come to realize that not only is working at a job not meeting their needs and desires, they can make more money at home due to online leverage and the tax break given to entrepreneurs. As people embark on these ventures a smooth transition is needed to shift from years of having a job mentality working for a boss or a company in their dream to working for oneself in one's own dream.

In conclusion, the convergence of these three gigantic business industry trends is empowering Internet entrepreneurs throughout the world to rise above their lifelong circumstances and reach out to take what belongs to them: time freedom, financial freedom, and peace of mind. But, to be able to move those mountains aside that have stood in their way, education and knowledge in wealth and self mastery is the key to success. This crucial knowledge, not available in schools, was at one time only known and understood by very wealthy individuals. It has now become possible to attain this knowledge in the form of webucation for those who have the vision and determination to propel themselves to the 6 and 7 figure income levels they could only dream about before.
