A home business is, to me, more than just work. It’s more than just a business, too. To me my home based business is my ticket to a better life; a life where dreams become reality and where I work all day on things that I love working on.
When I started out on the path to my home business I didn’t really know what I wanted. I didn’t have any measure of how I could consider myself successful. Initially the extent to which I satisfied my dreams seemed to be a good way to judge myself.
After a while I found that my dreams moved as I grew as a person, and these were ultimately not a good way to set my goals and targets. I had, with apologies to Kipling’s wonderful poem ‘If’, made dreams my master.
Don’t get me wrong: dreams are a Very Good Thing. They give us something to hope for and something to work towards. I do not, however, think that they are useful to your home based business in a purely pragmatic way. Find some other way to judge your business’ performance and use that instead: this will be easier and more useful for you.
