We are all raised to believe that we must work a job 9 to 5, five days a week for forty some odd years at which point we’ll be able to retire and live our lives to fullest when we’re incapable of moving anymore. Most people nowadays do not get to retire when they think they will, many people have to work well into their 60’s and above.

These type of people will live out their lives always hoping for better, hoping that something better will come along, and always struggling just to get by, or to live where they think they are comfortable. The sad part is that comfortable for most of these people is just not having it as bad as it could be, and these people don’t know true comfort because they have never felt it.

Then there is that 1% of population. These people are what I call Dreamers, not to be mistaken with dreamers of 99%, although they are sometimes closest of two groups. But Dreamers are people who can look at where they’re at in life, see that they don’t like, dream about where they want to go, and then do whatever it takes to get their. The dreamers of 99% group are similar, but have a difference. These people will not like where they are at in there life, see where they want to go, but don’t do anything about it to get there. These people fail because they are afraid of success, for whatever reason. And they will always fail unless they overcome that fear and push to make those dreams happen.

But real Dreamers are type of people that never give up. They see something they want, and will do anything and sacrifice everything to get it. Many times they will fail, it’s human nature to fail. I don’t believe even most successful people in world have never failed in their lives, we all have. The only people who do not fail are people who never try. What make these Dreamers different is that when they fail, that just drives them more to get back and try again, but this time 10 times harder than before. And if they fail again, no problem, they’ll get back up again and repeat cycle until they succeed.

Therefore, this is what separates 99 from 1. The dedication to achieve their goals at whatever cost because they know that once they get there it will be worth sacrifices made.

I see many people today trying to start their own home based business and always failing. You can actually tell when somebody has been trying for a long time because of tone in their emails when they respond to an ad. I get to see this almost everyday advertising my opportunity to people. This saddens me because I know that chances are good that if someone has tried many home based businesses in past, they have probably run into at least one good one. They have simply failed because they didn’t know how not too, and did not have drive to find out how to succeed.

Stability- With so many scams out there, one thing to look for is a stable opportunity. What I mean is this: Look for a business that has been around for a while. I’m not saying that there aren’t new opportunities that are not worthwhile but I always like to know business has been successful. Also, a stable company will usually let you join for free so that you can take a more detailed look at it before you invest your time and money into it.

Product-What product(s) will you be offering to others? Is it something that most people need, use, or would want? More importantly, is it something you need, would use, or want? It is impossible to market a product that you don’t use, because if you don’t use it, how can you convince anybody else to use it? Also, keep in mind that most times, you will be selling opportunity as well, so you need to be convinced that it works before you can convince others.

Investment-How much does it cost to join this opportunity? How much is it going to cost to market your product? How does compensation plan work? How long does it usually take before I at least break even? Compare what you will be spending to money making potential of business.
