Black Friday is Great for Work at Home Moms!

I got a really good deal at Office Max on a HP All in One printer, fax, scanner. It's wireless!

Many thanks to my tech guy (hubby) who installed it.

Now I just need a black, wooden file cabinet to complete my home office.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Once again I'm thankful to God for blessing my business.

For giving me the strength to get up in the early morning hours and to get through 17 hour days.

I'm thankful for the professional mentors in my life.

I'm thankful for the brilliant entrepreneurs/clients that I get to learn from.

I'm thankful for clients who are doing such good in this world and they've been able to use me to reach the community.

I'm thankful for the internet, my new computer and the beautiful home office my husband made for me.

You know you're a WAHM

You know you're a WAHM and grandma is visiting. While working in the home office, the wonderful sound of someone else doing the dishes as well as fresh baked cookies fills the air.

Traits of Successful Work-at-Home Business Owners
By Mary Byers and Jill Hart

While many people like the idea of working in their pajamas and having a minute-commute down the hallway, not everyone is cut out to work from home. Those who do so successfully have the following traits:

Passion. It’s essential to love what you do and do what you love when working from home. Passion will keep you going even when the going gets tough, as it does in even the best of jobs.

Self-Motivation. It’s important that you’re a self-starter, especially when you are your own boss. There’s no one to motivate you other than yourself when you are self-employed.

Resourcefulness. Work -at-home CEOs aren’t just the head of the company, they ARE the company. That means being the janitor, the technology guru, the marketing manager, and the brains behind the operation. Often, this requires skills you don’t possess. But when you’re resourceful, you’ll be able to find the knowledge you need to keep your business moving forward.

Confidence. It takes guts to run your own enterprise and confidence to manage it effectively. Though there will be times you experience self-doubt, overall you need to have the confidence that you can, and will, figure things out when you run into obstacles.
