Home Based Business and Attila The Hun - Part 1

I was going through some of my piled up stuff the other day and came across one of the old training seminars I used to put on, it was based on WESS ROBERTS great book "The Leadership Secrets of Attila The Hun". Feeling the need to procrastinate (I really didn't want to sort and chuck my junk that day, more important things to do, besides I was comfortable sleeping on half a bed) I sat down and read the training outline I forgot even existed. Half a pack of cigarettes and 3 beers later it struck me, this guy from the 5th Century actually had the knowledge and a plan for running a successful Internet Home Based Business! The creative juices started flowing (maybe it was the beer) and I thought it would be fun to put together a multi part blog on Attila's uncanny insight.
Without further ado, Attila (schooled by the Romans and extremely intelligent for his time) shares his "success secrets".

"You,ve Got to Want to Be in Charge"
You must remember that success in your office will depend largely upon your sustained willingness to work hard. Sweat rules over inspiration.

Let's face it, we were all inspired by something/someone, had a great idea or came across an opportunity we couldn't pass up. The result was some sort of business, a way we could earn a living on our own, make our own rules. Success and the profits we seek do not come easy, IT IS HARD WORK, the more hours and sweat we put into our venture will do nothing less than bring success.

On goals
Superficial goals lead to superficial results.

Goal setting is one of the most important chores (hard work) we need to address and on a daily basis. Be realistic not idealistic when setting your goals, put them in an order that makes sense to you, be definitive in your process.

Advice and Counsel
A chieftain who asks the wrong questions always hears the wrong answers.

You're in charge, pinpoint the problem, research the subject, then formulate your questions and go to the proper sources for your answer. To take it a step further, ask your question 3 times consecutively - you will get the right answer!

On Problem Solving
Huns should focus on opportunities, not problems.

You can waste an unbelievable amount of time focusing on problems. We already set up our goals, let's stay on track, I guarantee you'll be surprised how few problems will arise. Besides, it's the opportunities that makes a business successful!

On Training
Adequate training of Huns is essential to war and cannot be disregarded in peacetime.

Be better than adequate, strive to learn something new everyday! Seek out the masters of your business niche, they've been there before! Training and knowledge produce profits! If your looking to succeed and profit in your business, I highly recommend these two websites, Empowerism and Success University.

Wishing all of you Great Success,
