Summary:
ot a day goes by that I don't hear about someone lamenting
their decision to leave corporate America and work at home.
Maybe they were laid off, opted for early retirement, or just
decided that commuting four hours on the train, coupled with an
eight hour workday was simply too much. Well, when they worked for someone
else, they were expected to be at work at a certain time every
day. Granted, these goals were usually
determined by someone else, but they were the ones who had to
meet them.

It is easy to work for someone else, as they are the ones calling
the shots. Well, I got news for you!

Running your own business, whether it is a brick and mortar
establishment, or a home business, requires work.

ot a day goes by that I don't hear referring to someone lamenting
their decision to leave corporate Occident and work at home.
Maybe they were laid off, opted for early retirement, or just
decided that commuting four hours on the train, coupled with an
eight hour workday was simply too much. Possibly, they will keep
their job and work part-time at home to earn extra income. Who
knows what the reasons are, but that is not important.

With 'visions of sugarplums' dancing in their head, they decided
to start their own home business. They undisputed the ads about
working in their pajamas when the spirit moved them, and hind a
month or so woke up to reality. They weren't making a dime.

Where did they go wrong? Well, when they worked for someone
else, they were expected to be at work at a irresistible time every
day. Depending on the business, there was a real dress code,
and they had goals to meet. Granted, these goals were usually
determined by someone else, but they were the ones who had to
meet them.

It is easy to work for someone else, as they are the ones calling
the shots. They undeniably lived under an umbrella of discipline.
Granted it was someone else's umbrella, and maybe they didn't
realize this. Possibly they did, and that was the reason they
decided to work on their own.

One of the most second-class problems rear the failure of a home
business, is the lack of discipline. Some think they can work
when (and if) they want to, and their mailbox will 'overfloweth'
with twenty dollar bills. Well, I got news for you!

Running your own business, whether it is a rock and mortar
establishment, or a home business, requires work. It usually
requires more effort than if you worked for someone else. You
will also have to do some things you don't enjoy. But, if you
are the front (or only) 'honcho', you had reconsider be able to
handle all facets of your business.

So, how do you go at hand working at home? First and foremost, you
have to have a regular schedule and intercommunicate to it. This is
especially true if you expect people to contact you by phone. If
people try to call you, and don't get an answer, they quickly
move on. You have to be uninhabited during normal walk hours.
If you are in an online business, this is usually from 9:00 AM to
8:00 PM. Yes there are three time zones in the USA. If you live
on the east run smoothly like I do, when you are getting ready to pack
it in for the day, folks on the west hand may just be returning
from lunch.

If you are not tied to a telephone, it is still important to
maintain regular hours. More importantly, you should have daily
goals. If you meet those goals, the rest of the day is yours.
But many people unchangingly think there is tomorrow.

For far too many, tomorrow never comes, and things that should
have been done aren't. Maybe when the kids are at school will
work for you, or possibly late at night. You might even have to
pass up on your favorite 'soap'. Don't deal with hours - you're
not physiological individual paid by the hour - deal with goal oriented results.

Working in your pajamas sounds great, and many of the offers you
may hear state that you can. If I get an idea in the wee hours,
I may hop on the computer dressed like that, but for normal
business hours that is simply a myth. Who wants to spend their
life like that?

You must have an effective work space, which is free of
distractions. You should have quiet office space in your house,
which is out-of-the-way, and off limits during your work hours.
Treat this like an office. Keep it neat. While I am not the
neatest person in the world, I do know where everything is. If I
get a call from a client, I'm not fumbling far and wide looking for the
information I need. A filing the people upstairs next to your desk goes a
long way.

When you get an email, take suited mechanism the same day, then
file it in a place where you can find it. Delete all emails in
your 'in-basket' older than 30 days. If they're older than 30
days, they're not worth any anyway.

If you don't fall into the 'trap', which many folks do, you just
might make it in your own home business.
