We spend so much time trying to get the business up and running that we may end up becoming burned out and lose our motivation. There is so much to learn and
So you would like to start your own business at home? Given any thought about what that will take? There are a lot of things that must be taken into consideration prior to taking on that responsibility. Yep, I said "responsibility". To begin with, you should to understand a few things. It will take drive and determination to become successful. You will require a dedicated space, have a daily work plan, have a "business product" or a "service" that you will be marketing, and have the money and the determination to get it off and running. Let's begin with the "work area". Will there be an area of your house, basement, garage, or somewhere, you can utilize for your business in which you can not be interrupted and alone regularly? Many family members, especially children, think because you are at home it's play time. Many others, such as your wife, neighbors, family take it for granted you are home and must be "available" because you are there. You are saying, "No, that's not going to happen". Perhaps it won't, but it can present bigger problems than you can think of at the moment. Everyone needs to see what your goals are in order for this to work.. You will need a quiet "area" that is accommodating to you and suits what you actually are doing. Whatever you will be doing, have the space to do it in and do it comfortably within reason. You will be putting in a lot of time there, so make it comfy! Of course it should be well lit, be adequately supplied, and if possible it should be off by itself as much as can be done. Remember, you are at work! Now we have to have a business plan. Yes, you are the one in charge now. But you know what? The work still has to get done and now YOU AND YOU ALONE are finishing the work! Now when you take a break, get some coffee,watch a little TV... all work has stopped. That is right - CEASED! Haven't forgotten have you? - you are IT. Now you must define the length of the day,when you begin,and when to quit. If you can't define your parameters, you won't last long. Of course there will still be vacations, short days, and yes... long days. But set yourself limits and stick to them! Now we come to the service or product your business is promoting. You can be selling something that you have or have made yourself, or promoting another's product. That makes no difference whatsoever. There is most certainly an abundance of products to sell here in the web. Or you could sell a "service" such as writing, teaching what you know best, or any number of things. Then as I mentioned before, money and time. Does anyone out there have money any more? That is a hearty "NO" from the majority of us these days. What do you do then? Well, if you already have a job so you could begin "part time". You take your plan, set aside the time when you can do all we have discussed already, and get to work! Now here is where the word "grit" came from cause you will need it, but you can do it! There will be times you want to quit, but that's when you really need to put your head down and keep it going. This is why so many people work for someone else! This won't be easy... This will take what most people are not willing to give up - their precious time. Everyone wants to be a business owner. Most of us want the bulk of the money being made. Are you ready to give most of yourself to accomplish having your own business, are you really? Many more things can be said here, but they are not nearly as important as these. But I can say that I have started four businesses and can't describe the personal empowerment you get from having done so. You can always find a mentor, self help books, video's and now e-Books that can be of assistance. Even now, I will get you started by giving you a free e-Book if you will sign up with the info request so I can mail it to you.
