Stuck with planning and no execution...

Well I guess you have to set your priorities first. Which values you most will be the first to be implemented and taken action to. For now, it seems that you are more focused on you children. But eventually you have to make one of those other plans of yours to get off and start earning since it may just be for your child's future that you should be doing that goal of yours. But of course take time to find time and value for your plans. Any plans without value is pointless. That is maybe the reason why you cannot start with any of your plans right now since you feel there is no value with the plans you have right now. Find it and so you can start with it already.

Wow , you really have many good ideas in your mind. Kids grow fast. Don't worry, your plans will be executed sooner or later. Maybe online clothes business is available even now. You can take care of your baby while run your business at home. Thanks for sharing!

Oh i do know how you feel, i felt that way too after i gave birth to my youngest. I feel like i want to do a lot of things particularly in the earning department but then i am stuck as i have a little kiddo. When i got a nanny that was the time when iw as able to do the things i want to do...

There is plenty you can do even being at home with the kids, but you have to start small. Be careful making and selling food because there are all sorts of rules for that. What kind of online clothing bbusiness did you have?

hey, you have to get those ideas working,or else you'll end up doing nothing. before, I also have the same thinking as you have now. but now, I can do things I like to do. but I'm sure you can find a gap in between your very hectic schedules to squeeze in those ideas of yours.... how about letting your husband get the kids to McDonald for an hour or two? 2 hours might be well enough to start off, don't you think? TIME MANAGEMENT is the answer.... hope you can set your time well..

Hello there. Its good that you have the ideas for simple entrepreneurship. I have done this before too, selling simple necklace and other accessories which i make myself and sold it for higher price. Although in the end i did make some profit, but i figure it was not worth my time and effort but it is a good experience. My suggestion to you is that you can try out with something smaller and see if it works. what is important is that you try to do this for at least a month and observe whether you are suitable for it. As for your constraint of having to take care of your kids, perhaps you can start off with something that you can spend your time doing at home, together with your kids. Not sure how old your kids are, but if they are of considerable age, they can even help you. You mentioned selling goodies and refreshments, that they can help you sell it too. As they grow even older then you will have more time to move on to other opportunities. My advice is still to try it out, if you never try you will never know.

Well, I think that problem can be resolve by time management. You can do all your plan if you set time manageable. Make a list of thing that you want to do and try to divide time in different task that you need to do daily...

This sounds tough! So, you are stuck at home watching the kids and taking care of the house...But also trying to earn some extra money? I have earned a bit working on a site called ChaCha. Not sure if it is hiring or what countries it hires from, but you could definitely check it out and find out. One month I made $200 from it. Of course I was on it A LOT to earn that amount, though, it wasn't easy! I have also sold a lot of my old clothes and shoes both on eBay and at a local consignment shop and made a pretty good amount on that. You could also try selling anything around the house that you don't use anymore - appliances, books, movies, etc - on a site like Craigslist or Kijiji. Maybe even have a garage sale? Best of luck to you in your money making!!

This was something that I found to be the case with me when I decided that I wanted to try working at home. I spent so much time thinking about the great things that I was going to do and I spent no time at all actually trying to execute those great ideas. Finally, however, I did come to the point that I knew that it was time to take action. I will admit that I'm not able to make a ton of money from home, but I do think that the little bit that I am able to make is something that is helping our family out.

Hi there! You have done on making a list of jobs you would like to do. Then I think you should start doing it little by little. Otherwise you won't make it and will not going to start doing it. Even if it just a little but at least you started it. So start it today!!(^^)

Hi do you like to write there a lot of free lance jobs around if you are good at writing and you can do it a home just check each counties laws on keeping or selling the right to your stories go to search and look up writer digest this is a good magazine for beginer writers it does not hurt to check it out

With such a busy life, you need to find time to realize your plan. If you have already plan well, then it's time to make it comes true. Motivate yourself well, so you can overcome any obstacle that may appear. There is no such waiting for the "right time". I believe you should make it instead..

I see, maybe you can wait till the kids go to school. then you will have lot of time in your hand. I wish you could start your ideas to execution soon because there is lot of competition out there. I like your idea of making some goodies and selling outside your home. thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day.

Hi jureathome! I felt the same.. After college, my priority was to have a stable career but after seven years in public education I had an inkling to make extra money to make ends meet. Here's what I did. Start small scale. One little step at a time, slowly but surely as they say. I did the extra work in my spare time. Think of something that would not eat up most of your time and will eventually drain you. Since you have kids, you could do it when they are at school or when they are sleeping. An hour a day would do. Set you priorities and act on it.. Faith and action goes a long way when combined. You are blessed!

Hello my friend z Ji, Well, as an old Lady I know that parenting most challanging subject these days for all working as well as house wives. But a syou have to bring up your children, you do some work from home only without leaving children at others mercy. May God bless You and have a great time

Reading your topic, it reminds me of the story of an American who wants to go to China. He really wants to go to China, visit the beautiful places therein, bought a lot of books about China, got a lot of different maps of China, planned a lot about his trip to China, but after the expected trip, was asked, "How's China?", he answered, "No, I haven't got there. I can't seem to go to the airport and board a plane to China."

A plan will remain a plan unless we started our first step. Well anyway, you are right to prioritize the children over any other work. There is a proper time for everything. You should make the most of your time to be with your children while they are still young. These moments are priceless.

Hi friend, we have lot of ways to make home based earnings, as you mentioned you have kids, you must concentrate with them. Mother's care is very important for kids, so focus your concentration with them, you can earn a lot with your work after raising them. All the best

Firstly I think,man can work till old and can work at any time,but the time to raise his/her kids and teach them especially in the early phase is limited,so I think now you should focus on your kids first,then if you do have spare time then you can find some online or part time job,I think you should find one job for you first and do it well,sometimes too much options means no option,then if you still find you have spare time and you can find other work,just something like that,and pls do not let you too tired,dear jureathome.

This happened to me before when I was still a Stay at home mom. So many things in mind but sometimes I get stuck on doing household chores or taking care of our son and preparing stuff. But that never really did get me anywhere. WHat I did is to plan my day ahead. There will be hours/specific time that the kid may be sleeping or playing and that is the time that you should do your own stuff (preferably online things) It will really help a lot in writing down the things that you want to do and try to do a schedule for all the stuff. Later on it will be easier to manage everything :) Good luck!
