Is Home Based Business Hard?

Is Home Based Business Hard?
Not that long ago I had a friend, who has struggled with
her belief in the industry, to share with me that network
marketing is hard work.

Well from time to time, I have heard from prospects &
people outside Network Marketing industry & it's critics
that the industry is a lot of --h-a-r-d w-o-r-k-- and
that it takes too long to see cash flow.

Well, the "hard work" part is accurate, for sure, and we
should never deceive people about that -- and that is 'why'
the ultimate rewards can be so very high.

So in a nutshell here is what I answered - Is network
marketing difficult? Yes, and so is anything 'else' in life
that's worthwhile.

But let's be honest - "how" difficult is it? - and,
difficult in comparison to What? What other options are
'out there' for personal business ownership that are as
easy to get set up in?

H-e-r-e is what's "difficult" - -

It is difficult .... when you tell your family that there
is not enough money this Christmas to buy them what they
want.

It is difficult - knowing the rust bucket we call a car is
eating us alive in maintenance, but we cannot afford a new
one...

It is difficult - to go to our annual performance review
(job), and even though we have worked "hard" for another
year, we come away "empty handed"...

It is difficult - knowing that we shop by "sticker", rather
than whether the garment "looks good" on us...

It is difficult - knowing that we married a wonderful
person (our spouse), and promised them the world, and yet
for the next 20 years, we look at "balancing the budget"
and figuring out what "sacrifices" must be made...

It is difficult - always lowering our "dreams" to meet our
"means"...

It is difficult - knowing that we have spent 30-40 years of
our life working for someone else -- only to realize that
we will be retiring on 1/3 of what we cannot live on
"today"...

It is difficult - knowing that the fish are biting this
week -- and we cannot drop what we're doing and take our
Dad fishing...

So ' What are we going to do about it? We have nasty
habits about rationalizing, procrastinating and skirting
important things, rather than 'facing' the issues. Too
often we allow "others" --who do not pay our bills -- who
do not share our dreams -- to direct "our" future!

Is network marketing "Really" so difficult after all? - Is
it so 'traumatic' for us to tell people about our
breakthrough products? Is it so 'difficult' for us to
understand that if we "tell enough people" - and "work"
this business "hard" - for a few years - that they might
not have to ever confront some of the nasty alternatives --
and that instead, we could create "choices" for ourselves?

By this time I was really on a roll and I ended the
conversation this way ........

Would you be willing to "work really hard" for next 3-4
years, so that you could be well on your way to putting
our family in a more comfortable home? Would you be
willing to "work really hard" for a year or two - so that
you could send your children to college, chosen by
"excellence" rather than one chosen by "price" (the same
criteria we used for clothes shopping)??

Would you be willing?
