Almost everyone it seems thinks that working from home is a great goal. This is very true, if you have the discipline to stay focused without constant supervision. There are literally thousands of small business ideas with many that would allow you to work from home. Here are a few things to consider before you quit your job and follow your dream

FIND WHAT YOU LOVE TO DO
The key to any successful small business is to understand the market and your own personal talents. It doesn't matter that some businesses may offer more money. If you don't love the work, you won't be willing to make the effort necessary to be successful in any small business. Unlike corporate America, and small business is a lot like a small child. Both will depend on you and your decisions to help them grow and stay healthy

DECIDE WHAT IS SUCCESS
The definition of success is different, for many of us. For some it's loads of money in the bank. While for others it's having more time to spend with family and friends. Only you can decide how much money is enough.

For some, a successful small business might generate enough money to let a spouse stay home or go to school. It may be a way to save more money so you can retire at a much earlier age.

FIND A NICHE AND FILL IT
You've probably heard many people suggest that you find a niche. A niche is simply a small part of the market that isn't being serviced now. Realize that the growth of the Web itself has been a phenomenon driven by entrepreneurs like yourself who want their own small business. We're not just talking Web businesses however is there are many home-based business opportunities that will allow you to work from home and make a full-time income.

THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX:
while many people dreaming of their own small business will look to standard small-business opportunities. The trick is to find a unique way to develop that business idea.
Consider a hairdresser.
If your talent is cutting and styling hair, most hairdressers looking for a small business opportunity may rent their own styling chair in an established salon. Thinking outside the box, that same hairdresser could offer in-home haircare to senior citizens who may have a difficult time driving themselves to a typical brick-and-mortar business.

Spend some time developing these four points, and you will find that there are hundreds of small business ideas that fit perfectly with your talents and abilities. Everyone has a set of skills.
All you need to do is:

1. Find out what you love to do
2. Understand your definition of success
3. Figure out how you can put your skills to use in the marketplace
4. Offer your services were skills to the market in a unique way

The result will be a strong desire to leave your job to follow your dream of your very own small business idea.
