Your Home Based Business - "big Stuff" Versus "little Stuff"
We disagree with Thomas Jefferson, who said "All men are created equal." For one thing there's women in this bunch too, ya know, and for another . . . it's just not true. (Plus we don't much like that grammar.) People are as different as night and day. (And we wonder why they can't agree on religion and politics?!) We prefer "Know thyself." Plato. Now there's a guy who knew what he was talking about. And what does all this have to do with working at home anyway?
If you're going to make a success of your home based business, and you're working in the midst of your own dust mites, clutter, and kids, then believe us, you'd better know thyself! Here are some basic, rather unconventional but holy laws.
BIG STUFF - Here's where knowing thyself comes in. Figure out what really makes you tick, helps you be productive and creative, or absolutely destroys your ability to get anything done. If you can't stand to enter your home office until you've had a shower, then by all means be sure you make time for that shower! If your house has to be neat as a pin and clean as a whistle in order for you to think straight, then set aside blocks of hours on certain days to make it so. If you work best under deadlines, then create deadlines for yourself. If you need to stand on your head for 30 minutes to decompress after getting five children off to school before you can go to work, then be sure you make space and time for this as a daily activity. Helpful tools are endless (planning calendars, time-saving technology, timers, regular breaks, etc.), but it's how you use them in your home based business that makes them work, and you have to use them in accordance with your "big stuff" issues. Some people's big stuff is other people's little stuff, so be sure you figure out what your big stuff is.
LITTLE STUFF - This is the "tools" section. Use that timer, plan your week, consolidate those errands, beat that drum! Keep having fun and who you are in mind, and your energy will reflect it. As will the success of your home based business.
RULES - . . . were made to be broken. If you set too many up for yourself you're going to experience self-induced failure. Because you're only human, and you will break your own rules. Too many rules backfires. Don't back your home based business into a corner by creating so many rules that all you spend your time doing is enforcing them!
HAVE A PLAN B - There will be days you wake up and just know that you will not be able to fulfill that day's scheduled tasks. You have writer's block, or PMS, or a migraine, or it's the first day of sunshine in six weeks! Give yourself a friggin' break! Take the day off!
Be realistic. Work in sync with your cycles, your headaches, your children, your strengths and weaknesses. We were not all created equal, and neither were our schedules, so just can the idea of fitting your home based business into any particular formula! No matter what the experts say . . . or Thomas Jefferson.
