Over the last month, I’ve shared information on what it takes to succeed at working from home, how to find and get a work-at-home job, and how to start and build a home business. Have you done any of the recommended tasks? If not, why not? The perfect work-at-home opportunity is not going to show up in your email box. Finding or creating a way to work-at-home is a proactive activity. If you want to work at home, you have to make it happen. So today I’m going to recap what you need to do to work at home:
1. Learn about working at home through books and reputable websites and blogs.
2. Create a burning desire to reach your work-at-home goal. Imagine what your life will be like when you work at home.
3. Make a commitment to reach your goal, no matter what.
4. Inventory your skills, interests and passions and identify job and business prospects based on what you know, do or love.
5. Search for and research jobs and business ideas.
6. Determine what it will take to get a job or start a business.
7. Create an action plan to reach your goal.
8. Do something every day to work towards your goal.
9. Keep informed about working at home and trends in your industry.

This Week’s News:
News from Leslie: Feeling frustrated in your quest to work at home?
WAHS Podcast: Interview with Pam Guyer Direct Sales Expert
Feeling frustrated in your quest to work at home? I think frustration is one of the biggest challenges to working at home and the reason why many people give up. There are no guarantees, so after awhile of having no results, it’s easy to want to quit.
I understand frustration. Even though I’ve been working at home for many years, I still experience frustration. A new product doesn’t sell. A client stops sending work. Two years ago, I made some changes to Work-At-Home Success that significantly reduced one source of income. I didn’t like losing money, but felt I needed to make the change to keep the site safe and credible. Then last year I lost two other significant sources of freelance income. At the time I was undaunted. I’d been through it before, so all I needed to do was find new work or create new products. But it wasn’t that easy, at least not as easy as in years past. My applications for freelance weren’t acknowledged. Traffic to the site dipped a little. Products didn’t do as well I planned. These frustrations are easier for me to overcome because I have worked at home and know it’s possible. But for someone who hasn’t had success yet, I can see why these set-backs would lead one to give up. But you can’t.
What I know is that the more I do to find clients or market my products, the more opportunities that come my way. Success doesn’t happen quickly. You have to believe that as long as you keep doing the work that can bring results, results will eventually come. And in some cases, the new opportunities are better than the ones you weren’t able to take advantage of. If you’ve been experiencing frustration in your work-at-home quest, come share it at the Work At Home Success Facebook Fan Page or maybe you have some words of wisdom to help others who are feeling discouraged.
