Introduction

Although educational researches have fundamental role in trimming and improving the education system difficulties, education decision-makers are in doubt about research position and role in compiling the policies and carrying these policies through. This is while roughly one thousand researches are conducted yearly in various levels of the research centers of the ministry of education across the country (The Research Councils of Provinces) and in a national level (The Education Research Center and the Research Centers of Vice-Minister of Ministry of Education). Despite all this, the question still remains, “Why is it that the difficulties and problems with the Education system are still not reduced even with the existence of all these conducted researches?” Most intellects believe that the answer should be seeked in the applicability of the research findings and its obstacles in the ministry.

The study findings by Lampert (1985), Wiresma (1991), and Borg and Gall (1996) have shown that teaching research in the education system and especially to teachers, is among the effective elements in applying the research findings through the learning-teaching process and in the class-room. The effective elements on applying educational researches are emphasized differently by different experts: Willinsky (2001) stresses having a applied plan in the research section of the Education system. Newer (2002) stresses on culture-building and setting up a scientific and research information system. Laatter (2004) considers three things with this regard: expansion and teaching of scientific researches, creating positive attitude in order to utilize scientific findings in education, and finally stabilization of the information system for educational researches and contact between researchers, universities, and the education system. Last but not least, Nicebet (2005) has recognized the effective elements to be in the two fields of 1. vocational expansion and teachers training in research methodology and research management expansion, and 2. governmental financial support for educational researches. Also Raid (2005) has pointed out 16 elements in applying educational researches, the most important of which include: The Education Systems collaboration with universities and research centers, conducting research courses for teachers, including lessons in the school curriculum for becoming familiar with research methodology and providing easy-access conditions for the Education system members to the researches and publications.

A collection of researches and considerable articles have also investigated solutions and the obstacles for utilizing education research findings in the country. Here we point to the most important ones:

One of the effective solutions in utilizing research-findings for decision-makings and educational plannings is research-management and structure-modification of the research-system of the Ministry of Education. This is the belief seen in the works of the following researchers: Mehrm-Mohammadi (1991, 1998), Mansouri (1991, 1994), Saadati (1998), Bakhshi (2003), Roumiani (2003), Mohammadi (2004), and Alaghe-mandan (2002).

The findings of these researches, and the studies by Bazargan (1993, 2001), Nami (1998), Saadati (1998), Matin (1990), and Hasan-Zadeh (2003) have shown that the establishment and expansion of the research information system in the ministry of Education and in the provinces are effective elements in utilizing research findings in the Education system.

Also, the results of researches by Saadati (1998), Nami (1998), Shariat-Zadeh (2001), Reshad-manesh (2001), Roumian (2003), Bakhshi (2003), and Mohammadi (2003) have shown that the expansion of research culture, and being research-centered, and research-report

Home business is a comfortable way to earn incomes because it operates in the home business owner’s house. There is no traffic jam to go to work, no more get scolded by the boss, work at home whenever the home business owner like and no matter he is inside his house or during vacation in Hawaii. Many people know about the good features of operating a home business and want to start a home business.

Everyone is possible to run a home business at home but preparation is needed to success in the home business. Home business beginners must prepare with a will of success, persistency, positive attitude, a good learner and cooperative.  Many successful home business owners are occupied with all the listed above.

First of all, successful home business owners are ordinary people like all of us but they occupied something more which is a strong will to success. A strong will to success is very important in completing any task, achieving any goal or doing anything. All successful home business owners had gone through hard time by maintain the strong will to success. When encounter a hard time, the power of the will to success will determine the success of failure of the home business owner. If the business owner has a weak will to success, he may end up with closing the home business. This is pity because he may see the result after next month if he has a strong will to success and continue his journey of home business.

Secondly, a successful home business owner is very persistence in running a home business. He will constantly check the web page he owned; check the sales, traffics and advertisements to ensure everything is working. Rom is not built in a night, so home businesses need a period of time to see the result. Only those works persistently without giving up will be able to see the success. Many people tried to start a home business but failed because they do not want to contribute persistently in home business. They work a little and not persistent to advertise but hoping to get a lot of sales. After two months they see no results and just close the business. Every business needs time and effort to get a long term and significant result.

Besides that, positive attitudes are necessary for a positive growth of business. A home business owner which inhabited with positive attitudes will face the problem positively, seeking high and low for the best solution to solve the question. When encounter with problems, those without positive attitude will close the business, blame the market, blame the workers, blame everyone but not looking for a suitable solution. Positive attitude is needed to run a home business because we definitely will face some problems such as family, money, time management, customers and the sales problems.

Next, every successful people are good learners. Successful home business owners are always ready to learn the new techniques in business, learn from the mistakes, and learn the business ethics. Those who do not learn will not be able to follow up with the changes of global trends and lose to the good learners. We are learning since we are infants and we need to keep learning till the last breath.

A successful business owner is able to cooperate with other people very well.  Home business can operate alone but it may need a lot of works. If work with others can leverage the time and effort to achieve the same or even better result. A home business owner who not very well in article marketing may cooperate with ghost writers to produce quality articles to be published. Home business owner who act as lonely Rambo is definitely will achieve success with a longer time and more effort than those cooperate with other.

Budget is a must to start a home business. There is no free lunch in the world, so there is no business without any form of investments. Money is the major form of investment but if without a budget, business owners may overspend. Overspend may cause difficulty in living of the business owner before he can earn any money. A budget is to allow the home business owner to invest in home business without affecting his daily life.

A home business owner wills success in his home business if he prepare well before starting any type of home business. Without those preparations, there will be a harder time for a beginner to start his home business because he may stop when facing certain problems. Prepare well will lead to easy success in home business.
