WAHM Blog

A new week is here again, so it is time to roll out the carpet and start thinking about the weekly to-do list. Last week was a bum week for me, i failed miserably at completing my goals! My kids were sick and I did not feel 100% me. I got very backed up on emails and failed to finish my articles I needed to get done. Not to mention, I failed to return phone calls I needed too.

I did manage to change the blog theme but that was really it. The week did not help me reach my goals for March at all.

So, this week really needs to be productive for me. One of my favorite Goal Setting Quotes…

You must have long term goals to keep you from being frustrated by short term failures.Charles C. Noble

My Week To-Do List:
1. Complete 3 new articles and get them submitted.
2. Create 1 new Squidoo Lens. (i am doing well with squidoo)
3. Follow Up on all email contacts from last week.
4. Introduce 5 new people to AmeriPlan. ( I have to do to make my overall monthly goal)
5. Get caught up on all of our laundry! YUGH, I dread this one!
6. Get my house nice and clean! MY MIL is coming down for Easter.
7. Complete next weeks 5 Days Of Direct Sales. I have allot of research to finish!

So, what are your goals for the week? Small or big?

Being an Entrepreneur is not easy work, and if anyone ever told you it was going to be a cake walk…they lied! Here are a few tips I have learned over the last several years of working my own businesses.

Tip 1- Work hard! Every successful entrepreneur will tell you they have worked very hard to be successful. Sitting at home waiting for business to come to you will not work! You need to give it all you got! You can ask any successful businessperson and they will tell you that they had to work very hard at the start of their businesses to get it going well. If you are in the start-up phase, you will have to breathe, eat and sleep with your business until it can stand on its own. Working hard will be easy if you have a vision, goals, and are passionate with what you do.

Tip 2- Focus on your strengths instead of your weaknesses. Each of us has our own strengths and weaknesses you we all must understand that we just cannot be everything to everybody. Instead of trying to be the jack of all trades, you will find it easier for your business if you focus on what you are the best at.

So, you need to concentrate on your strengths. You will find you will be more successful if you are able to channel your efforts to areas that you do best.

If you are better at the creative end of your business than marketing of your business, take your time and focus on the creative end, and hire help for the marketing part. This will allow you to do what you are best at, and let someone else help you by doing what they are best at. In turn you will be more productive when you focus on your personal strengths.

Tip 3- Remove the work failure from your brain. As an entrepreneur, you need to completely believe in your business and that you can do it. If you realize that your hard work and excellent ideas will be a success one day, you need to work it until you get to where you want to be. NEVER quit and never doubt yourself. No business owner has ever had to easy. We all have worked our butts off to get where we are today! Successful entrepreneurs are those who have a vision and solid goal who work through thick and thin to accomplish their task at hand….Running A Successful Business!

What does success mean to you? This is a wide open question, as everyone defines success different.

One many say she is successful becuase she makes $75,000 a year were another may say she is successful becuase she is happy with all aspects of her life. Even though she may not make $75K a year, her definition of success is different.

I have heard many times, that success is not about making money but about developing oneself into a person who is valuable to others.

Success is a goal for most people but it helps to have a clear idea of what success means to you if you plan to become successful!

In my own personal life and business, I would say I have been successful. I have met the goals I have set for my business and  I am happy with where I stand as of today. I have 4 beautiful children, the opportunity to sit at home comfy and work online, a great husband, and a very nice income I have built. For me, success is a feeling of personal accomplishment.

Success means finding personal satisfaction in your work and loving what you do. However, if you wish to be successful in your ventures you must take action and reach out and grab it!

So what do success mean to you? Click the comment button below and leave me your thoughts!
