Basic Principles For The Success Of Any Entrepreneur

Many people maintain that success in any enterprise is a specific result or outcome, a destination at which they advance one day. Let me assert you that success is more than the realization of one goal, or even several goals. Success is not a specific destination... it's a direction you settle.

 Running an online business, like any other business out there, is subject to distinct principles, even laws by which all of us can originate an enterprise prosper - or wither and die. Obstacles are everywhere and it sometimes seems that the only possible outcome is failure. There is no need to concern, however. I am going to name the three and a half principles for online success and try to present you the benefits of consistent, persistent and sure action that delivers success, not as a destination, but as a direction you determine.

1. The principle of contrivance

 This principle states that, be it in online marketing or anywhere else, nothing will manifest without device. You must first settle to manifest a obvious result or outcome before it can transpire. Ask yourself what it is that you want, how remarkable money do you want to fetch, what kind of a relationship would you like to experience, etc. Once you've decided what it is that you want (this is significant, never mediate of things you do not want), move to the second principle.

2. The principle of attention

 This is the harder step as you can imagine. Placing attention on the things that can empower you and your business is very considerable because, as I have witnessed in my beget life and career, the dissimilarity between those who have succeeded in any enterprise, made a fortune online or built a phenomenal relationship and those who have failed miserably in any venture is that they have placed attention on different things. The first focused their attention on improving, perfecting and learning from mistakes. The ones who failed miserably failed at improving, perfecting and learning from mistakes. The successful ones placed their attention on those things that brought them a reason to continue. Those that failed focused and gave attention to things that showed them only failure. Guess what they got. It's natural to be insecure, to lose hope, but it is not natural to remain unnerved and hopeless. As I have said, obstacles are everywhere, your job is to fabricate mistakes, to learn from them and to grow. Focus all of your attention on the things that you can exhaust to succeed and I guarantee, you will! Nurture the spirit of correctly focused attention and life, not unbiased your business, will commence to blossom.

3.  The principle of giving

“It is one of the most blooming compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try to encourage another without helping himself.”    Ralph Waldo Emerson

 This is distinguished, trust me. You must first give to receive and you can easily present this simple, but effective principle. I give away free stuff all the time and I regain joy in the fact that many of the people that receive it fetch something of value and it doesn't matter if they join me in any of my programs or not. Somehow, I peaceful earn a lot of money. Somehow, I detached receive value. Giving can be its believe reward, but I can roar you, it won't end there.

3 & 1/2. The portion where you receive

 This is tricky. Our minds tend to sabotage all our efforts by telling us we are not qualified of receiving the gifts or fruits of our labor. hiss yourself daily that you are the one that deserved this and you are the one who created this. All you'll have to do next is devour your life and your work. You deserve it.


3 Essential Boundaries for Mom Entrepreneurs and Their Husbands

In the beginning, I thought it was going to be a breeze when my husband, Terry, joined me working full-time in my business.  If anyone could do it, we could!  We already had a healthy relationship built on trust and respect.  We communicated well.  We both strongly believed in what we were doing.  We understood the need to help each other with the children, keeping the house, and with the business.  We planned to allow for fluctuations in income to keep stresses over money to a minimum.  Yet I still wasn’t prepared.

For anyone considering working with your spouse, here are 3 Essential Boundaries for Entrepreneurial Couples to help to ease your transition:

1. Clarify expectations for work/home.  

Nothing can prepare you for the blurring of boundaries and turf that occur as you transition into working together.  When you join together with your spouse, most likely, both of you have experienced success throughout your careers, and have developed your own working style.  Suddenly you have a whole new dynamic in your relationship with your spouse you must learn to work through.  I always knew that we had different gifts and talents:  Terry is very techie and he loves to write, and I am a people person who is an administrative whiz.  Even though I should have probably seen it coming, I was still surprised at the difference in our work styles.  I multi-task all day long, and he prefers to work on one project at a time.  Just like being newlyweds all over again, we had to put some effort into getting to know each other on a whole new level to be able to work well together.

Beth Butler, creator of the Boca Beth Program has some helpful tips for clarifying expectations with your spouse.  “I make us lunch each day and we try to talk about BOCA BETH items that are pressing.  It's our time to reconnect - he works from home for the wine company he represents and I work from home sharing my passion for second language learning with young children.  A funny mix, but it works!  We talk about what each of us has planned the next day so there are no surprises - and I use that time to ask for his help.  I can't expect him to guess what I need so I have learned to be very specific.”


2. Schedule time for love.

Most entrepreneurial couples complain they have less time together than before.  It is possible to work beside your spouse in the same office all day long and barely speak on a personal level.  How difficult is it to turn off your cell phone and talk a walk with your love?  It is imperative to make it a point to schedule time for your relationship so that the business does not overtake it.  Terry and I plan ahead to sneak away for lunch or to take a break at Starbucks.  We have found if we don’t take the time to schedule in these lunch or coffee dates, then they are less likely to happen as we work to meet deadlines or get a project done.  We haven’t yet been able to master scheduling “regular dates”, but its next on our list of priorities in order to help keep our close relationship.

3. Schedule time for yourself.  

It can be a shock when you suddenly have so much time with your spouse.  In your previous life, they left at 7 AM and came home at 6 PM, and then you discussed your day during dinner.  Now you spend most (if not all) of the day with them, and during dinner, there is nothing new to discuss.  Where is the time for you?  Karyn Fagan, Founder of Team Women, tells “We both have hobbies that we love outside of the house so we have that important away time.” 

Terry and I certainly have a long way to go as an Entrepreneurial Couple, but we have made it through our entrepreneurial “honeymoon” period.  Each day, we work together to reach our goals and dreams.  We understand when we help each other we will reach our dreams sooner, so we help each wherever its needed!
