Starting a home based business gives you all the power and freedom to go with your business as you choose to. I personally, work when I choose. I work my own hours and if I want to take a day off I don't need to phone the boss.

2. Choose Your Own Business - Having the freedom to do what you want also includes you being able to choose what type of home based business you would like to start. While you have the power to choose anything you want, obviously you do want to pick a business that has potential. Try and start a home business that you are interested in and also has appeal from society.

3. Create Your Own Schedule - When you start your home based business, you have the power of creating your schedule.

However, you can now take those family vacations whenever you want, and you can stay longer if you want as well.

4. Less Stress - Everything that has been mentioned thus far seems to be stress free, and that is one of the biggest advantages people find with starting a work from home business. You may encounter stress getting the business going since you are the boss, the marketer, the writer, and salesman. However, you can go at your own pace and set your own deadlines, which takes a great load of stress off of your back.

5. No Commuting or Work Uniforms - Although this may seem irrelevant, the ability to wake up and be at your job right away eliminates some of the stress as well. You can wear whatever attire you choose to and you don't have to worry about dealing with traffic to get to work.

6. Tax Breaks - On the business part, you will enjoy many tax advantages with starting a home based business. You now can deduct your home, business vacations, cars and business meals. Any losses that you incur can be tax deductible making tax season a lot less stressful. ALWAYS consult your accountant first though before taking any decisions in this area.
