Do not be pessimistic in your Home-based Business. Love what you do!

By Daniel Carlson


Ever considered how much your disposition reflects your capability to succeed?

"Nobody tells me. No-one keeps me informed. I make it 17 days come Friday since anyone chatted to me." Eeyore

I can recollect watching cartoons with my children and watching the ragged small Eeyore on Winnie the Pooh. His house would fall or his tail would come off or he landed surprisingly in the river and Eeyore, in a deep monotone voice would say, "When stuck in the brook, it is better to dive and swim to the bank yourself before someone drops a huge stone on your chest in an attempt to hoosh you there." Attitude is everything.

Eeyore always predicted something bad to happen - and it customarily did. We often giggled at his misery either because we find it seriously funny or ironic. Sometimes art truly does imitate life.

Charlie Brown, Miserable Sack and Ziggy were also among the ranks of cartoon's great pessimists. And if they weren't altogether dismal then they were at least bereft of the well-known "break" that would grant them success.

We all watch these cartoons and we laugh because we've been where they are. Maybe we are really giggling at ourselves because we will be able to identify with the feelings of failure.

If you are seeking to start a work-at-home business you need to know that by choosing your perspective you can significantly alter how you make a response to the difficulties that come up.

Take this small quiz.

1. Do unhappinesses cause you to feel like a failure or do you look at the dissatisfaction as a new opportunity?

2. When you hit a road-block are you more inclined to stop dead in your tracks or look for a new path to success?

3. Do you go into a business idea with the base belief that you will probably fail or do you at last believe you will succeed?

4. Are you worked up about your work at home business or are you feeling barely apathetic to the concept of owning a work at home business?

The solutions to these very easy questions can help you understand if your perspective of work-at-home businesses is bound up in pessimism or if you are more hopeful in your outlook on life and business.

"No Give and Take. No Exchange of Thought. It gets you nowhere, particularly if the other person's tail is only just in sight for the second half of the conversation." - Eeyore

Often I'm wondering what the statistical data might be on home-based businesses that failed simply because the owner had given up before they ever actually got started? Honestly, don't you wish there was a method to track that information. It might likely have a profound result on our own business outlook.

Everybody likes to be around people who have a positive perspective and a good idea about where they'd like to go with their life and business. A positive outlook is attractive to others, yet it appears fewer and less individuals possess something that they can ultimately choose, but opt for refusal instead.

If you've been acting sort of like Eeyore maybe it's time for a perspective restructuring. Your home-based business may depend on it.
