From Twitter, I find this post about the leap into self employment:
Now I’ve worked from home before as most of my professional career over the last eight years has been in the online realm, which leaves these options pretty open. However, many people who work from anywhere often have a hard time getting motivated or finding a good place to get out and be inspired to put their nose to that grindstone and crank out their work.
It’s easy to go into an office 8 hours a day. It’s much, much more difficult to not have somewhere to go to work because you are already there when you wake up.
Now that I can reach my office email from home and my home email from the office, the distinction is becoming a blur. (I don’t sleep well in either place –grin)
Maybe home workers need to do as President Reagan did– strictly divide the workplace from the residential rooms and always wear a suit in the office area.
