Golden Rules For Working From Home
SitePoint:
1. Set your working day hours and stick to them – Of course there will always be times when you will need to work longer hours to meet some deadline or other, but, for all other times – stick to the hours you set. Let your family and friends know that within those hours you would prefer not to be disturbed.
2. Delineate your office area – Hide/cover you work area when you are not working. It is important to be able to walk away from your work area and not feel the pressure to just go back and finish this or that. It maybe that you close the door on your home office or if you have a desk in one of your main rooms – cover it with a sheet at the end of the day to visually show you are not at work.
3. Keep your boss/client up to date on what you are doing – Check in with them regularly, whether this be by instant message, email, phone or whatever. It is possible to have a work/life balance, it all boils down to communication and discipline. Let people know what you are trying to achieve and when you are trying to achieve it and have the discipline to follow the hours you set. TTFN.
