Many people buy into a home based business and expect to have massive success without laying the proper foundation. I am going to lay a foundation for you so that you can move forward with reasonable expectations and a track to run on.
In order to be successful, you've got to do some very specific activities to build a foundation for your long term financial future.
#1) You Must Get and Stay on Autoship
Any home business worth buying should have an autoship order for their products. This will ensure that you never miss a monthly shipment of your product. By ordering monthly, you will develop your own story for the company products. This is also a monkey see, monkey do business. How can you expect your distributors to order the product every month if you do not? It really comes down to a matter of ethics.
This also shows intent to make a profit in your business. Since most of the compensation plans revolve around the purchase of products, by purchasing the products every month, the IRS can tell that you are serious about building your business.
#2) Set Up a Tax File
Did you know that just for running a home based business, the government allows you to write off thousands of dollars every year in taxes? It's true. By saving your receipts for business expenses, you can save thousands of dollars per year in tax write-offs! This fact alone is one of the biggest reasons to run your business. While you are actively making money, you can save money too! This will increase your profits even more and give you more money to re-invest back into your enterprise.
#3) Set and Write Down Your 90, 180 & 360 Day Personal and Income Goals
This is a critical for your success. It is true that people who write their goals down on paper and share them with others, are 90% more likely to reach them than those who don't.
It's all about seeing the possibilities as probabilities; Beginning with the end in mind; speaking into existence the act that will follow. Envisioning yourself receiving monthly checks from your company, that could set you and your family up financially for the rest of your life. Would it be worth it, to take the time to write these personal and income goals down right away? You bet!
Now that you have set yourself up on autoship, set up your tax file, and written down your goals, it is time to get started building your business.
This is where we come in. The top income earners in each and every company all have several things in common. They are coachable, teachable and they all have a desire to learn new skills.
There is a coaching program called 180daystogreatness that is now available to everyone on the internet. The creator and our coach is Nadira Haniff. She teaches skills that will absolutely set you up for the rest of your life in business. Learn more about this revolutionary business building program today.
In my opinion, it does not do any good to invest the money, time and energy into getting started in business if you are not willing to invest in yourself and develop the skills you are going to need to succeed.

Building a Successful Home Based Business
Building a successful business is all about growing yourself and learning new skills. Unlike a job where you go to work and do what someone else tells you to, building a business requires you to think. Now there is an interesting statement. Let’s break this down.
Today, it seems that more people than ever are looking for a home based business. People are tired of working for someone else for 40 years just to find out that 1 year before they can retire and receive full benefits they are fired and replaced with someone that can do the same work for 1/2 the income. This is a trend that is happening over and over and people and starting to take notice of what is happening in the home based industry.
Now assuming that you are in the percentage of people that are considering the home based industry, there are a few things that you must be prepared for.
First, when starting your business you must realize that you are in business. You must take responsibility for everything that is going to happen, whether it is success or failure. You must realize that you are not taking orders anymore and you will be making decisions that affect you and other people that you will be influencing. To do this will require you to grow yourself and become a bigger person. I am a firm believer that in the home based business industry we are in the people building business.
Second, you must learn new skills. Becoming successful in business will require you to learn skills that you may not want to learn. You need to be great in several areas. You need to be great at advertising, promoting, writing, building relationships, developing phone skills, and much more. You will need to be patient with yourself. Keep in mind that you may not possess these skills when you start, but if you persist you can develop them and eventually master them.
If you are sick and tired of the corporate grind and are considering starting a home based business, and you are willing to commit to learning new skills, growing yourself, and are willing to shift your 9 to 5 mindset, then I welcome you to the first day of the rest of your life.
There is a group that is called 180daystogreatness that will teach you everything that is required to help you become a success at your new found profession. It was created by Nadira Haniff and it will teach you the mindset and the skill set that is required for you to win business. Unlike a lot of other programs available this is a hands on approach with a mentor available to you 24/7. I urge everyone to take a look at this program to get you started in the right direction.

The Twelve Success Factors Part 4
There is no easy way to become successful. It takes a lot of hard work and most of all perseverance. There are twelve factors that you can learn and once they are applied it will increase your ability for lasting success.
Return on Investment
Time is a commodity that most of us do not even think about. How we spend our time and the activities that we do can make a difference in our success. Once time is spent it is gone forever. We need to think about doing things that will give us a great return on our investment. We only have 24 hours – use it wisely!!
A quote unsure of the author:
“Every morning you are handed 24 golden hours. They are one of the few things in this world that you get free of charge. If you had all the money in the world, you couldn’t buy an extra hour. What will you do with this priceless treasure?”
The Power of the Mind
The mind has incredible power. It gives you unrealized potential that you can get what you want from life. It gives you the power to dream and the power to realize those dreams if you have the right mindset and are willing to stay focused.
Napolean Hill once said, “Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe. He can achieve.”
The Will to Succeed
Above all else you need the will to succeed. It is the will to succeed that gets every successful person to the top. It is that will that gives them the ability to press on when all looks dark, to persist against all odds, good and bad. When you have that will you can pick your self up after a failure, learn from the mistakes that you made and carry on with more determination then when you started.
You may have to dig deep at times but it is this will to succeed that separates the achievers from the dreamers.
