HOW TO REORGANIZE YOUR TIME TO ACCOMMODATE A HOME-BASED BUSINESSCopyright © Kevin PurfieldAlmost everyone needs or wants more money coming in, and with this desiremost would like to start some sort of extra income-producing project. The trouble is, not many of these people seem able to fit "a second job"into their time schedules.It's true that most people are busy, but extra time for some sort ofhome-based extra income-producing project can almost always be found.It may mean giving up or changing a few of your favorite pastimes -such as having a couple of beers with the guys or watching TV - but if youscore big with your extra income project, you will have all the time you wantfor doing whatever you want to do.The first thing to do is to sit down with pencil and paper and list yourdaily schedule. What time do you wake up? Then step-by-step, listeverything you do each day. Most people will find that they have aboutthree hours each day that can be utilized in a more constructive or efficient manner. As we've noted above, you may have to give up the timeyou waste in your local pub or a few television programs you watch,but it will be worth it in the long run.Efficient time management boils down to planning what you're going to do,and then doing it without backtracking. Start by making a list of the thingsyou want to do tomorrow, each evening before you go to bed. Scheduleyour trips to the store or wherever to coincide with the other thingsyou have to do, and with your trips to or from work. Organize your tripsto take care of as many things as possible while you're out of the house. Take stock of the time you spend standing around shooting the breeze - especially the time you spend on the telephone - and eliminate all thatisn't necessary.Whatever chores you have to do at home, set aside a specific time to dothem, and a specific amount of time to devote to them. For instance,just one hour a day devoted to yard work would probably make your propertythe envy of all your neighbors. Don't try to do a week's work in one big flurry.Whether it's painting your house, fixing leaky faucets, or mowing your lawn and trimming your shrubs, do a part of it, or one particular job each day,and you'll be amazed at your progress.Take care of all your mail the day you receive it. Don't let those billsand letters pile up on you. If you're unable to pay a bill immediately,file it in a special place that's visible, and note on the envelope the date you intend to pay it. Answer your letters the same day you get them.The important thing is to think of time as your most valuable asset,because it is. So organize! Decide what you have to do, and what you want to do. From there, it's just a matter of arranging priorities.Once you start listing and planning what you want to do, and then carryout your plans, you'll find plenty of "extra time" for handling virtuallyany kind of home-based income-producing project. People in general maynot like routines or schedules, but without some sort of plan as to whatis supposed to be done, the world would be mired in mass confusion.Laws, ordinances and regulations are for the purpose of guiding people.We live according to an accepted plan or way of life, and the better wecan organize ourselves, the more productive and happy we become.The secret of all financially successful people is simply that they areorganized and do not waste time. Think about it. Review your own activities,and then see if you can't find a couple of extra hours in each day for more constructive accomplishments.When you begin planning, and then when you really become involvedin an extra in come-producing endeavor, you should work it exactlyas you have organized your regular day-to-day activities - on a time-efficient basis. Do what has to be done immediately. Don't try to get done in an hour something that's realistically going totake a week. Plan out on paper what you have to do - what you want to do- and when you are going to do it. Then get right on each projectwithout procrastination.Finally, and above all else, when you're organizing your time and yourbusiness, be sure to set aside some time for relaxation. Be sure toschedule time when you and your spouse can be together. You must not involve yourself in anything to an extent that you excludeother people - particularly your loved ones - from your life.Taking stock of the time you waste each day, and from there, reorganizingyour activities is what it's all about. It's a matter of becoming more efficient in the use of your time. It's really easy to do, and you willnot only accomplish a lot more, you will also find greater fulfillmentin your life.Resource Box ---------------------------------------------------------------Kevin Purfield owns the Wealth System Online Resource Directorywhere you can find everything you need to start,run and grow a home basedinternet business at:http://www.wealthsystemonline.com/pluginprofits.htm -------------------------------------------------------------
