Why The Fear About Starting A Home Business?

Since so many people say they want to work from home, why does there seem to be so much fear concerning the idea of starting a home business? My guess is that there are a number of reasons. For one, human beings have been conditioned to be suspicious of everyone and everything overing hope because of the saying, "If it sounds too good to be true, then it is." It saddens me to think of all the missed opportunities in life because people succumbed to fear rather than faith that success and happiness are indeed possible.


Another reason people are afraid is simply because they would have to do something they've not done before. However, if we all look back on our lives, everything we've done we had to do for the first time at some point, right? Examples are crawling, walking, riding a bicycle, writing a paper, starting a job, etc. But we did it and soon learned it really wasn't as big a deal as we had imagined. It's the same with starting a home business. When you look around and see that thousands of people are happy and successful working a business from home, then there's every reason to believe that you also can be happy and successful doing the same thing.


For me, the scary part was that I had never been self-employed before - except for that brief time in the early '80s when I was a Mary Kay Consultant. Maybe that's another issue for some people - either they or someone they know "tried" a home based business in the past and didn't achieve the success they desired. Thank goodness I faced my fear and decided that the possibility of success outweighed my fear of failure. After all, I was the reason I didn't succeed the first time. Mary Kay is still a thriving business with many successful consultants.


Granted, there have always been fly-by-night companies that offer no real substance to their promises. However, due diligence includes talking to people who have actually succeeded in a company - lots of people - and reveals a company's merits. That is certainly the case with the company we work with - Liberty League International. It's almost 8 years old and growing like crazy. This only happens when people of high integrity are at the helm.

My personal goal is to assist anyone who desires to take their life to a new level. And I am eager to assist them today, not tomorrow. Anyone can find an excuse not to do something. I challenge you to find one reason to do something and do it today. The life change will be dramatic. Otherwise, one stays stuck in fear. Only the brave achieve their true dreams. I'm really glad I overcame my fear of starting a home business!

Being Self-Employed

What does being self-employed look like? If you're thinking of starting your own home-based business, you probably have an idea of what your life will look like. How will it be different from what you're accustomed to? Will you spend more time sleeping, reading, travelling, parenting or working? Being an entrepreneur still requires work because you are running a business after all. The difference is that you keep all the profits and not just a small fraction.

Many people dream of being self-employed but don't seriously assess the risks and benefits. The risks are that there is no guarantee of a steady paycheck. The benefit is that the sky is the limit when it comes to income. No set wages means you decide what you will earn. After all, you're the employer, right? Another huge benefit for me is that I decide how much vacation I can take. When I worked as a nurse, I was very limited in both the amount I could earn and in the amount of vacation I could take. I wasn't even allowed time off without pay!

Some other considerations include the integrity of the company as well as the training and support being provided. Also, I needed to know the investment required and if products needed to be stocked and shipped. The company I chose to work with, Liberty League International, exceeded my requirements. The compensation plan is the best in the business, the training and support are over the top, and I can conduct the business anywhere with a cell phone and a laptop computer. If being self-employed like this sounds interesting to you, contact me. My business is helping people just like you.

Blank Becomes Entrepreneur

In my case, it's Registered Nurse Becomes Entrepreneur. For my husband, it reads Retired Air Force Maintenance Officer Becomes Entrepreneur. Our daughter's title is Teacher Becomes Entrepreneur. And the list goes on and on. The bottom line is that anyone with a dream of doing something different with their education and skills can decide to be self-employed.

Some people, like our daughter, made this decision at a young age. Others of us stayed in "the box" and worked for someone else until we found the courage to set ourselves free. We eventually decided that "enough is enough" and if "blank" can become an entrepreneur, so can I. Wow! What a Concept! We are now free to spend our time the way we decide. We can be creative with our business and do it our way instead of someone else's way. And we now have unlimited potential for financial success. No more waiting and hoping for a raise - just set goals, do the thing, and expect the rewards. I really am glad I made this choice.

How about you? Is it time for you to decide to become an entrepreneur? You already have what it takes. Just decide and then your former title can fill in the blank. I look forward to hearing your story and helping you decide on the next chapter. Fill out the form and I'll call you back. It really is amazingly simple.
