- 4. In the past a job meant job security and a constant income; today, with the struggling economy, it has become obvious that jobs no longer offer the security they used to.
- 5. Starting your own home based business puts your future financial destiny in your own hands. Peter Drucker said it best when he said, “The best way to predict the future is to create it.”
- 6. No job could pay you the salary that you could earn by building your own home business. Top network marketers earn millions of dollars in commissions each month.
- 7. Colonel Saunders, Bill Gates, Martha Stewart, and countless others have followed their dreams, pursued their passions, and turned their home based businesses into multibillion- dollar corporations, but what sets them apart from the rest of us is their mindset.

- 17. Most of the skills you need to be a successful businessperson are skills that can be acquired. Acquiring those skills starts with the belief that you have the ability to learn them. In a fascinating study, children were divided into two groups.
- 18. One group was only taught how the brain worked and that they could learn to improve their intelligence. The other group was taught various study techniques but were not taught that intelligence could be learnt.
- 19. The astounding result of the study was that the children who really believed intelligence could be taught, actually outperformed the children who had been given the tools to study well. Those children also continued to improve in their grades.

- 21. You will begin to invest your time in reading about successful people. You will begin to make the investment in your own skills. You will learn to spot the opportunities that will change your life.

- 24. If you are new to running a business, then one of the top multi-level marketing companies is a great place to start, because success breeds success. Take every opportunity you can to learn.
- 25. Becoming a successful entrepreneur is a journey, not a destination. Invest in training, surround yourself with others who are further along the road, and learn from every opportunity that you get to improve your skills.
- 26. Entrepreneurs, by their very nature, are learning new skills all the time. Do not be afraid to realize and admit that you don’t know it all. Find out what skills are necessary for success in your chosen business and constantly strive to learn more about them.
- 27. Edison registered over one thousand patents in his lifetime. Keep striving to improve your systems, your products, your services, and most importantly, your own personal skills as an entrepreneur.
- 28. Don’t’ ever give up. Vince Lombardi said, “Winners never quit and quitters never win.” It may sound like trite advice, but the bottom line is that behind every successful inventor, businessman, and entrepreneur is a string of failures and some minor successes that were the path to their success.
- 29. The personal transformation guru, Tony Robbins, failed miserably, lost everything, but he did not give up. He came back. Stronger than before and has used his experience to transform even more lives. An outcome, whether successful or a failure, is merely a step on your journey. Build on your victories and learn from your mistakes.
- 30. Follow your passion. Passion is most likely one of the most important ingredients in the recipe to becoming a successful entrepreneur. A home based business is not a nine to five job. Yes, you can regulate your own hours, you can spend more time with your family, but you will be putting in more hours than a regular job.
- 31. The difference is that you will be doing what you love. You will want to go the extra mile, to provide the service, to nurture your business as if it’s one of your babies, and you will be just as proud to watch it grow and thrive.
- 32. Be courageous. Walt Disney said, “All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.” Running a home business requires courage. The courage to swim against the stream, to take responsibility for your own destiny and often for the destiny of others.
- 33. Your courage will be handsomely rewarded in the satisfaction of your customers, in the smiles of your employees, and in the pride you feel when you realize that you are changing the world, one day at a time, one deal at a time.
- 34. Be creative. Albert Einstein said, “Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.” Before you say, “I can’t be creative,” read the first few paragraphs of this article again. Creativity is a skill that can be learned and nurtured.
- 35. One of the most important aspects with regards to creativity is that you cannot be a perfectionist and be creative. The bottom line is that creativity is a process and your product, your business, and even your life, is a work in progress.
- 36. According to Forbes magazine’s article on Entrepreneurs sharing their top tips, “finished beats perfect.” Take a small step towards your destination each day and don’t sweat the details if everything wasn’t perfect.
- 37. You learned, you will improve, and you are on the road to success.
- 38. Do not be afraid to start small. Larry Page, a co-founder of Google, said, “You don’t need to have a 100-person company to develop an idea.” Bear in mind that most home businesses began as a one-person show, with a passion to serve.
- 39. You don’t need thousands of dollars to invest in your business. Start small. Learn as you go and keep striving to improve. And one day, when you look back, remember to enjoy the journey.
- 40. Finally, listen to your head and your heart, and occasionally to those around you. One of the biggest challenges is to try to convince the naysayers that surround you. Learn to listen to criticism with a view to improving what you do without allowing it to affect your passion.
- 41. If negative people surround you, change your social structure. The entrepreneurs that succeed are the ones who pursue the impossible until it becomes a reality. Surround yourself with people who see the potential, the possibilities and the opportunities, rather than the problems and potential pitfalls.
