Start a business from home with a full-time job

I get a lot of questions from people asking how they can start a home business, if they also have a full time job. With 8-15 hours on average away from home, dedicated to a full-time job; It can be very difficult to fit a home business into your daily schedule. If you want to have that home business and earn extra money, you need to make adjustments to your daily routine.
If you get home from work or the gym at the end of the day, you may not want to work out at home. It’s okay. What time do you usually get up in the morning, 6-7-8 am? If you wake up at 8 am, make a lifestyle adjustment to start waking up at 6 am Get up early and work from home in the morning. If having some extra money in the home means a lot, the adjustment will be easy. Dedicate 2 simple hours to your business every day before leaving in the morning. Two hours a day doesn’t sound like much, but it adds up over time. It’s more than enough for you to go part-time. Doing it every day will make it a routine so you don’t forget anything. When things get easier for you and you learn the tricks of the trade, you can take on more.

Or you may be willing to work from home at the end of your long day. That’s how I started. Some people don’t like to work from home after a long day at their full-time job. But I found it much easier. I put in 2-5 hours a day with no problem after my 8 hour day job. I did not have children because I know that this can be a problem. But we have a positive note; I have helped many moms who only worked 2 hours a day at home to start. Two hours a day is that magic number, when you can accomplish enough in your new part-time home business. When your home business gets off the ground and transitions to a full time home business; be ready to work 8-18 hours a day. But the rewards are worth it.

Everyone wants to quit their day job and work from home. It’s a lot of work, but I’d rather work from home than report to some job that I hope I don’t lose. Job security is a very important factor these days. There was a time when you could work in a place all your life and retire there. Not anymore. There are always big layoffs and the unemployment rate has skyrocketed. It finally came to light that we may be in a recession. I just have to laugh at this. Although that’s another story. That said, people like to have a backup plan in case they ever lose their job. It is a normal survival trait to always make sure there is food on the table. Most people just don’t know where to go for good information on starting a home business.

However, starting and running a business is very easy once you get the hang of things. It’s a LOT of work to run a successful home business. Yes, you can stay home in your skibbies. You can take a break whenever you want. But you can never slack off on your home business. Keep it up every day.

Make a life changing decision and dedicate 2 hours a day, every day (if you can do more) to your new home business. Even if you only do research for a few weeks. As long as you get the ball rolling, nothing will stop you. Don’t trust that full-time job anymore. Start your home business now and secure your family’s financial standing for now and for the future. Your work may not be there for you tomorrow. But your home business will be there as long as you want it to be there. Start your home business today and don’t give up!
