An e-zine for unstoppable entrepreneurs
Issue # 3, October 5, 2008
Greetings,
Wherever you are on the home business journey, you're up against the prevailing challenge of how to manage your time.
I remember how I used to cram in so much work I often inconvenienced myself for the sake of my customers. I just wanted to be perceived as a "yes" person who could get things done and make things happen.
But that approach sometimes backfired. Too often I found myself dealing with late nights and unbelievable stress and drudgery throughout – just because I wanted to build my business hard and fast.
Sometimes, of course, we misjudge what we’re capable of; other times the circumstances dictate that we’re temporarily over-extended.
But in general, why take it on if it’s going to be a headache or a hassle – just for the sake of making more money?
So I say, only bite off what you can chew. (This doesn’t mean you should play small!)
It’s just a reminder that having your own home business is having your own home business. Treat yourself right and build a business you love -- not one that beats you up like the jobs you once had.

5 EASY WAYS TO PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS
I come from a marketing/PR background so marketing has always been a consideration for me as a home business owner.

Here's some advice for home business that is so easy (and inexpensive) to implement, you may as well apply it right now!

IS YOUR VISION BIG ENOUGH?
Is the very thought of a bigger vision daunting to you? I remember a moment myself when the idea of taking myself from doing my business in a small, "comfortable" way vs. doing it in a manner beyond my imagination, having success beyond what I currently saw as possible, was quite scary. Titillating, yet terrifying.
But wow, did I start to stretch…

BOOK OF THE MONTH: Secrets of the Millionaire Mind
I've raved about T. Harv Eker's "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind" book in several articles on my website. I've read the book about eight times now and am probably due for another read. It takes that much to retrain our brains and alter our financial blueprint -- which is something Eker's Millionaire Mind Intensive weekends are designed to do.
If you've been working hard and making money -- yet always seem to end up right back where you started -- register for the Millionaire Mind Intensive and discover how to reset your mind around money.
