HOME BASED BUSINESS: 5 TIPS ON HOW TO SET GOALS
The success of a business correlates with the goals that have been set.
This means that if you set SMART goals, then your chance of starting a successful business is high. So are you planning to set up a home based business?
If yes then below are different ways to set goals and expand them to your personal and business world.
- Determine your goals in life
When setting goals, it is very important to ask yourself important questions like what do you want to achieve in life and by when.
Do you want to open a successful home based online business or you want to be a renowned fashion blogger? The goals that you set should correspond with what you want to achieve in life.
- Breakdown the bigger picture to small goals
Once you have clearly identified what you want in life and what you want to achieve within a certain period of time, you need to break down the bigger picture into smaller and more specific goals.

You need to transform the dream that you have into reality based on the business that you are planning to start.
The small goals need to be more specific and measurable.
For instance, if you are planning to open a fashion blog, you need to research and know what it entails, how the business is going to run as well as how you will make it profitable.
- Create short term goals
Once you have come up with more specific goals that are measurable, you need to create short terms goals that will take you to where you plan to see yourself in future. Create short term target and work toward achieving them.
Give yourself reasonable deadline but it should not be more than one year. Start with easy to achieve goals then go to more complex ones as you progress.
- Set goals that are achievable
The mistake that many people who plan to start home based business do is setting goals that are too hard to achieve. Although it is good to push yourself to the limit, it is very important to be realistic when setting goals.
If you set goals that are too high, you will not be able to meet them, a factor that will lower your self-esteem. The goals that you set should not be so easy or so hard to achieve.
- Adjust your goals periodically
As you continue with your journey of starting your own home based business, you will come to discover later that some goals that you had set actually need to be adjusted in order to conform to the bigger picture. You need to be flexible enough to adjust your goals if need be.
