Working from Home: Planning A Schedule
When you set out to work from home, it probably seems like you are going to work at your convenience. To some of your friends, it might seem like a luxury to sleep a bit longer and to start work in your pj or better yet, get the kids off to school and go back to bed.
It is very nice indeed to not be tied down to a fixed schedule or to have to decide things based upon what your superior says you need to do. It’s also nice to be able to get work done in advance and take a few days off of work without having to worry about what your boss thinks. However, finding time to get your work done can actually end up presenting a problem for you if you don’t have discipline.
When you start to work from home, there are things that need to be done at home and you find yourself needing to do them. There are errands to be run that you never had time to do before you started to work from home and there are things that you are trying to get finished that you think you can put work aside in order to do. You might find that its hard to find the time to work from home, because suddenly there is a lot more to do than you thought there was.
In order to make sure that you are getting your work done, a schedule is something that is going to benefit you. You can still choose when you want to work, just make sure that you block out enough time to get your daily work done, and then make that time of each day your actual work time. Get up early, do your morning exercise, take your phentermine if you need to. Unplug the phone and try not to surf the web. Also, turn off the television and actually be at work. Even if you are in the comfort of your own home, if you can do something that makes it feel like working at home is not any inferior compared to those climbing the corporate ladder.
