Beware The Isms by Dan Reinhold
A home business can serve any purpose you want: provide pocket
money, pay the car loan or even the mortgage, produce funds for
the kids' college education. Properly cared for and nurtured, it
will serve its chosen purpose well.
Even a robust, vigorous home business may become UNhealthy.
There are potent dangers that often arise, horrible maladies to
sicken them and make them wither away to nothing but a memory.
Beware...The Isms.
The first is perhaps the most cruel, as nourishment and care of
the home business becomes erratic and faltering. Without the
benefit of continuous attention and strengthening activity, it
can fall prey to Sometimeism.
Sometimeism is a terrible fate for the home business, as its
energies are sapped by occasional and casual efforts of brief
and uncertain duration. As these tidbits become ever fewer and
farther between, the poor weakened home business succumbs to
starvation and worse, neglect.
Another plague that can strike a home business is much more
insidious: little by little, it is worn down and exhausted by an
acute lack of seriousness.
This nightmare is called Hobbyism.
When afflicted with Hobbyism, a home business feels the draining
effect of too many hours in forums and chat rooms, exacerbated
by still more hours checking emails. Any business without its
very life's blood - commerce, enterprise, trade - is doomed
while the unforgiving hours grow and multiply with online games
and Flash presentations.
How may these unthinkable diseases be thwarted and the tender
lives of so many home businesses be spared?
The answer, dear friend, is simple prevention.
Maintenance of its young business muscles by regular performance
of commerce-building exercise fueled by generous doses of RGAs,
supplemented by the occasional between-meal article or
informative/helpful posting is essential to the growth and
development of a healthy, strong home business lasting many
happy years.
Please remember that to properly care for your home business,
you must give it what it needs most - lots of attention by
promotion, and plenty of nourishment from heaping helpings of
the required daily RGAs.
You and your home business may then enjoy many good years and
profits together.
