Make Working From Home… Work!

November 24, 2008 by Rich Whittle | 4 Comments


Hack Your Day:

I see a lot of misconceptions about working from home. Many people think that what happens is we barely make ends meet, but it’s ok because we can get up at 11:00, put in a few hours of work, then spend the day doing whatever we want.

For most people who work at home I guarantee you that they work more than 8 hours a day and it is much harder than it looks. I’ll post about this separately, but for now, here are 3 good tips to make working from home actually work for you.

Create a work routine
This may be an essential factor for success, so despite the relative freedom you have, I suggest settling into some routine or another.

The net will still be here tomorrow
A lot of people, especially bloggers think they have to be alert at all times.

Find the tools for your work
Whatever you’re doing there are tools to do it better. Learn some keyboard shortcuts, look through the program options, perhaps there’s something you can use, read documentation and so on. If you learn 2 new things every week, that’s 104 tricks per year.

    Being working at home, I see to it that everything is smoothly in proper places. Even if I’m working at home, I still have a working time schedule. This wont makes any conflicts on my part.
    Just manage your time wisely and everything is under control!

    I agree…working from home is just as tough as working outside the home if not tougher. with being a new mom of a 5 month old baby and working from home, i work harder now then i did when i worked in an office! while your home you try to over compensate for the fact you work at home, so you try to take care of the house, the kids, errands, animals and your regular job all at one all day and night long!

    Adopting the working culture at home just like work at the office will defenitely give good results as you opine. Thanks for an innovative idea.

    It took me awhile but I now have a good working routine. It helps to set daily goals and make sure that it gets done that day. I think once you have that mindset that you’re at work (only at home) then it really makes a difference how you approach the whole working from home thing.
