Setting Work at Home Goals

There are goals you need to set for your work at home career. Asking yourself the following questions will help you to establish your work at home goals.

1. How much money do I need to make to keep my current standards of living? You don't want to make less than you are making currently. You need to look at your monthly expenses and decide what you have to have money wise to pay your bills. We all know you want to make more money than you do currently and that is a great goal to have, but you need to know what the least amount you can make is going to be.

2. How much time do I want to invest into a work at home job? Each work at home job will require a different amount of time invested. You need to decide how much time you are willing to devote to a work at home job. Too little time and you will not be successful. A job will not run itself. Any work at home job will require you to put in time and effort.  You also need to ask yourself how much time do you have to invest in a work at home job. If you have kids that are young you won't be able to devote eight hours of daytime, you may need to consider an evening job after they have gone to bed.The amount of time you want to invest into a work at home job is a very important goal to set.

3. What do you hope to achieve from your work at home job? Are you looking to supplement your current income? Maybe your spouse's income? Are you looking to completely make a living by working at home? Are you looking to work for someone else, or be your own boss? Figuring out exactly what you want can be difficult, but it is an important when setting your goals.
