Working from home opens up a whole range of distractions that you don't normally find in an office environment. It can be hard to avoid these distractions, I mean why would you rather be filling our reports than catching up on your favourite Netflix show.
Studies have shown setting yourself a daily goal or "mission" can massively improve your motivation, not only running a business from home, but in all areas of life.
The great thing about working for yourself, and more importantly working from home, is you can set your working hours. So when you first start your working day, give yourself a goal. for example, if you have an eBay business, Your goal might be "I will list 25 items before the end of the day".
Now sitting now and listing those 1 after the other is something that will get boring very quickly. You don't need to do it all in one go, you can have a break at 12, maybe catch up with some Netflix, do the housework. And finish the rest of in the evening. You can be flexible, but giving yourself that goal or "mission" is what will motivate you to get that done, there are many advantages to working from home, but motivation can be a negative for many people.
Do you guys/gals do something similar? Or do you tend to work continuously to get everything done?
