Work at Home Productivity Tips –

This article is so important. One of the main things that you need to be able to do with your business is to have fun and enjoy it, or it won`t last long. Of course there are always going to be some things that you may not feel like doing, that is normal, (and if you can hand them off, all the better!) but your business needs to be something that excites you, not something that feels like a ball and chain, or it is merely another job. It can be so much more.

One thing that I recently found myself pondering is how getting sidetracked in your vision for your business can effect your energy and attitude.

If you find yourself struggling with that, maybe it`s a good time to do a review of your goals and business vision and mission statement. Ask yourself – Are you on track?

Here`s Carrie with her words of wisdom on the subject…

BE YOURSELF FOR BUSINESS SUCCESS – Carrie Lauth

The way that you see your business has a huge impact on what your business becomes. If you view your business as fun, something you can’t wait to get to each day, your business will be those things. If you envision your business as serious or tedious, it will take on that form. Your attitude about your business will show through to others and will impact how they respond to you and your sales message.

Once you learn the basics of internet marketing, there are no rules about your business. You should feel free to have fun and do things the way you want to. Feel free to be unique and set your own goals. You may read a book or hear a story about how another person manages their business, and their way may work great for them. However, the way they do business may not work for you at all.

To keep things fun, stay positive about each aspect of your business. If there is a particular task that you don’t like and find yourself procrastinating about it, hire a virtual assistant to do that task for you. When you are able to concentrate on the things you like doing most, you will feel energized and you will want to take those things head on. Building a business around your strengths is the fastest, easiest way to growth.

You have surely heard the old saying “you can’t please everyone”. When it comes to your business, take that saying to heart. If someone doesn’t like the design of your website or the way you write your content, so be it. You can’t please everyone, and that person may not have anything to do with your target market at all.

As an example, I recently had two people unsubscribe from one of my newsletters. The first said that my information was too basic and that they weren’t learning anything. The second person said that I was sending them so much meaty content that they simply couldn’t absorb it all. Who was right? If you are consistently serving your target market you’re on the right track. Forget the naysayers, not everyone will be your fan and that’s ok.

Sometimes, you have to walk down a long, bumpy road to success in your business. Keep focusing on your goals and the person you will become as a result of the journey. If you were given a choice to have immediate success at a business you hated or to have success in two years with a business you loved, would you keep working those two years to have the happiness and success you want?

Unfortunately, no one can tell you how long it will take for you to meet your goals with your online business. But if you keep working at it, having fun and put in consistent effort, you will get there. Best of all, it will be on your terms.
