H-F-L-Team: 5 Obstacles to Working at HomeCopyright © Douglas Miller Hundred-Fold-Life
http://www.ClixGo.comWorking at home is no day at the beach. Most people understand that, but sometimes they do not understand the obstacles associated with it. Outlined here are the five obstacles to working at home. These obstacles will not stop a you from working at home but can lead to problems and mess up any chance for success, and fulfilling your Hundred-Fold-Life in the work at home environment.
Obstacle #1
Time Management There is a lot of freedom when working at home, so being able to manage time efficiently is very important. It’s easy to get distracted and let time get away. Also if you underestimate how long a task or job will take and not allot enough time for it you will fall behind. To keep time from being a obstacle you need to develop a schedule and be sure to schedule both work and free time. Then stick to it!
Obstacle #2
BoundariesOften family and friends do not take working at home seriously which will lead to problems with boundaries. When you tell someone ‘Hey I’m working’ but you’re at home, sometime they don’t understand and accept it. To help with boundary issues you should set up a work at home area that is specifically for work, and off limits. When in the work area set rules such as no personal phones calls or interruptions.
Obstacle #3
Too Much FreedomWorking at home is about freedom, but too much independents cause problems. We all need interaction with others. One of the benefits of working outside the home is interacting with other people. When you work at home it’s easy to withdraw into that world and overlook the outside world. The outside world is important, though. Networking is an important part of working at home success. If you work at home find some type of online community to network with so you can spend sometime with others.
Obstacle #4
Being Disconnected This happens with independence. Being disconnected means not staying informed. Working at home you need to stay informed and knowing what is going on in the industry in which you are working. You can reconnect by joining chamber of commerce and civic groups, and they are helpful to develop real personal contacts.
Obstacle #5
Little SupportAgain, often family and friends will not be supportive. It is common for them to think that you are not really working and not just goofing-off. To overcome this show them what your doing. You should show them what you are working on, how much money you make, your goals, and make it clear that this is a real job.
ConclusionThese five obstacle are going to be an issue for almost everyone who works at home. They are challenges that can be overcome, don’t let them lead to you giving up on your dream. Overcoming obstacles will just make you a better worker and teach you important skills you need to survive in the work at home environment, and ultimately living your Hundred-Fold-Life.
