 Hi Everyone, I just love this forum, it has such great advice and info.
 
 One thing to maybe help some of you is this.. When joining a new business adventure try and commit for at least a year.. Now I know that may seem long , but learning a new business takes time and hard work. It does not happen overnight.
 
 Don't overwhelm yourself by joining too many different opportunities at a time. Commit to one or two and work the system.
 
 Stay positive there is alot of tirekickers out there , don't let that get you down, you want people to join your business because they want to gain independence to work from home. Those are the people to focus on.
 
 There is a huge amount of free resources available to us online to help us build our business.  Search for them on google.
 
 To better organize yourself make a folder for each day of the week and place it on your desktop, In those folders will be the things to do for that day, go to those folders everyday and  make sure you apply those techniques to build your business..
 
 well I hope this helps you ..
 
 thanks for reading..

 I think that is good advice for the most part, as making money in any business venture does require time and effort.  However, many people discover that they are in the wrong business long before a year is up, and if that is the case, it is best to move on to a new one as soon as possible.

 Once you have started a business, stay with it for a year or two.
 Work hard for it and be persistent.

 Great post!
 
 Sometimes I think that people will join a program and expect to make $500 a day within a month. Often, this is not the case.
 
 If one does stick with it for a year, this is achievable.
 
 The marketers who are making big money have worked hard, held to their vision and never gave up.
 
 This will be a great year for all of us!
 Victoria

 I agree with you.  Plus, many home business' are REAL home business', not just here today and gone tomorrow.  Look for something that has been in business for at least several year's instead of the latest and greatest pre-launch.
 
 It is also hard work to get a real home business going and growing!   I go nuts when people tell me they want to make 3-10K a month, but can only work it a  few hours a week.  I know I am working mine as if it were a salaried full time job, because I have a full time income I need to replace.

 I think most people that start a home business have done research and committed a great deal of time and energy into their venture. Not to mention money. I suggest that before starting up a home business, do some market research and find out approximately how long it will take before you start seeing a profit. Work this into your business plan! In other words don't quit your day job too soon or you may run into problems.
