| EMPATHY, not Internet Traffic - key to home based business success?
Having EMPATHY, as we define it, could be your secret to your
home based business success. You were either born with it or you
were not. If you were born with it, you will never loose it. If
you were not born with it, you can become more empathetic, but
not like a person with the Natural Talent of EMPATHY. Mary Kay,
of Mary Kay Cosmetics, has the Natural Talent of EMPATHY and she
did just that. Yes, Mary Kay did business plans, cash flow
projections, marketing analysis, etc. Although these are needed
to be successful, they can be hired or learned from courses,
workshops or books. Mary Kay’s EMPATHY cannot be learned from
courses. It is what gave her the competitive edge.
EMPATHY, as we define it, is a Natural Talent. Building your
work at home business around your Natural Talents is your key to
success. Most people, who work at home, have little sense of
their Talents, much less how to build a business around them.
They are masters at knowing their weaknesses. They will develop
Internet traffic generation systems, work to get a high Page
Rank, and hire Search Engine Optimizers, while their Natural
Talents lie dormant and neglected.
This is the second in a series of articles describing the 34
Natural Talents that can make you successful when you work at
home. Your Talents are what give you the “edge” in the market
place. The purpose of this article is to help the people working
at home identify their Talents and what to do with them, once
they are identified.
First, examine, do you have EMPATHY as we define it? EMPATHY
defined is: “A person that loves to relate. They can sense the
emotions of those around them. They feel what others are feeling
as though they were their own feelings. Intuitively, they are
able to see through the other person’s eyes and share their
perspective. They do not necessarily agree with each person’s
perspective. They do not necessarily feel pity for each person’s
predicament. That would be sympathy, not empathy. They do not
necessarily condone the choices each person makes, but they do
understand. They hear the unvoiced questions. They anticipate
needs. When others cannot find the words, they seem to find the
right words and the right tone. They help people find the right
phrases to express their feelings. They help others give voice
to their emotional life.
A person with EMPATHY can go into a home based business such as
selling ebooks, and be successful, however, it is much easier
and a lot more fulfilling for someone with EMPATHY if they go
into a business that requires a lot of personal contact and
customer service.
A 20-year study conducted tracked 1,500 people who set out to
become wealthy. Of these people, 1245 decided to go into a line
of work that they didn't particularly enjoy, (selling ebooks?)
but which promised a lot of money. The other 255 did what they
loved (Natural Talent?) hoping the money would follow. 100 of
the 255 who did what they loved eventually became millionaires.
Only 1 person in the 1245 who pursued the money became a
millionaire.
EMPATHY is only one of the thirty-four Natural Talents that have
been identified by the Gallup organization. The Gallup
organization, of the Gallup Poll fame, interviewed 2 million
successful people, spent millions of dollars and recorded the
results for 25 years to identify these Natural 34 Talents.
For the home based business owner that wants more information
about their specific Natural Talents, Tax Moms is sponsoring a
FREE 9-week Experience called the “Be Financially Free with
Ninergy – the Experience. The purpose of the Experience is to
help people, which work at home, identify which of the 34
Natural Talents they possess and how to develop them.
The 9-week live webcast-conference is provided free and does not
promote any book, product, franchise, service, or home based
business. At the end of 9-weeks the participants will understand
how their “Natural Talents” can cause their failure or lead to
their success. It is a person’s lack of understanding of their
“Natural Talent,” not the product; search engines, business
plan, or capitalization is the reason for business failure. It
is now their choice.
Registration is limited to 500. There is no cost to participate
in any part of the Experience. The first part of the Experience
arrives on July 4, 2005, Your Financial Independence Day.
