1. Establish Some Targets
It will not matter what type of business you are doing, if you set yourself various targets, you have something to labor towards.
For me, taking part in an article writing challenge really started me off article writing so I set the aim of finishing the assignment. This was a assignment that I knew I needed to get involved with and had tried hard to start writing regularly, but when I saw the challenge to write and circulate 100 articles in 100 days I determined to have a go at it. It really inspired me to work hard, and I fulfilled the challenge in less than half the time, plus ended up almost addicted to the process, which is wonderful. I now write a few articles every day, which is a real business benefit.
2. Take A Break
Working from home is not all about sitting down at the PC at 8:00 in the morning and working through to midnight. Find something in the daily routine that will break up the hours of working. For me, it is going out for a run or a bicycle ride.
On a larger scale, allocate some time each week for a time out. I have a regular lunchtime trip out with my wife each week, something we may possibly not do in full time employment. Plus on another day we pop down to the driving range and hit some balls. This is both excellent time together, on our own, and a high point of the end of the week that I can look forward to.
3. Write Up Targets
Long term, write up what you want to attain. Maybe you want more customers, more sales, a regular amount of article writing. Write this up as a number of form of chart and then start marking off your progress. I always find that once I can get ahead of a objective I love the feeling of over achieving it and it motivates me to keep ahead. You also then achieve the goals that you have set along the way.
4. Create A task Collection
Especially when work gets busy, this one focuses me on what needs to be done and getting it all done. I will write down a collection of jobs that I need to do and then look through the collection. Which are the smallest jobs? Which can be completed quickly and easily, without much time away from the rest? Jump between these jobs and get as loads of small tasks out of the way as quickly as possible. It is wonderful fun to see the list getting crossed out. Doing this, I will even write up small tasks that I know I will get done in minutes, just so that I get to cross them off.
If you have too much work to do this can be a really good inspiration to focus on what needs to be completed and prioritise to get people off your back the quickest.
