The 5 Best Reasons to Start Your Own Home Based Business by Joy Almaas

Have you always wanted to be your own boss and not have to account for every moment of your time to someone else? Have you always thought that you could make a lot more money and be a lot more successful working for yourself? Starting your own business is easier than you think… and if you have the drive and ambition to do well, you can make more money in six months than you have made in an entire year working for someone else. If you’ve been thinking about starting your own business… here are the 5 most compelling reasons why you should follow through and be your own boss:

1. You can earn more money! Most people are unhappy working for someone else because they are stuck in the same position and at the same salary for years. When you are working for yourself… the only limit to how much money you can earn is how hard you want to work. Working for yourself puts you in control of your earning potential.

2. You will have more freedom – Do you need to work around your kids’ schedule? Do you have doctor’s appointments or other obligations that make working for someone else difficult because you need particular days and times off? When you work for yourself you can set your own schedule and arrange your time so that you are working when you are the most productive.

3. You can be in your control of your own career – Working for yourself means never having to wait for a promotion or being told that you’re not qualified for a job that pays better and is more interesting. When you are working for yourself there is always room to advance because if you work hard enough you can always find a way to take your business to the next level of success. The payoff is great, and you will be a lot happier, satisfied, and fulfilled with the work that you’re doing.

4. You can do something that you’re good at, it instead of something that just pays the bills – Most people that work for someone else don’t like their jobs, or feel unfulfilled by their jobs. But if you have your own business you can choose to work in an area that interests you AND challenges you. Doing what you like to do and are good at, will make you more successful than you could ever be… working for someone else.

5. You can retire when you want – Instead of being forced to retire at a certain age.

You can keep working if you want to keep working. Or, if you want to quit working when you’re 50 you can do that too. When you work and how much you work will be entirely up to you and your income and benefits won’t be at risk if you choose to retire early, or if you choose not to retire at all.
