If finding ideas for working at home is not the first challenge, then what is the first challenge? First of all the tense of this question is wrong! Since you are already trying to find ideas for working at home then you have overcome the first challenge.
The first challenge is to realize the fact that you have to establish a home based business. The fact that you are already searching for ideas means that you have already crossed this bridge. This realization is crucial.
Normally when the idea of establishing our own business crosses our minds, we get stuck with the details and obstacles of establishing a traditional business. Once we hit that obstacle we realize that the costs will burry us alive, and the thought becomes a fantasy that we will never be able to achieve.
Once we expand our horizons and realize that a traditional business is not the only way to establish our own business, the skies become the limit and we find ourselves in the midst of abundant alternatives.
With this realization the answer to the next question becomes easy. What is the alternative to a traditional business? Of course a traditional business is one where you have to rent an office, a shop, a warehouse or any other place were you business need to be conducted. Therefore, the alternative to that is to work at home.
Congratulations! You have said it, "I want to work at home." Just by thinking or saying these words you have overcome your first obstacle. This is the tricky part now. If you are not careful with the next steps you follow, you might end up with no business at all.
The words "I want to work at home" bring a lot of energy and excitement into a person's life and the following steps might not be well planned and therefore, the outcome will not be favorable at all.
Once you are struck with the idea, take a deep breath, sit down for a while, and then ask yourself the following questions:
1-Do I want to have a job working at home?
2-Do I want to establish a business working at home? If the answer is "yes" to this question then:
a.Do I want to sell my own product/service?
b.Do I want to sell other people's products and services?
Once you get the answers to these questions, then you can start with your search for ideas for working at home without being confused. If you do not make your decision before you start the search, the outcome of your search will be very confusing for you. You will be getting all sorts of ideas regarding all the above aspects and it will be very hard for you to make a sound decision.
