You must stand firm. You must make certain your friends and family understands that when you are working, then you ARE working! If they wish to socialize with you, then they need to do it during hours that are not dedicated to your home business.

You are only one who can stand up for you. Your friends and family will seldom be able to appreciate your dedication to your home business, unless you make effort to make sure that they have same respect for your business that you do.

TIP #5: You should allot a certain portion of your day to email and to regular mail. For example, allot one hour in morning and one hour in afternoon to handling your written communications.

Unless you dedicate certain times to handling of these communications, you will soon find yourself on downward slope of decreased productivity.

TIP #6: When you find yourself spending too much time doing non-productive activities, then you should seriously consider finding a third-party service provider who will assist you in those non-profitable business activities.

As an example, you might be in mail-order business. You might believe that your time is best spent writing ad copy and setting up your advertising, but you find yourself spending far too much time taking care of your books to take care of your advertising in manner that you should. In this event, it might make more sense to hire a bookkeeper to handle your financial records for you.

CONCLUSION: In end, success of your home business is entirely and completely reliant upon you and decisions that you make.

You had your reasons for deciding to start your own home based business. You must always keep your reasons in forefront of your mind. You must always be able to rely upon your own self and your dedication to success of your business.

Your friends and family might be annoyed that they cannot come visit upon their own whim, but when success comes to you and your business, they will better appreciate you for putting your foot down when necessary.

Success is within your reach, if only you can stay focused on your goals. You must decide to reach for your goals, and then, you must have discipline necessary to reach them.

Let us return our thoughts to your home business. Have you ever gotten feeling of excitement --- when you read something or thought of something --- that you could not wait to implement this new idea? This could be one of those moments...

In every home business, there are certain processes that we do over and again. Sometimes it may be possible to trim time or expense of a process which in turn will add pennies or dollars to your bottom line. If it is a process that you do hundreds or thousands of times per month, then your savings will multiply into hundreds or thousands of dollars in monthly savings.

Imagine what running a home business was like BEFORE computer...

Before personal computer, we had to hand type all letters and invoices. Now, we can setup a letter or invoice that we send out quite often, and we can save it in our word processor so that when we need to use it again, we can print it quickly and efficiently. There is no longer a need to type document again from scratch.

The computer has simplified our business communications and has provided us opportunity to reduce our costs of doing business.

Think about all of other processes that computer has enabled us to do for far less expense than what we could in past.

In this case, computer is a tool that permits us to save time and money.

So, my challenge to you is to begin examining processes in your own home business and look for ways in which you can save yourself time and money. It is far better for you to contemplate on this matter than it is for me to do so for you. Simply put, you know your business better than anyone on planet does. Therefore, you are in a better position than anyone to find those extra dollars that will decrease your costs and increase your profits.

The extra pennies and dollars you could extract from your business could spell difference between success and failure for your home business enterprise.
