Business From Home?
While so many dream of running a business from home, very few seem to truly pull it off. The question is, why does it seem so difficult to build a business from home? I believe there are five key reasons that most people are not successful in running a home based business.
#1: It Takes Work…Plain and simple, people just don’t put in the work. They pay a small price of entry and never take the business seriously. Too many people are seeking a lottery ticket rather than developing the business and themselves.
#2: No business sense… I see this time and time again, whether for crypto, or some other opportunity. I never understood why people think they can possibly grow a real, sustainable business, just by throwing their links into group chats or direct messages. I mean seriously, following you back on Instagram is not an indicator that I am interested in your opportunity.

#3: Friends & Family…How many people are told, especially in network marketing, to make a list of 200 people they know and go and recruit them? While this may have worked back in the day, it is not effective in this day and age. By hunting down the people you know, what will really happen is they will avoid you, unfollow you on social media, or even worse, block you. You will ultimately end up in the NFL. No, you are not a star athlete. In this case, NFL stands for No Friends Left.
#4: Belief…Do you believe in yourself? Do you believe in your product? How do you feel about the company you represent? I think these are 3 very crucial questions you must ask yourself. If you don’t have a true belief in yourself, you’re done before you even begin. However, don’t count yourself out just yet. There are plenty of personal development books and videos to help get you on the right track. As far as product and company, this is much easier. How do you really feel about it? If you aren’t doing cartwheels(not literally of course) about your opportunity, then you should reconsider what your options are.
#5: Support…Way too many recruiters, upline, or managers will leave a new person to just hang out there once they get them to sign up. This is a huge mistake. Although there are people who will never follow direction and are not coachable, there are many, whom if they just had direction, could potentially have massive success.
I am sure there are other reasons why people don’t succeed in a home based business, but there are also ways to all but guarantee success. The key is doing things the right way, staying consistent, and finding the business that best fits your goals and dreams.
