There are many legitimate work at home jobs you can do.
  You just have to know where to look and how to find them.
  You need to begin to view the world through lenses of opportunity.
  Many people have ideas, but they don't know how to turn their ideas into income.
  You have to move out of an employee mindset and into an entrepreneurial mindset.
  Here I will list 5 ways to find legitimate work at home jobs by always being on the lookout for opportunities.
 

1. Can you merge some of your interests?  For instance:  If you like photography and kids, you could teach photography to kids.
     Think about what interests you have and figure out a way you can merge your interests to come up with some legitimate work at home jobs.
   Do you have a love for animals and drawing?  You could create greeting cards with personalized drawings of animals.
    
2. Take a look around your area.
     Are there any problems or complaints that need solving? There's a lady who created a business to help father's and daughters connect.
     She does this by scheduling events such as: daddy and daughter balls, carriage rides, or any idea the dad comes up with.
     Why?  She saw a problem:  many women who struggle with depression, insecurities, low self esteem, promiscuity, and abuse are often the outcome of a poor father-daughter relationship.
     This is why she decided to dedicate a portion of her life making sure fathers and daughters build and maintain a strong and solid relationship.
     Her business came from a passion she has.
   
3. Look at trends.
     Obesity is not a trend, it's more of an epidemic.
     But, people can create businesses to help others fight this problem.
     Are there any ideas you can come up with that could support them? Home based businesses are becoming very popular.
     People working at home will need help from time to time.
     You could become a virtual assistant to help these home based business owners out.
    
4. What personal experience or crisis have you been through?  Whatever it is, there are probably people who are going through the same thing you have come through.
     What are ways you could provide help and assistance to these people?  Could you create an ebook, or maybe a membership site for support?  
5. What skills or hobbies do you have?  Could you provide a service to someone who would benefit from your skills or your hobbies?  Are you good with computers, teaching children, decorating, gardening, landscaping etc? Service type jobs will usually bring in money quick.
   

Just remember, it takes ideas to make money, not money to make money.
  Start thinking outside the box.
  Creativity is the poor man's wealth.
  Be thinking, what can I consult on, teach about, write about, package up, or otherwise share my experience, knowledge, journey, or method?  Don't be afraid to invest in your self and in your dreams.
  There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living with legitimate work at home jobs, there's only a scarcity of desire and information about how to make it happen.
