Hi All,
Today I would like to ramble on about scheduling your time to take action in your home business. This really is something that involves planning and staying with the plan on a daily basis. Every home legitimate home business out there is going to take time to put together a successful, profitable program. Anyone who tells you different is not telling you the truth. So let's look at some good guidelines to set up a work schedule.
1. Pick a specific time every day that you are going to work. Let's say you get home from the job at 4:00 PM. You want to relax, get cleaned up, maybe eat some dinner, thenyou are ready to go. In this case then you want to set you're work schedule say from 6-8 PM. VERY IMPORTANT: this gives you the rest of the evening for family time.
2. Now you started at 6 PM make sure you stop at 8 PM. Trust me it is very easy to get all caught up in what you are doing because you are excited to get things going full blast. When the 8 o'clock hour comes around, call it a day. You will be all charged and ready to go the next day.
3. Pick your weekly schedule ie;Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, or whatever days you are willing to spend building your business. I do Monday thru Friday but do not schedule any in home work on the weekend. Now if I get bored, especially if I am alone, I usually jump in and do something but I do not schedule any time on the weekend. I got enough of that from the job.
4. Make sure you are making meaningful progress on building your business and not just busy work. If nothing else find some training materials relating to marketing or PPC or whatever concerns your business and go thru it so that it might help you somewhere down the road.
5. Stay with your work schedule no matter what or how long it takes. It is very easy to say "I think I'll skip today there isn't much hapening anyway". That is the kiss of death! Soon you find yourself taking off more than you are working. Remember to be accountable to the boss and you are it! If what you are doing doesn't feel right, it probably isn't.
That's about it in a nutsheel, but it is very important if you are commited to making a better life for yourself and your family. Once you get your business built into this monster that runs on auto-pilot, you can be as lazy as I am...er, I mean, as you want to be. Until then stay focused and stay commited to the task at hand.
Until next tiime...Best of Luck,
Terry
