You live in a fast food and micro wave society.
You probably get frustrated when the computer doesn't boot up instantly.
Impatience reigns when your goal isn't reached in a week or so.
This mindset makes you a prime candidate to enrich someone else's pocket with dreams of easy money.
You've seen the ads...
"Work in your pjs.
" "Have control of your own time.
" "Make 7 figures from your dining room table in just hours a day.
" Are these headlines real? Can someone really do all this in a home based business? Sure they can.
Just don't expect to do it immediately...
except the working in your pjs part.
All you have to do is not get dressed, but you do have to work.
The Process May Be Simple but It's Not Easy Let's say you buy the "how to" for an affiliate home based business that promises riches beyond your imagination.
If it is a good program it will give you a formula for implementing it.
Yes, there will be a number of things ready for you to use...
a web site, for instance.
It may even be a really cool looking site with amazing graphics and a snazzy video.
You say to yourself, "Great! I could never do this myself.
" If you have a good program, you will find included ways to drive traffic to your web page.
This involves work.
You have to spend time at the computer doing some writing, going to various sites, even setting up a blog to get people to find your site.
You can do all this in your pjs if you want, but if you are going to make even a small amount of money, you need to do the work.
As some might say, "Put the pedal to the metal.
" Your Time is Your Own Yes, you can work whenever you want when you have your own home based business.
The operative word here is "work.
" You have to structure your time so that you do actual work on your business.
At first, you will need to spend a great number of hours at your computer letting people know that you have a business.
It doesn't matter when you spend this time.
If you are a night person you can sleep until noon or even 3:00 p.
m.
, but you will need to get yourself going and spend a few concentrated hours each day bringing traffic to your site.
Notice I said "concentrated hours.
" This means you have to focus.
Work in blocks of time with a small, with the emphasis on "small" amount of time for a break.
Stay away from time wasters such as email, Facebook, texting and such unless you really don't want to turn the dollar signs in your eyes to dollars in your wallet.
A home based business is doable.
Few make it happen because they aren't willing to spend the time and effort needed to make it a reality.
