Tips for staying focused on your business
If you are easily distracted, staying focused on your business can
be harder than doing the actual work of your business! It is very easy
to procrastinate, especially when you are a WAHM. There are always 'so
many other things to do'.
Here is a secret that you may not have heard yet: The dishes can
wait! The laundry can wait! So feel free to make those phone calls or
answer those emails. The laundry and dishes will still be there,
waiting for you! However, if you wait too long to call a client back,
they may move on to someone who gets back to them faster than you do.
Why did you become a WAHM in the first place? Did you need to bring
in an extra $500 a month to pay off credit cards? Was it to put money
away for your children's college fund? Or was it to save for
retirement? Whatever the reason, write it down and put it where you
will see it on a daily basis. When you are feeling distracted, look at
what you wrote down. It will be easier to work when you remember why
you are working in the first place.
You may want to team up with another WAHM. Send each other your
goals and keep one another accountable. Call each other at the end of
the day and discuss what you accomplished; you can share your successes
or lend each other a sympathetic ear over things that didn't go as you
planned.
Stay motivated by setting daily, weekly and monthly goals. If you
"work backwards" you will create a road map to your success. For
instance, if you are in direct sales and your financial goal is to sell
$1500 in product that month. Do the math and you'll see that you need
to sell $375 of product each week. Now, how many home parties do you
need to hold each week to accomplish that? How many phone calls do you
need to make each day in order to schedule those parties?
When you accomplish your goals, give yourself a little treat to remind yourself that you worked hard and achieved success!
