Sometimes when life is busy, its difficult to find time to
step back and analyze what you're doing with your life and
whether it's going in the direction you want it to. You
know you want to set a home based business, but you never
seem to have a second to think about it. Here are some
ideas to help you find that time.
1. Take time to dream; somewhere, in the back of your mind,
a little voice is telling you that you want a new start.
You want to be independent. You want your own home based
business. Take 5 minutes to sit back, close your eyes and
dream about it. Does your dream appeal to you? If it does –
it's time to look into it further.
2. Family; parents, partner or siblings tend to be more
perceptive about us than we are. Ask them what they think.
Would it be the right thing for you to do? What areas
should you look at?
3. Social life; in the early stages of you home based
business it is important that you realize your social life
will suffer. If that is too big a hurdle for you, then
perhaps building a home based business is not for you and
it could be time for a rethink.
4. Holiday time; perhaps taking a break from work could
give you useful think time. Time out to reflect can be just
what you need and if you're positive that a home based
business is what you want. Perhaps you can even take the
first steps towards getting it up and running and go back
to work with a new spring in your step!
5. Commuting time; if you travel to and from work by public
transport, then use that time to good effect. Switch off
your phone and concentrate on your home based business. Jot
down ideas, start to write up your business plan, write
yourself a to do list. It's time effective.
6. Walk; If you have a dog, take it out for a long walk. If
you don't have a dog, borrow one! Fresh air is good for
creative thinking. An early morning walk will give you time
to think and plan the day ahead.
7. Talk to your boss; if you think your boss would be
sympathetic, then share your plans with them. If you have
been a valued employee, they will be sad to lose you, but
you never know – depending on the area your home based
business is in, your old firm could be your first client,
or your first supplier, or even just a good place to
advertise.
8. D.I.Y.; sometimes doing some jobs around the house,
painting or digging the garden, can provide you with some
useful think time too. And you'll end up gaining points
with your partner!
9. Have a bath; instead of racing in and out of the shower,
take time to have a soak in the bath. Again this will give
you time to take stock of where you want to go with your
home based business.
10. Lunch time; at lunch time get right out of your work
environment. Take a picnic to the park or visit your
favorite coffee shop. This will give you valuable extra
time. Take your notebook with you and keep working on those
ideas!
In short, use every available opportunity to focus your
thoughts on your home based business. Do this and your idea
will take root and begin to grow!
