Setting A Schedule, A Crucial Factor

Many times when Mom starts working from home, it does not mean that
she has relieved herself of the duties of being a stay at home mom.

She still has:

1) Children to tend too.
2) House to Clean
3) Laundry to Do
4) Gardening
5) Meal preparation

So it is very important that your work time be organized. Set yourself
a schedule when you will WORK. Then stick to your schedule. Or your
New Business may become No more than a hobby.

Motivating Factors to Starting a Home Business

Motivating Factors to Starting a Home Business

Thoughts: Many times. I have wondered what Motivates people to want to work from home. There are several factors that One must look at in order to properly address this question.

Factors to Consider:

1) Are they currently at home due to loss of job, downsizing or maybe a stay at home mom/dad.

2) Is it the need to be in control of their lives. Not necessarily the money but what it represents. TIME AND FREEDOM.

3) Maybe the extra income is the Motivating factor. An extra 100.00 or more a month could greatly improve any household.

So with just looking at the 3 options above. One can conclude that anyone with a willingness to succeed should be successful in wanting to do a Home Business. Yet only a small percentile are Successful. WHY??? Just because someone has the willingness or desire to want to work from home does not mean that they have the same motivating factors.

For instance look at these scenarios:

1) A stay at home mom/dad who just wants to make a little extra money. Does not really need it. Just would like to have it. ( What is the motivation here?) Very little...

2) A dad/mom who is the main supporter of the family who just lost their job to downsizing. They have to earn an income. ( What is the motivation here?) Very STRONG.....

3) A person who is just wanting to start a career from home. Has the resources and the time to make it happen. ( What is the motivation here?) Very Good...

So What Can We Conclude From This?

Conclusion:

Different motivating factors can greatly increase or decrease ones willingness to succeed in a Home Business. Having a Desire to want something better does not make it happen. One must both have a desire and willingness to Achieve. Only then will they be Motivated to Overcome Obstacles.

Other Factors to Bear in Mind:

Just because a person feels out a Survey requesting to want to work from home or fills out a form on a Capture page. Does not mean that when you call them up they will really want to do anything at all. They just filled out a Survey or Form. They have a Desire to want to do it, but not really the desire to make it happen. Always bare this in mind. Do not become discouraged in your DESIRE TO ACHIEVE. Stay Focused on Your Goals. It is your responsibility to keep driving ahead. The only person that can ultimately cause you to lose your dream is yourself. Don't quit dreaming.

It's Just Not My Time

Its Just Not My Time:

If time runs out and I am still waiting behind, please don't forget me it is just not my time.When you find that next Big adventure and you want me to come too. Remember sometimes the LORD means those adventures just for you.If with the many times I fail to stand beside you as a friend, it is not that I am criticizing, just waiting again.

All to many times when newbies get started in a home business they are often counting on family and friends to help support them in their new adventure. Many times they get disappointment because someone did not join. Please always remember that they are still your family and friends and will be their to support you. Maybe not by joining your new business but they are the crutches that help you to stand when you feel you can't go on again.

A stay at home who had cancer and wanted to raise her little boy. God made it possible. She became a Success.

Please Don't Say NO

Last night as I ended my day my little boy came to me asking for chocolate milk as usual. I asked him to wait a moment to where I could just sit and take a breather. ALL he wanted was a glass of chocolate milk. So we went to the kitchen and got his chocolate milk. Then he started to cry and I asked What's the matter, to which he continued crying harder. He then spoke, “I don't want you to Say NO. “

My mind immediately went back through the course of the Day. Had I said NO that many times to my little man? I began to ponder and think. Then it occurred to me what he was really trying to say, Mommy just come and play with me. My heart sank as I looked at his tear drenched face. He just wants mommy to play.

Immediately we got up off the couch and went and started playing Monsters Inc. It does not matter HOW good I am he just wanted me there. IN his room, his space to where he felt we were in his world.

Parents please remember You are the only ones who can make your child’s day. Love them with affection. Hug them ‘til you can't hug No more and Always let them know they are the center of your World.

Setting Realistic Goals a Crucial Step

Setting Realistic Goals is a Crucial Step in having a Successful Online Business.


Setting Goals for Yourself:

You need a WHY... Why do you want to work for yourself. WHY... What is your motivating factor? Do you have Goals set for yourself. Both short and longterm? If not this would be a GREAT place to start. Setting realistic goals for yourself is a Crucial step in having a Successful business.

Cannot Serve Two Masters:

I have seen several business ventures since I started online almost 3 years ago. Not all of them have proven successful. One thing I can tell you is Do Not be a Hopper. Find something (service or product) and devote yourself to it. You will have more credibility with people than if you are in a dozen different programs. You cannot serve 2 masters at the same time. (rephrased you cannot devote all your time and energies to several programs, nor be fair to all your members in the different programs)


Think about what it is that you are wanting to Accomplish. Set Goals and then work toward them. Get yourself a Dream board and put pictures on it. Put that new home or new car or maybe a Paid in Full notice anything that will help to motivate you everyday. Remember this is a Business. So treat it as such. You have to have Goals. Both short and long term ones.

If There's a Will There's a Way:

These are some of the things that I have done. That helped to Motivate me. I never gave up on My Dreams. Nor should you. If there is a Will there is a Way. Be the Sponsor that you want yours to be. Do not look to Blame anyone else for you failures. Ultimately it all lies on the person in the mirror. You have to be a Digger. (an information getter) If you have questions about a product or service. ASK questions. Until you are satisfied. Remember it is a Business. Treat it as such. Would you let a contractor come into your home and start digging up the place without first wanting to know WHY? of course not. Be the same way with your business. It will serve you well.
