Principles for a Successful Home Based Business!

When we start a business opportunity the principles we have always play a big part in who we are and what we become. Failure is an inside job and so is success and if you want to win you have to first win the war in your mind. This is where the battles are either won or lost. We have to unlearn wrong thinking and relearn right thinking, it is that simple. We cannot go around rude, complaining, selfish or just not nice and expect to see positive results, that is not going to happen. It is all in the way we see things as an individual, you cannot let the failures outside of you get on the inside of you, wake up and look at where you are going in life. There are things we have no control over, who our parents are, where we are from, the color of our skin or our gender. However, there are things we do have some control over and that is our thought life. It all plays out the same way, if you are a positive person in private, it will overflow into your public life and effect others in a positive way, the same is true if you are a negative person, you will then in turn get negative results. Your attitude will effect those around you, either good or bad, you decide. For those of you seeking a home based business, you will fall into one of these following categories and you also need to remember the main reason for seeking a home based business. ~ A hard worker who is tired of the corporate world and desperately wants to work from home. ~ A stay at home mom who needs extra money and doesn't want to work some low wage job. ~People who are happy with their career and/or job, but would like to build a business of their own with extra money for college or retirement, an extra $200 or $300 can go a long way. ~Someone experienced in business/marketing that would like to add an additional stream of income to their life and these individuals would be far ahead of the game, But why do some on-line businesses fail while others succeed, why does any business endeavor fail for that matter? It goes back to the principles we live by. A person can have all the knowledge to do a specific job but if they do not have the work ethics and mind-set to get the job done, they will just be spinning their wheels, wasting valuable time for both themselves and the ones in their inner circle. Some unsuccessful people tell themselves that as soon as they achieve considerable success or discover some unseen talent, then they will turn their attention into helping someone else. This attitude never works, for others can always tell your true motives, may take some time but when money is involved people become very skeptical and for good reason. Many people that fail do so because they think of no one but themselves, they worry that someone is going to get ahead of them, what others may think of them, and they scramble to make sure no one gets their part and continually puts their focus on protecting themselves. The problem with this is, all your energy and attention goes to yourself and you cannot do very much business with just yourself. You may need to learn a new way of thinking where others come first. This may take some time but remember, this is your decision and no one can or will make it for you. We are the only ones that have that control and that is a God given gift. How many gifted and talented people are out there that could have done a wonderful online business from home if they just possessed the right work principles in life. Being positive about themselves and what they want from life is a way to focus your attention. Even if you are not at the job you want right now but have plans to begin, with the right principles of the mind, the wait and ride will be so much better and go by much faster than first expected. For what we can see, we can be. A vision has to come first before anything is ever materalized in the natural, but the individual has to take action and how they treat themselves and others plays a big part. ~Always be appreciative when people do nice things for you, either at work or home. In general, people do not have to do anything extra for us and when they do, let them know how grateful you are. ~Be a person that encourages others, everyone needs a comforting word from time to time. Always see people you come in contact with in your business as being a ten in your eyes, for when others see you appreciate them and see their potential in your eyes, they will strive to be what you see them as. This will not only help with your business but it will help you all around in life. So in pursuing your home-based business or any business opportunity for that matter, remember your thoughts because your attitude will effect those around you either good or bad. I love to read Proverbs 4:7 from the Bible~. Wisdom is the principal thing; this says is all for me, for in anything you set out to do if you focus on the principle of maintaining a positive attitude and one that sets out to help others while you are helping yourself, there is no limit in the success you will attain in life. You decide what kind of mind-set you are going to have for success, it all depends on your attitude and the principles you put in place for your life.
