A Home Based Business Means Quick, Easy Money...And Pigs Will Fly

Yup, here come those wonderful flying pigs! 

Where does it ever end? I've been involved with Internet-based 
home businesses for several years and I continue to be exposed to 
a seemingly endless barrage of offers (all costing me money, of 
course) claiming to be "the secret" for making a fantastic income, 
in a very short time, and with very little effort involved. 

I must admit that I may have a slightly self-serving reason for 
addressing this topic. My articles are published on my 
home-based business websites for the purpose of trying to give 
prospective team members a true sense of what is really involved 
with starting and developing a successful home based business. 
The self-serving part, I suppose, is that I want people joining 
my team to have the straight scoop going in so that we don't 
waste each other's time. I admit to being selfish in this 
regard (I don't want to waste time working with people that have 
unrealistic expectations), but it is also very efficient for 
both parties involved, so it is not a totally one-way thing. 

Now, back to the topic at hand. There's no magic here, folks. 
Once you have selected the home business that you are going to 
pursue, there are no substitutes for time and effort in 
developing your business. A dream of being an "overnight 
success" is just that, a dream. 

I can tell you from personal experience, that once you "pay your 
dues" and begin to have real success with a home based business, 
it is really terrific. Think about Nirvana or Valhalla, take 
your pick, but in any event it's really sweet. 

When I started developing a home based business, making a good 
income was obviously an objective, but I also had other 
sub-objectives. One of the most important things was to have 
nearly total time flexibility (I mean, if I was willing to 
continue to wear the 9-5 Mon-Fri collar I could just have just 
stayed in the previously "traditional" work force). 

Time flexibility was (and still is) a "biggie" for me. Many 
people working at home have the same need for various reasons. 
For work at home moms, a home business can be a real godsend to 
accommodate the hectic time pressures, particularly when the kids 
are quite young and mom is also spelled "transportation". 

In my own particular case, the reason is not quite so noble...I 
just want (need?) to be able to pick up my fly rod and go fishing 
at a moments notice (sometimes I'll be gone for a week or two at 
a time, but now the business has enough momentum that it keeps on 
operating just as well as if I were here tending to it on a 
daily basis). 

Bear in mind, I am only able do the breakaway thing now that I 
have put in all the up-front time and effort and now have 
developed enough kinetic energy in my home-based Internet 
business to be able to enjoy the fruits of my labor.

  1. You can earn $20 for each 20 minute survey!

    Guess what? This is exactly what big companies are paying me for. They need to know what their average customer needs and wants. So large companies pay $1,000,000's of dollars every month to the average person. In return, the average person, myself included, participates in surveys and gives them their opinion.
