Do Something You Are Awesome At

I have seen many home business owners join the wrong business due to the promises of riches. Selling lotions, potions, and magic notions is not smart if you don’t like pushing those products. I have seen real estate agents fail for years because they hate selling, showing houses, or writing out contracts. People start blogs and hate to write. Don’t waste time in the wrong business.

Here is a hint you know what you are fantastic at. If you don’t, ask your wife, partner, or close friend. You excel at something and you can make money doing exactly that. I write, speak, and succeed in my business because the core of my business is writing and speaking. I grew my internet business by writing and speaking. Find your awesome and do it.

Put in the Reps

The fact is it takes time to prosper in business. It took time for you to learn how to ride a bike, learn how to drive, swim, heck it took time for you to learn how to do your job. It’s the same for your business. Those stories you hear about people who hit the jackpot in 90 days, those newbies who made six figures in six months, they put in the reps.

If you examine the successful people they struggled early in their businesses. They put in the reps with failed companies, failed businesses, lost sales, and bad products. Furthermore, they lost money on marketing and product launches, and sometimes they just had bad luck. They went through the grind.

Practice, practice, practice. Put in the reps in getting better at your business. When you keep your day job you can choose the people who you want to work with and what products you want to…
