Downsides of Working from Home

We all love freedom. Everyone loves freedom. One of the perks of working from home is freedom to do as you please. Working from home gives you the flexibility to work with your own rules and your own time. It saves you the hassles of daily commute and its attendant costs. In addition, it allows you quality time for your family and loved ones. Inspite of all these perks, it is always a struggle to remain organized while working from home.

Here are some of the downsides.

Man by nature is a social animal. He thrives very well through social connectivity and emotional support from other persons. By working from home in social isolation, he is deprived of all these. This can at times affect productivity.
While in isolation and without other persons to interact with, the only way to be motivated to work is by way of self-motivation. If you are incapable of motivating yourself to work, you become less productive. 


 
Working in isolation can be easily stressful because of the social deprivation. "Stress is the experience that happens when the demands in front of us outweigh the resources.” This is easily aggravated in isolation because there are no ready resources outside yourself alone to draw from more so when you are unable to self-motivate. This is one dreadful downside of working in isolation.

The freedom and flexibility of working from home in isolation can be a cost. Excessive freedom is easily abused and it becomes a downside to working in isolation. Just imagine if there is no fixed time for you to report to work and there are no bosses to worry about being late to work. In this kind of scenario, there is a tendency to sleep more and to laze around more without worrying your head about consequences. This affects productivity.

By nature many human beings don’t get to do anything unless they have to. That chips off from self-discipline. Many of us don't do things until we have to. The absolute flexibility that comes with Work From Home culture could hit your discipline. You are more likely to procrastinate by leaving things you can do now for later and it affects your productivity.

You go around these downsides and still remain productive.
 
The first step is to practice self-discipline. You can make your own strict schedule then practice self-discipline by sticking with it till your work is done. That is one great way to be your own effective commander by strictly following your own rules. That is how to avoid unwarranted anxiety, work-related stress and undue self-criticism. You can take care of your stress-induced mental health better by practicing meditation and resilience in some quiet moments of your isolation. If not, negative stress can psychologically hamper your productivity.


 

Why You Should Consider Trying Powerlining in SFI Business

In SFI business, "Powerlining" is based on building lines straight down, one person after another. Typically, you'll go VERY deep. Indeed, you may want to build your Powerlines hundreds of people deep!

Why would you want to build a line so deep, especially when direct compensation is essentially limited to a maximum of 12 generations? Simply put, it's all about LEVERAGE...and the power that leverage can generate for the generations you are paid directly on.


 
Here are the real benefits:

1. Maximum leverage. Persons you sign up into a Powerline can experience a substantial amount of downline activity, all of which can result in them becoming active so as to maximize their position. This of course can have a big, upward "domino effect." That is, if people lower in the line are becoming active (i.e. becoming Executive Affiliates), it's going to naturally motivate and incentivize persons higher in the line (closer to you) to also become active. For example, a new EA that pops up 50 levels below you in your Powerline could generate numerous additional EAs above as this "activity momentum" grows exponentially with each new upgrade to EA in the line.

2. You are the "Originator" for all sign-ups you place in your Powerlines. And per our 10/1/19 change in Direct Commission rules, you'll be earning 25% Direct Commissions on every one of your sign-ups whose sponsor (the person in the Powerline immediately above them) is not an EA. Yes, you can earn the Originator 25% commissions regardless of the generation placed...50th, 500th, 5000th, whatever; there's no limit!

3. You'll put to work for you what will quite possibly be SFI's most powerful and dynamic follow-up system we've ever built. For example, provided you're signing up at least one new affiliate a day into your Powerline, your sign-ups are going to be alerted DAILY to new activity under them and more. And these notifications will take different forms for maximum impact (emails, special Affiliate Center alerts, and more). Just advertise and bring in new people and our system will go to work for you!

4. Accelerated roll-ups. We appreciate that you don't want to place people 500 generations below you and have to wait for many months before they roll up closer to you (into your pay range). Hence, for Powerline sign-ups, we'll be using a special roll-up process. In short, any of your Powerline sign-ups who fail to go EA in their first 60 days will automatically roll up to the first upline EA in the Powerline and become one of their PSAs. The result can be a rapid compression and repositioning of most or many of your Powerline sign-ups to within 12-generations. From there, the standard Active Sponsor Policy can generate further roll-ups and compression over time.

5. You'll be able to use our awesome new Powerline GATEWAY. You can use any SFI Gateway with a Powerline key code to build Powerlines. However, if you want your prospects to know in advance that they'll be joining your Powerline (or you want to promote Powerline benefits to entice your prospects to join SFI), you can use the new Powerline Gateway we've created. Note that you'll have to be an EA, AND you'll have to have started a Powerline and be actively adding new sign-ups (a minimum of 5 per week) to use this special new Gateway.
