Do you have yourself a Home Based Business? Do you have a separate room set up for your office? Is it quiet, without any distractions?
I was reading something last night that really hit home with me! So, as much as I hate to admit it! I AM SO GUILTY of this one.
The article was actually about just taking 5 minutes of your time each morning, before you start getting to work on your home based business and straighten something out in your office or life. It could be anything that you think would help you to get yourself more organized, maybe clean off your desk, file some papers, it could be just about anything.
Then she went on and talked about looking around and finding the things that you were not happy about and change them. If you had a mess to get rid of it, if you didn't like the way things were, to change them.
This Really Hit Home With ME.
Well, I went out today and bought myself a new desk and a nice chair. You see I do have a computer desk, with my computer and printer on it, that's about all that I can do on it. It is more of a Hum- How would you say? Yes piece of decorative furniture!
Also it is located in my kitchen. I actually have an open concept in my home, the living room is attached. Is that how you would say it? Yes I guess so - I have access to everything right from that point. The fridge, the stove, the sink, the TV, etc. I actually had my laptop sitting on my counter, with my router box right next to it. We would trip on the cords daily. Truthfully!
Are you getting what I am saying here? Yes, this did work, for a while anyways; until I saw a dirty dish, noticed my plants needed a drink or a suddenly thought I needed a snack. Everything was real convenient; I had a lot of distractions.
Well I did find a few strong boys to carry this big old desk and set it up in the basement. I now have myself an office to work my home based business. Yep, its real nice & quiet too. I actually have got more done in the last 3 hours then I have in 2 full days!!! Wow! I am here to tell you guys!!! Get yourself a space you can call your own to work on your Home Based Business! You will find yourself getting more things accomplished by simply getting things in order.
I just don't let those little things bother me, so I didn't think it was a big deal. But now that I have set up my own office, I realize it is a big deal.
If you are just getting started in a home based business opportunity, or if you have one already and you don't have an office set up, do this today! Everyone tells you this is the first step to take, but how many people actually do it? I didn't, I thought that I had my desk right next to me and that was alright!
NO It wasn't, Believe me you will get more done and become successful so much faster if you start working your Home Based Business the right way.
Remember, set up a schedule and keep to it, don't forget to schedule you breaks, this is important. You now have a plan, so stick to it and soon you will see your Home Based Business Boom!
