Will you someday make a fortune network marketing? Some people really do pull in fortunes, while others are happy just to replace the income from their job. However successful you want to be in your own home business you will need to develop the skill of applying focus.
Running a successful home business is the dream for many people today. Whether you want to spend more time with the kids, make a few bucks while you’re home anyway, fire your boss, or simply avoid wasting time in the daily commute, a home based network marketing business can be the top work at home solution.
However, it is not as easy as some people want you to think. Pick up a copy of Ann Sieg’s free report The 7 Lies Of Network Marketing to see what I mean. The quit rate in network marketing or MLM business is huge. Around 90% of new recruits will quit. This gives MLM a bad reputation. But did you know that the dropout rate for any other type of startup home business is just as high?
It’s not MLM that is the problem. It is hard running any kind of home business. And the main problem that most people have can be summed up in one word:
Focus.
Distractions, interruptions, loneliness, spending too much time on unproductive tasks … working from home with no boss hanging over us, we all suffer from some if not all of these issues. They all lead to bad time management and lack of focus, and that means, less money coming in.
The worst thing we can do is constantly switch from one task to another during the day. Every time we divert our focus to a new task, we waste time getting into the ‘zone’ of the new task. Recent research suggested that it can take as much as 20 minutes to get fully into the zone of whatever we are doing. Only then are we wholly focused on the task and able to work most effectively.
Yes, have frequent breaks. Take 10 minutes to stretch, relax, fetch a glass of water. But do not switch on the TV or make a non-business call that is likely to stop you getting back to work. bring a pen so you can write down ideas that come up during your break.
Set a schedule and stick to it, without distractions and interruptions. Focus on your top priority for the day, and do not start any other work until it is finished. Or for longer term projects, allocate a certain number of hours each day to it, and catch up with your email, calls etc in the rest of the time. But however you do it, hang on to your focus through all of your work time.
