If you’re planning to start an online home business, you may be
wondering what you’re letting yourself in for. Stepping into the unknown
for the first time can be scary, but it could also be one of the most
rewarding things you’ve ever done.
But like any decision you make in life, it’s a good idea to know the pros and cons before starting an online home business.
Loneliness: Starting an online home business can be extremely lonely if you’re used to working with others.
Motivation: Sometimes it can be difficult to motivate yourself
to work, when you’re surrounded by home comforts and temptations. It’s
worth learning to manage your time effectively.
No Escape: Unless you have a dedicated room in your home that
you can use to run your online business, you may sometimes feel that
you’re at work 24/7.
Interruptions:
Friends and family sometimes don’t realise how much time starting an
online home business can take. You will need to get used to dealing with
interruptions, and set boundaries so you have plenty of time to work.
Temptations: When you’re working from home, there are so many
temptations to drag you away from your online business. Set yourself
strict times for watching TV, and chatting to friends on social
networks.
