WORK FROM HOME PITFALLS

     Many folks have the desire to work for themselves. Some of the folks who try will fail, not because they can't but because they fall into a variety of traps.  

Dedication

     When you start working from home it is very easy to fall into bad habits.  There always seems to be SOMETHING else that you need to be doing.  Suddenly you have fallen behind on making new products or posting blog posts and your page views and revenues fall off or disappear.  Before you realize it, you have lost your momentum and alienated your followers.  

Boss I need the day off to.......

     If you are working for someone else you wouldn't ask for the day off to wash your car or do your laundry.  If you did that on a regular basis you wouldn't have a job.  Treat your work from home business the same way.  I found in the beginning that setting regular work times and sticking to them kept me on track.  I now can juggle the "work" to fit the rest of my schedule so that I deliver the posts to my blogs on a regular basis and have time to promote my blogs with social media.
