Don’t Forget to Use Your Freedom

by Christopher D. Anderson on November 13, 2009

When you work from home, you have the free­dom to run your sched­ule the way you would like. If you want to work in the morn­ings go for it. Work bet­ter at night? Do it. Switch around some­times. See what hap­pens. Rearrange your sched­ule and do some­thing entirely dif­fer­ent. Do what you need to do for yourself.

Even start­ing out you have the choice. When you first start mar­ket­ing you are very busy, but you still have that choice. Feel like you need a break go for it!

But just remem­ber that you earn by how much you work. You won’t make as much work­ing a half an hour each day com­pared to work­ing 2 hours or 6 hours. Work­ing from home takes a lot of self dis­ci­pline and organization.

I’m not say­ing that you need to work tire­lessly for hours on end. On the con­trary, it’s not unusual to work part time at first. Say 3 or 4 hours a day.

My point is this: We have the free­dom to do things the way we want. We can run our own sched­ules and decide when we work and when we play. It’s easy to sway one way or the other though. Find a bal­ance. Remem­ber to use your free­dom and don’t for­get that you have it.

Find your­self work­ing too much? Set aside some time for you to do some­thing else. Not get­ting enough done? Maybe you should take a piece of that play time and use it for work.

Find a bal­ance and your pro­duc­tiv­ity will be much more efficient.

Have a great week­end

I so need to hear this! I for­get that I actu­ally do have free­dom. I always chain myself to the desk, and really a lit­tle bit of free­dom is just what I need to make me feel more pro­duc­tive again.
