Start a Home Based Business by Reconnecting With Your Dream
Today I am here to talk to you about how to discover the Hidden Entrepreneur in you, the secret of what it takes to start your own home based business. I will talk about reconnecting with that dream from a long time ago. I won't be talking about how to hook up a Business VOIP.
Your Current Reality, The First Key to a Successful Home Based Business
What are the principals to bring out the Hidden Entrepreneur? Well, there are a lot of them. Far too many to discuss here, but what I want to do is focus on four key points
1. Your current reality,
2. Your vision,
3. Your motivation,
4. A world full of choices.
Let me start by telling you a story to see if you can see these points. I will be talking about a 16 year old kid I knew back 1964. This 16 year kid knew his current reality. He didn't have the money but he had a vision. He wanted a 1957 Coal Black Chevy. How many of you know what those look like? He could picture it. He could see it. He could see Polishing it in his driveway.
He could feel the wind blowing in his face on a cool summer day with his classmates talking and laughing in the front and back seats during lunch hour on the way to buy lunch out instead of eating the awful school lunch.
Jobs were hard to find but he was motivated. He diligently Read ads in newspaper until one day he saw an ad-frosty malt salesman wanted for the girls basketball tournaments.
He called the ad and they said come on down. It is a straight commission job we need the help.
There were no separate territories. Anyone could sell in the gym wherever he wanted. There was no training but he saw what to do and with his creativity figured out what the other salesman couldn't.
All he did was go clear up to the top of the stands, the old guys were too lazy to do that. They just stood half way up and yelled Frosty Malts. Frosty Malts. I guess the people were too embarrassed to yell back from that far away that they wanted one. When someone wanted one, he just stood there a while. Pretty soon someone else raised their hand and then someone else and then someone else. His bag was empty in nothing flat. He ran back to get more and emptied his bag again in nothing flat. I'll tell you what happened to him later.
The reason I told you this story is that the kid applied all these things I am going to be teaching you today. They are clearly demonstrated in that frosty malt story and he didn't even know he was using them.
We are going to go to some degree of detail in each of these areas and some of them may really strike a cord with you. Some might not be for you they might be for someone else. But I just ask you to sit tight because these 4 areas cover a very broad spectrum of possibilities
ONCE AGAIN
1. Your current reality,
2. Your vision,
3. Your motivation,
4. A world full of choices.
1.Lets take YOUR CURRENT REALITY, what is YOUR CURRENT REALITY. How does that apply to us as budding entrepreneurs and home business builders? We simply need to look at where we are today and why we are there.
The kid in the Frosty malt story. He knew he didn't have the money that was his CURRENT REALITY. We are - where we are - usually because of self-imposed limitations. We don't believe we can be anyone different or do anything different.
Our parents, friends and family, have influenced us everyone tells us we need to go to school. We need to get a good job. We need to get a good retirement. Then we get out of high school and away from these influences and we end up today wherever we are.
So where are you today? Retired, working 70 hours a week, a stay at home parent, an executive, a blue collar worker? Do you have the amount of money you want to buy what you want? If you are you like most people you are trading time for dollars and that is your CURRENT REALITY. You believe the only way to get more money is to work harder and longer. I used to believe this. I used to work 70 hours a week. I did it for 19 years with my own computer business. I loved what I was doing but I hated that it took so much time. I missed out on a lot of life that now I wish I had. But several years ago I found an easy to start network marketing home based business for $1000 where I could make more in a lot less than 70 hours a week.
I will be posting videos on You Tube and adding to my blog as I continue to bring my success secrets to you. Watch for my next article.
