Will You Build A Fortune Network Marketing
So will you make a fortune network marketing? Some people really do pull in fortunes, while others are happy just to cover the household expenses. Whatever plans or dreams you have for your home business you will need to train yourself to focus.
Making money working from home 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, escape your boss, or simply resent the time wasted in the daily commute, a network marketing internet business can be the perfect work at home solution.
However, it is not as easy as some people want you to believe. Pick up a copy of Ann Sieg’s free report The 7 Lies Of Network Marketing to find out. The drop out rate in network marketing businesses is huge. Around 90% of new recruits will drop out. This gives MLM a bad press. But did you know that the quit rate for any other type of self employment work from home is just as high?
It’s not MLM that is the problem. It is hard setting up any kind of home business. And the main problem that most people have can be summed up in one word:
Focus.
Distractions, interruptions, lack of motivation, 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, which 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 spend time getting into the ‘zone’ of the new task. Recent research suggested that it can take as long as 20 minutes to get fully into the zone of whatever we are doing. Only then are we really focused on the task and able to work most effectively.
Of course, have frequent breaks. Take 5 or 10 minutes to stretch, relax, fetch a glass of water. But do not watch TV or start reading something. Take a notebook so you can write down ideas that come up during your break.
Plan your schedule and keep to it, without interruptions or distractions. Focus on the most important task that you have to do that day, and do not do any other work until it is done. Or for longer term projects, set aside a certain time each day for that task, and catch up with your email, calls etc in the rest of the time. But whatever else you do, keep your focus through all of your working time.
