We have all had days that have been perfectly planned and organized to a "t" and then for some reason something happens which turns your perfectly planned day into a ridiculous frenzy where you feel like you are scrambling to try to get everything done.As a mom with a career at home which is worked around my two young children, this tends to happen every once in a while.

My Comfort ZoneUnknownI used to have a comfort zonewhere I knew I wouldn't fail.The same four walls and busyworkwere really more like jail.I longed so much to do the things I'd never done before,But stayed inside my comfort zone and paced the same old floor.I said it didn't matter that I wasn't doing much.I said I didn't care for things like commission checks and such.I claimed to be so busy with

With my husband being the sole financial provider for our family and things slowly getting tight, something had to give. We were tired of "getting by", we wanted to get ahead. We wanted to know that when my husband was ready to retire from the police department that we would be debt free, with the exception of maybe our mortgage. We wanted to have a college savings plan for the kids. My

With my experience and with researching dozens of different types of home businesses, I would like to share that when choosing a home business, there are some key success factors that I believe are critical for long term success.
