My other 2 businesses chug along nicely providing the bread and butter income for the basics. As much as I miss the regular income sometimes I don't miss the lack of freedom and the stress of having to be somewhere I don't want to be. My other problem about working from home is that any mess, dishes, or odd job is in my face. There are days I have to admit when the procrastination meter is running high that the house ends up looking brilliant but no work gets done. Mind you the next day there are no excuses and I feel clear to focus. But discipline is essential, at least until you get things up and running. Getting your own business up and going can be a bit like getting a truck moving. Have you ever seen a big tip truck, a digger in the back and a trailer hooked up with a bobcat or some other heavy machinery. The truck gets stopped at a red light at the bottom of the hill, not a huge hill and not a really steep hill. But a slow steady climb anyway. Well the light turns green and it seems at first that the truck isn't even moving, but slowly it inches forward, then the driver changes gears, it seems to stop, it jerks forward a little then starts it's slow, very slow climb up the hill. As you watch is gathers momentum as it climbs higher and higher, not moving quickly but it is moving slightly faster by the time it reaches the top of the hill. Then it's fine, doesn't matter if it's a downhill slope on the other side or the road goes out straight the truck is off and running at the speed limit. Well at this point I'm about 3/4 of the way up the hill and feeling strong. It's a great feeling and there is no way I would ever work as an employee again. http://www.LynsEcoSolutions.com Article Source: [http://EzineArticles.com/?Is-It-Easy-Working-From-Home?&id=5058386] Is It Easy Working From Home?
Is It Easy Working From Home?
I've been totally working from home for the past 9 months, it has gone very quickly and it has been hard at times. I now have my own room/office which makes it so much easier. My main problem is the distractions of family, my daughters and grandchildren. Also one of my businesses is a bit spasmodic, regular clients that have irregular days. So I can get myself all organised to do certain things the next day but then have to rearrange my plans. I have just sold that business however so am looking forward to much more of an organised timetable, with still plenty of flexible time for my family. Another problem about working from home, is the inconsistent income. It takes a while to get into the swing of not getting a certain sum of money every week, fortnight or month. Gradually over time it does build up, and something I have just started is going to provide residual income in ever increasing amounts over time. Without putting in extra work and hours.My other 2 businesses chug along nicely providing the bread and butter income for the basics.
