The days when anyone who wanted to start a business had to rent out an office are well and truly over. Nowadays even people who still generally work in the traditional office environment will occasionally find themselves working from home or while on the road. This kind of flexibility is very liberating, though it also brings up the challenge of how to remain productive in these unusual settings.
One good tip when working from home is to have a particular place designated as your work space and to have it where you also have a door that is able to be closed so as to prevent distractions. Another good tip is to take a break when you are entitled to one – when its lunchtime go and have lunch somewhere else, even if it just a different room in your house, rather than have it in your work space. Everyone needs time to regroup and have a break, and home workers are no different.
