How To Work At Home And Manage Your Home Based Business And The Family Successfully
Most moms and dads who stay at home for some reason or other dislike the idea of idling at home. They would like to keep themselves profitably occupied by doing something that could bring them an income such as running a home based business. It certainly sounds good but with kids around and with houshold chores to attend to, how does one go about managing your home based business and your family?
To be successful your first priority should be your Home Office. You should organize a suitable and convenient place anywhere in your house so that you can sit down peacefully and concentrate on your work without any interruption.
If you have little kids, then it will be wise to arrange for someone to take care of the kids while you are at work. It could be your spouse, the grandparents or a nanny. It is only when you know that the kids are in safe hands, you will be able to devote full attention to your home based business.
One of the main problems faced when you work at home is the tendency to get distracted from your work due to interference by members of your family, neighbors and of course telephone calls. This problem can be minimized but cannot be eliminated completely. To ensure that you are on track, you should prepare a daily work schedule and stick to it. With this plan in place you will be able to manage whatever disruption you might encounter from time to time.
It is important that you commence work daily at a particular time and stop work at a specified time. This is extremely important for two reasons. The first is that your customers will know that they will be able to contact you during this time and the second is that your spouse and kids will know for s
ure that you are available for them after your specified working hours.
One of the main reasons why people want to work at home is to spend more time with the family. When there is work to be done you certainly must spend more time at your work place but this should not be at the expense of a happy family life. Your spouse and the kids should never get the feeling that they are being neglected and their happiness and enjoyment is being sacrificed at the alter of your home based business. You should judiciously plan your work in such a manner that you will spend some time with the family everyday.
When you work at home the main advantage is that your family will be able to reap the rewards of your close physical presence. In the case of an emergency you are available to them the very next minute and what a great morale booster this can be to all concerned. If you plan your work schedule wisely you could transport your children to school and back or take them out to partake in outdoor activities after school. The kids will certainly love this and support you in your business activities.
To grow your home business you will need some extra assistance from time to time such as help in doing household chores and in running your business. Once your family members become supportive of your home based business you can rely on their help whenever the need arises. The support of your family members is very critical for the growth and success of your business. This support and encouragement from them will even be greater if the goals and successes you achieve in your home based business are celebrated with them.
Looking after the family and to work at home, can indeed test your patience and will power. The ability to blend these two tasks successfully can give you tremendous joy, happiness and a sense of achievement.

Apakah ini Hidup Yang Anda Inginkan??
Sekolah dari kecil hingga dewasa, Kerja keras sejak muda hingga tua lalu ketika tua tidak bisa apa-apa, Punya waktu bebas tetapi tidak punya uang, Punya uang, ada waktu tapi tidak sehat,
Apakah ini masa depan yang anda inginkan?
Jika Jawaban Anda:
TIDAK
Lakukan Lompatan!
Buat Perubahan!
Berhentilah sejenak, bayangkan, jika waktu dan uang bukan lagi masalah untuk Anda...
Seandainya Anda bisa mengantar anak pergi kesekolah, melihat mereka bermain dan tumbuh, tidak meninggalkan mereka ketika terbaring sakit, hanya karena harus pergi ketempat bekerja. Seandainya Anda bisa menyekolahkan anak-anak dengan pendidikan terbaik, memberikan mereka tempat tinggal yang baik, aman dan sehat.
Seandainya Anda bisa membahagiakan orang tua saat mereka masih hidup dan membuat mereka bangga dan bersyukur telah membesarkan Anda.
Seandainya Anda bisa beramal, membantu mereka yang kesulitan disaat mereka butuh bantuan.
Seandainya Anda bisa melakukan semua itu tanpa pusing berfikir dari mana uang didapatkan. Seandainya KEBEBASAN WAKTU DAN UANG adalah cita-cita Anda, maka Lakukan Lompatan...! Buat Perubahan...!
LOMPATAN PERTAMA: Melompat dari Pegawai Menjadi Pengusaha atau Profesional
Jika kebebasan adalah cita-cita Anda, maka loncatan pertama yang harus anda lakukan adalah loncatan dari mental pegawai, pekerja, buruh menjadi mental pengusaha atau pemilik usaha.
Kenapa Harus Menjadi Pengusaha?
PEGAWAI:
Waktu Bukan Milik Anda
Penghasilan Terbatas, jika ingin mendapatkan uang lebih, pegawai harus lembur
Nasib Ditentukan Orang Lain, walaupun Anda bekerja keras dan berprestasi bagus, akan tetapi jika tempat dimana Anda bekerja tutp, maka anda akan kehilangan semuanya.
Sumber Penghasilan Hanya Satu
PENGUSAHA:
Anda bisa mengatur waktu, sehingga bisnis tidak mengganggu kepentingan diri dan keluarga
Pengusaha bisa menghasilkan uang tanpa batas karena tidak lagi terikat waktu dan tenaga individual.
Menentukan nasib sendiri
Sumber penghasilan banya.
SAYANGNYA:
Baik menjadi pengusaha, maupun profesional keduanya membutuhkan waktu dan modal yang tidak sedikit.
Jika menjadi pegawai punya kekurangan serta kelebihan dan menjadi pengusaha juga ada kelebihan dan kekurangan, yang manakah yang harus kita pilih? Adakah bisnis yang bisa mendapatkan dua keuntungan sekaligus? "ADA"
LOMPATAN KEDUA: Konvensional ke Non Konvensional
Jika Anda sudah mempunyai mental pengusaha, maka lompatan kedua yang harus dilakukan adalah lompatan dari mental pengusaha konvensional menuju pengusaha non konvensional, dari kerja keras menjadi kerja cerdas, dari hard busines ke smart business.
Jika Anda ingin jadi pengusaha tanpa kehilangan pekerjaan saat ini, jika Anda ingin jadi pengusaha tanpa harus kehilangan penghasilan yang ada, jika Anda ingin memulai bisnis tanpa resiko...
Maka:
Anda harus memulai langkah cerdas! Mengganti kerja keras menjadi kerja cerdas. Lakukan Lompatan berikutnya. Ganti Paradigma Konvensional Anda..
Buka Mata - Buka Hati
MLM
adalah jawabannya...!
Kenapa?
WAKTU FLEKSIBEL
Jika Anda menjalankan bisnis MLM, tidak perlu bolos kerja, dan tidak perlu mengundurkan diri dari kantor. Anda bisa menjalankan bisnis ini sebelum jam kantor atau sesudah jam kantor, dalam perjalanan menuju kantor, jam istirahat kantor dsb.
TEMPAT FLEKSIBEL
Anda bisa menjalankan bisnis di mana saja, dalam kegiatan apa saja, akan tetapi hasilnya luar biasa!
MODAL MINIM & BEP MODAL CEPAT
Jika Anda menjalankan bisnis MLM, maka modal yang dibutuhkan sangat kecil. Modal utama di MLM adalah keinginan kuat, waktu, informasi dan referensi.
HASIL BESAR & ADA PASSIVE INCOME
Dalam bisnis MLM, pencapaian suksesnya cepat dan ada passive income murni, uang tetap masuk walau usaha pribadi berhenti, atau bahkan kita sudah meninggal dunia.
TIDAK MULAI DARI NOL
Di MLM, Anda tidak memulai dari NOL, tinggal memanfaatkan sistem yang sudah mapan, di bisnis MLM image sudah terbangun, Anda tinggal memanfaatkannya.
TIDAK PERLU SKILL KHUSUS
Di MLM tidak dibutuhka pengalaman atau skill tertentu karena ada support sistem yang siap membantu siapa saja yang mau menjalankan bisnis ini secara serius.
ADA SOSIAL SPIRIT
Dalam bisnis MLM, tidak ada cara lain untuk sukses kecuali Anda bisa membuat sukses Downline Anda..
Saya sering dengar kelebihan MLM, akan tetapi pada prakteknya tidak mudah, jadi bagaimana?
Asalkan Anda sudah bisa melihat dengan positif bisnis MLM, kini satnya Anda memilih MLM yang paling tepat.

Apakah Anda Ingin Terikat Pekerjaan Selamanya??
Banyak orang begitu gembira ketika mendapatkan pekerjaan dab diterima sebagai pegawai, tetapi banyak yang tidak menyadari betapa banyak yang harus mereka korbankan untuk status barunya tersebut.
Ketika Anda memasuki status baru tersebut, maka berarti Anda baru saja menyerahkan sebagian waktu dan kebebasan kepada perusahaan, lembaga atau orang lain, dan secara langsung atau tidak langsung Anda baru saja menyetujui memberikan potensi yang anda miliki untuk mereka.
Jika Anda sadari, sebenarnya begitu banyak yang dikorbankan ketika terikat kerja, karena itu pastikanlah bahwa Anda bisa mengambil sebanyak-banyaknya nilai lebih dari pekerjaan, dan niatkan dalam hati bahwa menjadi pegawai hanyalah batu loncatan sementara sebelum Anda menemukan sumber penghasilan yang menjanjikan kebebasan finansial dan kebebasan waktu.
HAK WAKTU ANDA DISITA
Pernahkah Anda menghitung berapa jam kerja Anda?Jika jam kerja Anda sehari adalah 9 jam, maka pada jam kerja tersebut Anda tidak punya hak atas waktu Anda
HAK WAKTU KELUARGA DISITA
Pernahkah Anda menghitung betapa banyak waktu yang direnggut tempat Anda bekerja sehingga keluarga hanya mendapat sisa waktu saja. Ketika Anda pulang kerja, Anda tidak sempat melakukan apa-apa bersama keluarga.
KEBEBASAN DIRI DIIKAT
Apakah Anda ingin dihargai, apa adanya? Ingin menjadi diri sendiri, bebas mengekspresikan perasaan? Hehe, jika Anda pegawai, buang jauh-jauh keinginan tersebut. Pada jam kerja, Anda adalah alat tempat dimana Anda bekerja. Pendapat perusahaan adalah pendapat Anda. Misi perusahan adalah misi Anda..
PENGHASILAN JAUH DARI MEMENUHI KEBUTUHAN
Sekalipun pegawai sudah kehilangan waktu dan kebebasan serta memberikan potensi mereka untuk tempat dimana mereka bekerja, sebagian besar pegawai tidak menerima imbalan yang sebanding, mereka masih hidup berkekurangan.
TERLILIT HUTANG, GALI LOBANG TUTUP LOBANG
Terkadang karena gaji begitu kecil, kebijakan uang ketat masih tidak bisa mengatasi kebutuhan rumah tangga, karena itu banyak juga yang berhutang untuk mengatasi masalah keuangan. Masalahnya berhutang juga punya resiko, apalagi jika hutang diikuti bunga, bisa-bisa kita terlilit hutang.
FAKTA MENCENGANGKAN TENTANG AKHIR PARA PEGAWAI
Majalah Business Week menuls,Bagi rata-rata pekerja, diperlukan setengah dari umur mereka untuk embeli rumah, menabung sejumlah uang dan mengumpulkan uang untuk masa tua. Tetapi, kalau kita menganggur akibat kehilangan pekerjaan, hanya dalam waktu enam bulan saja kita kehilangan semua. (kunjungi link: Smart Business)

Long-Term Investing as an Optimist
It does pay to be a long-term optimist as I am. The easiest way to show the importance of staying invested is with the Rule of 72, which illustrates how compounding builds long-term wealth. To see how many years it will take to double your money at any compound growth rate, just divide 72 by that rate. Assuming a 7% compounding rate, your money will roughly double in 10 years. Over 50 years, you will have five doubles -with the last 20 years being the most important doubling points because you are working with a greater principal amount.
For example, $1 million compounding at 7% will grow to almost $32 million ($29.46 to be exact) in 50 years. In the first decade your money will double from $1 million to $2 million, in the second decade from $2 million to $4 million and in the third decade from $4 million to $8 million. Then it starts to get really interesting because the dollar amounts you are doubling are so much greater. In the fourth decade your money will double from $8 million to $16 million and in the fifth decade from $16 million to $32 million. If you can compound your money at 14%, then your $1 million will grow to more than $700 million in 50 years. In such case, your money will double about twice as fast- about every five years, not every 10 years- and so you will have almost 10 doubles over a 50-year period. This is why it is so important to stay invested.
Here are some of the best investment minds in the country offering their wisdom and insights on the issues confronting all investors:
- "Diversification is an established tenet for conservative investment." Benjamin Graham
- "To refer to a personal taste of mine, I am going to buy hamburgers the rest of my life. When hamburgers go down in price, we sing the "Hallelujah Chorus" in the Buffett household. When hamburgers go up, we weep. For most people, it is the same way with everything in life they will be buying -except stocks. When stocks go down and you can get more for your money, people don't like them anymore." Warren Buffett
- "Far more money has been lost by investors preparing for corrections or trying to anticipate corrections than has been lost in corrections themselves." Peter Lynch, former Fidelity Magellan Fund manager.
- "Your success in investing will depend in part on your character and guts, and in part on your ability to realize at the height of ebullience and the depth of despair alike that this too shall pass." John Bogle, Chairman of Vanguard.
Many people are disappointed with investing over the last year. Even if equities deliver long-term returns in the mid single digits as they have in the last decade building a solid long term investment portfolio is still possible. From the quotes above, you can see that you must invest for the long term- that is a minimum of 10 years or more. Focus on the Rule of 72 and the stick with your plan and successful results are sure to follow no matter what the economy does.

Competitive Van Insurance
The credit crunch and impending recession will undoubtedly affect many businesses, take a positive approach and make full advantage of insurance companies competing for your business.
Insurance for vans has never been more competitive, insurers are all offering great deals and cheap van insurance, however, make sure you read the small print to get the best deals and cover for your needs. Your van is your business, thinking that you will save money by choosing not to insure the van and its contents is not only illegal it is foolhardy. Loss or damage to your van or tools and your business will be ruined.
Using a van for work is one of the practical and cost effective means of transport around, if tools are your livelihood you simply cannot afford to have them stolen or damaged and spend days trying to find replacements, tool insurance cover will give peace of mind that your tools or hired tools are protected in your van 24/7.
If you use your van for courier or haulage contracts then additional Goods In Transit, GIT, is a must. You will simply have to inform the insurers what you are carrying and its value, some insurers also include cover for driving in the European Union, so hopping across the Channel is no problem.

With so many TV ads telling everyone to make claims for injury and damages any discerning company with a van simply cannot overlook this part of an insurance quote. Public and Products Insurance can save an awful lot of hassle and grieve, without this type of insurance you will be liable to pay the full amount of a claim made against you if a person is given an award due to injury or damages caused by you or your products so is well worth considering including this type of protection in your insurance.
The smaller and lighter the van the cheaper the insurance will be, having a vehicle which is less than 3.5 tonnes are typically given budget deals. The age of the van will also be taken into consideration by the insurers, the newer the van the cheaper the insurance will be.
In the unfortunate event of your van being stolen, breaking down or being involved in an accident with significant damage, insurance which includes or the option for a courtesy van will keep you and your business on the road.
There are some positive steps which can be taken to help further reduce the cost of van insurance, having a company logo on the side of your van, fitting an immobiliser and alarm are often taken into consideration by insurers, many will also enable you to transfer your no claims discount from other vehicles to your van to help save even further.
