Do You Have Online Tunnel Vision?
By: Susan at Vector Central

This week, as we work online, let's do our best
to be patient with each other. It's also important
to realize that the person to whom you're emailing
might be taking a day off -- What!!! A day OFF???
Can we do that as online publishers and web site
owners???

YES we can! -- YES, You can!

It's very important to break away from the stress
and demands of "all those emails" that flood in every
day. How many do you receive? In the hundreds?
Some days, along with my daily online work, I just
can't get to it all - can you?

We are working in an online environment where we
can not visually see if the co-worker in the adjacent
office is taking the afternoon off, going to a meeting,
having a family emergency, sick with the flu, or...
taking the week-end off, as normal workers should
for their family growth and to keep good health.

Is your health important??? Well, what a silly
question for me to ask! Of course it is!!! Can it
be ruined by working 24/7 - Yes, it's logical that
no one should work round the clock. We all know
the statistics, the stress books, the ones in the
hospital from not recognizing when they had
gotten caught up with "Online Tunnel Vision."

Have you become one-with-your-computer?
Is your monitor attached to your brain? If so,
then you have "Online Tunnel Vision!" Have
you looked out the window in the last 3 hours?
Do your eyes hurt? Get up and take a 15-minute
break!

What's the solution to break away from Online
Tunnel Vision? Just "Get Up and Walk Away"
for a few minutes or even hours. Your computer
has no control over you - or does it??? Don't wait
till you're sick in the hospital to realize that your
life and family is more important than meeting
the constant demands from your online mailbox.
Your snail mail arrives only once a day at your
office and home. Online mail arrives "every"
single second of "every" single hour of "every"
single day! Now, That's Demanding, isn't it!!!
Only "we" can control ourselves from allowing
these demands to saturate our mental logic and
ability to keep this constant insistence from our
mailbox to ruin our health.

1. Limit your hours of working online each day.

2. Be a good boss to yourself. You deserve 15-
minute breaks!!!

3. When you receive an email from someone
who is annoyed that you didn't answer immediately,
do your best to be kind to them in reply, but let him/
her know that you're human. Aren't they? Sure they
are, but they've forgotten.

4. Yes, you have "all" that work to do today, but a
good boss would tell you it's time to go home after
8 -10 hours and get some rest. Control your
computer! Separate yourself from it! That's right -
just get up and walk away. I'm going to do that right
now and guess what - you're still reading this and it
didn't disturb the world for me to take a needed
break. I'll be back in a few minutes. ;)

5. Ahhhh! That was a nice 15-minute break! Try it -
Just get up and walk away and do something relaxing
for 15 minutes. Then come back and send me the
results.

Make the Leap to Home Business Success

Before you can have a successful home based business, you must first possess 3 "intangibles." These are things that must come from WITHIN you.

 ===> Intangible 1 <===

First,you must have a strong WHY.

Why MUST you have a successful home business? What is driving you? What is it that you CAN'T have in your life anymore and/or what is it that you absolutely MUST HAVE now?

For me, I couldn't stand working 12+ hours a day anymore and missing the experience of my children growing up. I also absolutely HAD TO HAVE the freedom of being able to control my life and finances through a little box (laptop computer) that I could carry with me anywhere in the world and not be tied to anyone's time pressures or demands but my own. That was my carrot and my stick. I felt a great pain deep in my gut of missing out on my children's lives and the incredible freedom that succeeding in a home based business would provide for me. I found my why. You MUST find yours.

===> Intangible 2 <===

You must BELIEVE that it is possible.

If you don't believe that it's POSSIBLE for you to have a successful home based business or make your living from home, you won't. It's that simple.

For me, figuring out that it was possible was just a matter of realizing that many other people were ALREADY making great money working from home. If they could do it, I could too. It would just be a matter of figuring out what those people were doing and then adapting it to my situation.

There is no shortage of undeniable PROOF that people (millions of them) are making money working from home. Just get online and do some research and you'll find countless testimonials and stories of REAL PEOPLE making real money on the Internet. Or head to your local bookstore and you'll find the same documented evidence of this fact. Truth is, it's getting easier and easier to make money with your own home based business.

I've always said that "affiliate marketing" (a simple way to make money from home) is the job of the future. In the old days, you had to go to a potential employer, apply for the position and hope for the best. Now you can simply go to any company you want, fill out their affiliate application and start work immediately. Affiliates are the new working class. In fact, making money with affiliate programs or making your living on the Internet is WAY MORE than possible. It is pretty much (or will be soon enough) unavoidable now. Affiliate marketing is the "job" of the future that's already here TODAY.

===> Intangible 3 <===

You must be willing to MAKE THE LEAP.

Ready, FIRE, then aim... This is the operating philosophy you MUST adopt to succeed with a home based business.

That's backwards for most people who like to aim before they fire. The fact is that home based business success is a moving target... The only thing constant about it is change. You need to stop analyzing the game and simply jump into it. You can't learn from the outside... You have to be *IN THE RING* to truly understand and profit from it. In fact, this is a business where you can truly be earning WHILE you're still learning...

The lesson here is that you will never really be READY to start a home based business. You simply have to start one. It's like having children... You're never really ready, but when it happens you adapt and grow and therefore you succeed. This is what I call: "Making the Leap"!

The good news is that the cost of failure with having your own home based business is very small. In the "brick and mortar" world you need to evaluate things very carefully before you decide to open up a business. It's almost always necessary to invest thousands of dollars to get an offline business off the ground. However, on the Internet you can often start a successful business for less than $100. The Plug-In Profit Site is a great example of this where you can get your own money-making site setup free within 24 hours:

You simply need get IN THE GAME... Each moment that you stay "out there," you're wasting valuable time that you could be learning and skills necessary to build a successful home based business. In fact, if you're not in the game yet, you're ALREADY behind the times... Make the leap to starting and building a successful home business TODAY!
