Working from home has got to be one of the best ways out there to earn a living. Flexibility in your time. You choose your hours. No travel or commute unless you choose to, and extra time with the family as a result. Or extra time for your hobbies!
Succeeding in a home business gives us a life we normally only dream of.
However€¦€¦
Some people seem to do this effortlessly, others are slower and you can see the struggle. And others just never succeed at all.
We all want to be in the effortless camp. So what’s the difference? Why is there such a big gap between those who do so well, and those who crash and burn? Sometimes almost immediately!
This article is to clear up some of the mystery surrounding working from home. And that fact that it just might not be suitable for some people.
First thing is your desire. Why are you even thinking working from home would be the thing for you?
We can have 2 things here. Either a very strong why. The reason why you need to earn money. And usually the why is that we cant get what we are looking for from a traditional job. Otherwise we’d just go get a job and be done with it!
If you are looking for something extra, something quicker. Something that has the all important potential of flexibility or financial freedom. If you are looking for something different then working from home might just be for you.
The other option, if your you don’t have a real burning desire (like being broke, losing a job something really motivating!) Then you need very good discipline and work ethics.
Many people with good discipline succeed at network marketing. People who are self motivated, can hold themselves responsible for their actions. And the bottom line is people who can get on and do the actions and work that gets them the results in their home business.
If you are someone who needs to be accountable to a boss in order to get anything done. Then working from home may be more of a struggle for you! Doesn’t mean it cant be done. Learning new skills is all part of the process and the great news is a work ethic can be learnt.
So the first key to success in a home business is your desire. Either your reason why or your discipline.
The second thing you need to have success in a home business or network marketing is some time to dedicate to it.
Now I know that sounds pretty obvious! But this really is a consideration. Most home business you can run on 7-10 hours a week as a minimum. But unless you have current spare time where you sit and do nothing wondering what to do now! Then something in your current schedule is going to have to give way to create the time. What are you going to give up, even if its just TV time, in order to succeed in your home business? And are you prepared to sacrifice that?
The last key to success in a home business is your stickability! Now I suspect that’s not a real word. However it is exactly the thing you need to be successful in network marketing.
Things do not always go to plan. And you need to be able to stick with it and get things back on track. If you give up your network marketing business then I can guarantee it wont ever be successful for you! Got to be in it to win it! And preferably actually doing something in it too!
So if you want the secret to success in working from home or network marketing. Its your desire to do it and your ability to commit the time and stick with it.
Check you have these absolute basics in place and then go for it, everything else you’ll learn as you go!
