How To Stay Motivated When You Work From Home

How to stay MotivatedToday I wanted to talk about how to stay motivated when you work from home. First off I have to say, working from home is amazing. I am my own boss and I have the freedom to work when I want. There is however one downfall to all of this and that is staying motivated and getting everything done. There are so many distractions. There’s the housework and of course there’s Facebook, that all-consuming time waster. I have on occasion browsed Facebook for hours just because I could.

Today as I am writing my blog post, the sun is shining, and the church bell is chiming to let me know it’s 12:00. The thought of sitting inside writing all day is deflating. I can hear the school children, cheering each other on – it’s sports day today and I have promised my children I will come across to the football field to watch them at lunch time. It is on days like this that I hate the fact that I have to work. I know I work for myself and can take the time off, but I just seem to be so busy lately.  It happens every now and again and I feel it building, the resentment, the boredom, and the longing to be working on my own writing. Today though I have to put those feelings aside and catch up on the work that pays my bills.
