Working from home means working round my family and fitting it in when I can, right?? The answer is Nada, negative, nein, non, a big fat NO. To make your work from home business a success you need to be focused and committed. Within that commitment, there has to be organisation. You need to organise your time and schedule your day so that you can actually be productive. The family members need to understand when your work time is and when your family time is. Treat this work from home thing like a business and it will pay dividends, treat it like a hobby then don't be surprised if you make 'jack'.
It is super important to set up strategies for success for your work from home business. Your family have to understand you are doing this for them, you are investing your time to provide for them, so you can get them the things they want. Use that little, but very powerful concept, to your advantage and give them an ethical bribe.
'Hey son, when I am working, which will be between this time and this, I need to concentrate, so I would really appreciate it if you didn't disturb me or get into arguments with your older brother that I then need to sort out for you. Allow me to focus on this business and from my next pay check from this business I will get you that .... you wanted'.
'Hey wife, you may not see me much because I am working on this business but support me on this and I will get you those shoes/handbag/clothes/necklace you wanted as a thank you pressie'.
Having a working schedule will be paramount to your success. For example when I started my simple day plan was:
job 9-5
Family time 5-730
Weight training 730-8
Work from home business 8-1030.
Having specific slots helped me stay focused and productive.
In my family time I made a point not to check any emails or work related stuff. That was my family time!! You have to make the clear distinctions and stick to it. Let your family know so they can help support you. So if it was 815 and my kids saw me watching the news they would like 'dad shouldn't you be working? Remember that bike you said you were going to get me? Come on dad get working.'
You can determine a free day so that monotony and routine is not allowed to sabotage any creativity. However, the time frames allotted for accomplishing your goals and objectives for each day is critical. It cannot be overemphasized in the grand scheme of things because before you know it, you get backed up in every area, from the housework to the work projects.
