Dear Forum:

In our continuing mission to explore strange new products, to seek out new niches and new specialty items, to boldly create what no one has created before…

What are you looking for on the internet? What kind of products are you seeking these days? What is the greatest challenge that you seek a solution to?

Thanks--Easy Success!

I've been seeking adorable baby girl clothes. LOL. It's addictive! :rolleyes:

Potty training is currently the biggest challenge in this house. More specifically, making the transition from the little potty to the big potty. Even though we have one of those seats that is supposed to make the big potty less scary, it isn't working for us. I'm convinced that my two year old will be sitting on the little potty until she's twelve. I think someone should make a video (like the Elmo ones - something kids like) showing that the big potty isn't scary. I mean, Elmo got her to brush her teeth and take a bath - maybe he'd have better luck getting her to ditch the potty chair. :rolleyes:

Trying to get my husbands clothes ironed. Seriously. It is a big thing between us. I spend way too much time on the internet scrapbooking. All he wants are his clothes to be ironed.

My biggest challenge right now is that it is summer and my children are home and I can't seem to find time to work on my business. I have to redo my schedule but it is tough.

Right now my biggest challenge is managing everything: working a full time job, trying to start my work at home business and take care of the family. My husband is very supportive and helps with housework but I still find myself working on the omputer until the wee hours of the morning!

Lori,
I found this site as I was searching myspace and thought about your post. The concept is really cute. The owner has taken her child's baby talk and put definitions to it based on the baby'e everday needs. Check it out. www.babyslanguage.com.

I sure will!

[eapoosmama]

my biggest challange currently is being a single mom to a 17 year old daughter full of rebellion.

Lori -- depending on what your looking for, for crafted wahm and come organics you can peek at www.yinia.com - Anna does some cute things for girls and also www.hyenacart.com has about 600+ stores of things some cute little girls stuff can be found.

Mary Beth,

One of my daughters is 17. Post away any time, email me, private message me. I'm happy to share what does and does not work for me.

I hear that girls are much harder to raise than boys. I have a 10 year old boy and I don't really have much trouble with him (yet!) I hear stories from a few women about their daughters and I just thank the Lord for my son. I wish I could give you some advise, but unless someone is in your shoes, I don't think that's possible. I wish you much luck with your daughter and just be patient I guess :eh: You will be okay, have faith and you will come out of it just fine. Sorry, I can't be of more help.

Hi Everyone,

I'm new as of today, I have introduced myself in one of the other threads, single mom, 2 teenagers, work full time and in process of opening my own virtual assisting business.

My greatest challenge, which is driving me crazy..........is writing a Business Plan......I've been researching on how to...but I think I'm just going to make it easy on myself and write it in a very simple format to inspire me and then go back to it at a later date....I need to stop losing sleep over it :eek:

Have a great day everyone!

[Audrey]

Deb,

If you are seeking a loan, then a detailed business plan is a must. If the plan is for you, so that you know where you're going then simple is great.

What I find very common is that many folks are uncertain on how to market. So that's where I pesonally suggest investing time in your plan. Develop a marketing plan/strategy and know exactly how you will reach your target market.

[gems]

Hi Audrey,

Thanks for responding, and thankyou for the welcome in the thread where I introduced myself.

No its not for a loan of any kind, only to keep myself on track as you mentioned. So the simple will work for now, I can always go back to it and change things as I get more organized.

Thanks for the advice on the target market and marketing, I know that will also be a challenge to me as I'll have to come out of my comfort zone a little bit to market the business.

I've been reading alot about the virtual assisting industry and plan on taking a training course in October before I officially open my doors, its all very exciting!

My biggest challenge is keeping it all together......working FT, taking care of my 3 kids and getting my fledgling internet business off to a great start! I have a husband but he works 2nd shift and I work 1st shift, so I feel like a single parent!!

At the moment my greatest challenge is trying to eat healthy. Which may sound silly but, the food we eat these days is so over processed that nothing is actually good for you.

Even salads these days are getting non-healthy foods added into them.

Grrrr.

Liz,

I love to cook....so I find it a challenge too. I've met folks over the years who say "oh I forgot to each lunch". Hmm I think I've forgotten once in my 40 something years LOL. I've met folks who say "nope I don't get hungry between my 12 noon lunch and my 8pm dinner". Hmm I eat about 1pm and by 5pm I'm famished LOL.

My downfall is carbs. I love bread and pasta and .....

I normally don't really buy any products online except for beauty products like make-up, and jewelry.

My biggest challenge is finding balance between my business and home-making.
It's like all or nothing in both areas for me. When I get going on my business, I just can't get into home-making. When I fixing up the house, working in the garden and cooking nice meals, I don't want to do the business.

[Audrey]

Would a schedule help? Switching gears is not easy for everyone. I know I have to do certain tasks/chores each day and so I allow myself some time to do what needs to be done.

My son has a speech disorder called Apraxia and is getting speech therapy 3 times a week. It saddens me so much to see him struggle to communicate. His behavior is greatly affected by it, he gets frustrated easily and is also hyperactive. Every day is exhausting in my house!

[Glamgurl36]

picking up after my husband..he thinks the living room is our closet :eek: it's like having another child...but i love him deeply

[manjula07]

My biggest challenge will be to give my Wards good quality education. It is the only asset that can be taken back by any law enforcers
