Is Working From Home Really For You?

Forget the hype! No, NOT everyone can make big money
working from home.

Is it possible to make a six figure income working from home?

YES!.

Is it possible to enjoy more freedom in your schedule, own your own business, fire your boss, and all of the other work from home fantasies?

YES!

Can you do it?

Well, now that ones not as easy to answer. I cant solve that riddle for you. I CAN, however, let you know what working from home really involves so you can make that decision for yourself.

MAKING CHANGES

In some respects, working under a supervisor is a life of ease. You have certain responsibilities, and you take care of them, but thats as far as it goes. Working your own business is NOTHING like that. All the decisions are yours to make, all the work is yours to do, and all the success and profit OR mistakes and failures will be yours as well.

Working your own business not only requires a change in what you are doing, but in how you think. No longer will the luxury of letting someone else handle it be around. You have to step up your level of responsibility if you want to succeed.

DESIRE

Sure, everyone desires more money, a better house, more time off, a nicer car, and all that. However, there is a BIG difference between sitting on the couch saying, "I wish I had a car like that," and having the desire to take the ACTION necessary to earn the money for the car of your dreams.

There is work that will need to be done. Its NOT going to just happen upon a wish. The kind of desire it takes to make it while working from home is a constant ACTIVE desire, not just a passive want.

COURAGE

Working from home will bring about new challenges for you. It takes courage to step up and meet those challenges. Each stage as you progress will require you to learn new skills, face different obstacles, and complete the necessary tasks at hand.

Its not easy doing things differently, but unless you do the job youll never progress. This is where your desire to succeed will be tested.

DISCIPLINE

Trust me on this one. It is SO easy to start wanting to live the benefits of working from home before youve earned them. Sure, youre the boss, you can take a day off whenever you want, but then nothing gets done that day either.

You will need to be able to discipline yourself, motivate yourself, and regulate your activities. Youll still need to work toward goals, meet schedules, and plan for the future.

Lack of continued effort is probably the number one cause of failure in home businesses. Many, many people have the desire, some have the courage, but most still falter when it comes to getting the work of building their own business done day after day.

Its going to take a while to get where you want, and it will take continued effort not only to reach your goals, but maintain that lifestyle once youve gotten there.

Working from home is NOT an occupation reserved for any sort of elite group. Others that have proven successful at it are no better than you, me, or anybody else.

It REALLY is possible to make the dream of working from home come true. Yes, anyone can do it.

Its simply a matter of having an active desire, courage to make changes, and the discipline to see it all through.

So, IS working from home REALLY for you?

Only you can answer that.
