How to Set Real Work Hours for Your At-Home Business

It’s exciting and freeing to run your own business. You get to set your own rules and set your own work hours. You get to decide what you sell and when you sell it. You get to determine what your income is – and the sky’s the limit.

However, as anyone who owns their own business and works from home will tell you, the reality is that it’s easy to fall into the trap of working all the time. It’s not as if you just login for 15 minutes a day and then you’re done. It’s not as if you get to do whatever you want to do just because you don’t have a boss breathing down your neck.

Yes, you get to work from home. Yes, you get to work in your PJs if you want to. Yes, you can travel the world and work wherever you want to and earn an income doing it. It’s a fantastic lifestyle and it’s highly recommended by just about anyone who’s earning a full-time income this way.

Break It Down

Learn to Manage Your Time

It’s difficult to be successful if you always procrastinate and can’t seem to get large projects done in a reasonable amount of time. Big projects can certainly be intimidating, and we’ve all been there… but, you can’t do the bare minimum and expect to succeed beyond your wildest dreams.

With that said, you certainly don’t have to work all day, every day either. We all have 24 hours in a day. How is it that someone with the same 24 hours you have is dramatically more successful than you are? It’s not because they’ve magically invented more time. It’s because they use their time better. In fact, they likely get a lot more done than you in a much shorter amount of time— leaving them space to sip margaritas on the beach, as is the common image of the wealthy.

If you want to become more successful, you need to get much better at managing your time. Part of this comes from knowing where you’re going. It’s important to plan things out. That’s right—actually create a business plan. Set solid, specific, measurable goals. Create a plan for how you’re going to get there.

Beating Procrastination

Make a To-Do List

This might seem like a very obvious time management trick. Maybe you already successfully make to-do lists all the time. But, many people do not. If they do, then they often do so inefficiently.

If you don’t tend to make a to-do list every day, think about your reason why. How do you know what you should do each day? Maybe you just have all your tasks swirling around in your head. If that’s the case, then you’re setting yourself up for failure right off the bat.

You need to get your to-do list action items out of your head and down on paper. If you have too much swirling around in your head, then you won’t know what to do first, and you’ll constantly be worrying that you’ve forgotten something (and maybe you will have). It’s exhausting to have everything you need to do taking up your brain-space every second of the day. Get it down on paper instead, and you’ll probably feel instant relief.
