How to motivate yourself to work from home!

Working from home is great. There is no two ways about it, getting up late having a nice breakfast, sitting in a comfy chair in your pants and cracking on with the days graft.

The problem lies when it comes to doing the work, a lot of people struggle to stay motivated at home because of constant distractions that simple don't occur in an office environment.

There is, fortunately, a few things you can do to help you stay on top of things when working from home:

1. Get dressed

Getting dressed will make you feel like your going to work, rather than getting ready to sit in bed and watch box sets all day. It will give you purpose and motivation to get some work done. 

2. Have a workspace 

If you've got a spareroom you can transform into an office, great, if not just a desk will do, as long as it is solely for work. Having this space purely for working will cut out some of the distractions that occur when you're just sitting in the kitchen or on the sofa. 

3. Switch your personal mobile off

Smart phones are awesome, they have revolutionised the way we do business. They are however, a massive distraction, you cannot get work done if every two minutes you are getting notifications from Twitter, Facebook, Candy Smash or whatever else! Switch them off to save the distraction or if you need it for business, switch the notifications for these apps off!

So that should help you out a bit when you're working from home. I hope you've enjoyed this post take a flick through the other posts and share them with your friends! you can get to me on Twitter @fancyservices
