Be prepared to take advantage of any EXTRA time that may fall in your lap! Do you spend a lot of time commuting to your job, or perhaps waiting for people/things during your day? If you have something related to your business with you, for example something you were planning to read or write, then you can take advantage of these times to get ahead in your own business. If you work on a computer, perhaps you could spend these 'down' times, or even just your breaks, doing advertising or research online.

SO many people would have more time if they'd just DELEGATE! You don't have to do everything yourself - at home or in your business.

If you find yourself bogged-down by household tasks, enlist your children or spouse to help: it'll be good for them, and when your business takes off, they'll benefit from that as well!

Make your business a 'family affair'! Older children may even be able to help you with advertising, posting ads online or perhaps delivering flyers or posting advertising on message boards in your community.

Take advantage of resources online to help you. There is nothing wrong with cutting a few corners (and HOURS) off your business start-up and expansion by getting help. There are people whose business it is to help you succeed, so USE them!

With a little commitment, planning and foresight, you CAN findrepparttar time to start your own home business. And, believe me, it'll be worth it!

3.Check your bookcases. You can extendrepparttar one-year rule a bit here, but you must be realistic with yourself. Are you actually going to make use of these items in your work? Throw away what you must, sell what you can and giverepparttar 116665 rest to charity. 4.Start bringing a higher level of order into your life. Are there people to whom you owe a letter? Have you balanced your checkbook? This isrepparttar 116666 time to either create or refine your "to do" list and make it stick. Carry it around with you and add to it as you think of new items. You will find that many ofrepparttar 116667 items that you add to your list will directly affect your level of success. The reason for this is that success flows inrepparttar 116668 presence of order. Just as water is disturbed into rapids inrepparttar 116669 presence of major outcroppings of rocks, so isrepparttar 116670 flow of success disrupted byrepparttar 116671 disorder of cluttered schedules, incomplete duties and broken agreements. You may note that it is very rare that a prosperous individual allows their affairs to be chaotic. All of this doesn't have to happen in one weekend. In order to make it work effectively, daily progress should be happening. Choose one cabinet to clean out per day or one letter to write. Make your progress towards greater order a tangible thing that you can recognize. The results will be well worth it.
