Simple Business - Amazing Benefits

Do you realize that you actually have what it takes to start your own simple home-based business? The business we chose and love offers some amazing benefits in addition to the financial rewards. For instance, as I type this blog entry, I am sitting in our hotel suite in the Intercontinental Hotel in Sydney, Australia. Visiting Australia has been a long dream of mine and here I am at a conference with friends and associates who share my lifestyle choices. We've been sight-seeing and learned some amazing facts about this wonderful country.

As the week progresses, we will learn some amazing facts about ourselves as well and what we are capable of achieving. You know, we are always capable of achieving more. All it takes is a decision followed by action. Why do we humans too often think of something we would like to do, like visit Australia, but allow ourselves to succumb to reasons we think our desire is unattainable? Our God-given ability to dream and believe only needs a little nourishment to take root and eventually grow into reality.

Look at my picture. I'm an average-looking person with average intelligence (well, maybe a little above average intelligence). I'm not famous nor do I come from a prestigious pedigree. But the very fact that I am a human being with a brain and emotions gives me abilities far greater than even I am aware of. Yet...
Join me on this quest to live a life free of limits. I'm in the process of achieving one major goal. How about you? Are you ready to start a business that will offer you more amazing benefits than you can imagine?

To Your Success.

Beyond Mediocrity

Is it time for you to move beyond mediocrity? Are you ready to leave the 97 percent and join the 3 percent who dare to challenge the status quo? Everyone has their reason for staying in their so-called comfort zone. But how comfortable is it to live on someone else's terms? How comfortable is having your life, that is your time and income, dictated by someone else? Most people assume this is how life is meant to be and are afraid to consider alternatives.

Entrepreneurship is certainly not for everyone. For one thing, it requires a leap of faith. It also requires tenacity. A simple business is still a business which requires time and effort to succeed. With that said, the rewards of entrepreneurship are so worth whatever investment is required. What is the price of mediocrity after all? I know full well the price of mediocrity because I spent way too many years paying it. The price I paid was my time, energy, and sense of personal fulfillment. I lived in fear of losing a job which enabled me to barely make ends meet. At the end of my 11-hour workday, I was too exhausted to do anything. Bottom line, I was used up by an ungrateful employer.

When I first learned of a home business opportunity that lets me decide how much money I want to earn, I thought it sounded too good to be true. After I did my due diligence, however, I learned that this is indeed a solid and very lucrative business. I am so grateful I had the courage to make this leap of faith. Afer all, it was a big adjustment going from being an employee to being self-employed. I had to adjust to waking up when I wake up instead of when an alarm clock goes off. I had to adjust to deciding how to structure my time. I had to adjust to the idea of payday being any day and even everyday instead of receiving a set amount every two weeks. I had to adjust to the idea of vacationing as often as I desire instead of budgeting my limited annual time off. Don't worry - I think I'm making the adjustments just fine.

If you think you're ready to move beyond mediocrity, fill out the form on this page. There is no obligation. It gives me a lot of satisfaction to help others move from a life of mediocrity to one full of possibilities.

Blank Becomes Entrepreneur

In my case, it's Registered Nurse Becomes Entrepreneur. For my husband, it reads Retired Air Force Maintenance Officer Becomes Entrepreneur. Our daughter's title is Teacher Becomes Entrepreneur. And the list goes on and on. The bottom line is that anyone with a dream of doing something different with their education and skills can decide to be self-employed.

Some people, like our daughter, made this decision at a young age. Others of us stayed in "the box" and worked for someone else until we found the courage to set ourselves free. We eventually decided that "enough is enough" and if "blank" can become an entrepreneur, so can I. Wow! What a Concept! We are now free to spend our time the way we decide. We can be creative with our business and do it our way instead of someone else's way. And we now have unlimited potential for financial success. No more waiting and hoping for a raise - just set goals, do the thing, and expect the rewards. I really am glad I made this choice.

How about you? Is it time for you to decide to become an entrepreneur? You already have what it takes. Just decide and then your former title can fill in the blank. I look forward to hearing your story and helping you decide on the next chapter. Fill out the form and I'll call you back. It really is amazingly simple.

To Your Success,

The Home Based Business Boom

Is it just me, or does there seem to be a sudden boom in home-based businesses? Yesterday's local paper had a pull-out business section devoted to home-based businesses. I remember several years ago telling my hairdresser that my eventual goal was to work from home. Her response was, "Yeah, right. Wouldn't we all like to be able to do that." At the time it may have sounded far-fetched but not anymore. In my last blog I explored why people make this decision.

Now, let's explore the different kinds of opportunities that can be operated from home. Business niche ideas usual arise from someone needing a product or service they cannot find so they decide to start a business to help themselves as well as others. I have a friend with a home-based welding business. Our daughter has a business providing products for home-based candle consultants. Another friend was unsuccessful with a cleaning franchise. And there's the skin care franchise and other home party type businesses. If you have a passion or hobby, you can find a way to market it. Some examples are cookware, storage containers, children's toys, and home decorations.

Franchises are often the easiest businesses to get into because they are established, usually have a model to follow, and offer training and products. When I was looking for a business, my main criteria were an easy-to-follow and proven business model, authentic leadership, affordable start-up costs, and quality products. The market for personal development products is becoming more lucrative by the day. I take great pride in being able to offer people something I truly believe in and know can help them achieve their personal and fincancial goals.

If you are exploring options for getting you out of a stress-filled job and in charge of your life, fill out the form on this page, and I will contact you within 24 hours. The home-based business boom may be beckoning you into its ranks.
