Business or Hobby

In 2010 I left Corporate America to work from home full time. 2017 starts my seventh year of working from home full time. If I could share some things with the new people coming into the online and work from home industry it would be these 4 things.

1) Start with something that you really enjoy. For instance if you like cars,fashion or clothes do your best to choose something that reflects cars,fashion or clothes. My reason for sharing this is because you will be creating a business around your passion. Yes it will take time, sacrifice and money to get your business going. There will be a learning curve. This could take anywhere from 3 to 5 years with no guarantee of success.

2) Become a student of whatever industry you decide to be a part of. Since there will be learning curve you will have to be patient and consistent while you create the vision you have for your business.

3) Remain flexible, teachable and be willing to adapt to the many changes in business that are headed your way.

4) You will need to establish a business name, create a bank account in that business name and try to make some money. If you don't set up a business you run the risk of creating yourself an expensive hobby.

I'm glad you are able to work from home full time. That is what I am in the process of doing now. It may take some time before I can work remotely full time, but at least i will be finished with this dead-end office job.

Great points .. Cheers, William.
