How to Make Working from Home Work for You

Posted on May 12, 2012 by admin

Working from home is a situation many people find themselves in, for myriad reasons. Now, with the advent of video conferencing and super-fast broadband, working from home has never been so easy or so popular.

However one of the biggest problems people face when working from home is differentiating between work and home life. When working in an office, of course, the distinction is obvious: the office is for work and home is for relaxing. When these two locations blur though, people can often find themselves lazing at work or unable to distance themselves from the job once five o’clock comes.

So what ways are there of breaking the link between home and work; establishing a clean-cut difference between the two?

Location
One big factor in differentiating home from work is the location in which you spend your working day. Doing your job in the living room will only end up establishing links in your mind, that merges the two. Instead, find a different location where you won’t spend much time – if any – outside of working hours. Spare bedrooms and garden offices are good for this, as they create a place to work that does not infringe too much on the places in the home you tend to do most living.

Atmosphere
Again, this is about stopping yourself from creating links in your mind or bringing too many creature comforts into the working environment. For example, having the TV on is a bad idea as it not only distracts you, but can make for a day where you go from sunrise to sunset without the thing being switched off.

If you like to work along to music, play the radio instead of CDs or tune in a different station to that which you listen to out of hours. Some of the songs may cross over but at least there’s the trigger there to do work as opposed to just settle down.

Ensuring you have a healthy work-life balance when you operate at home is key to keeping a strong work ethic and a happy lifestyle. All it takes is a little planning and a modicum of forethought. Then you can just get on with your work and put it firmly behind you come 5 o’clock.
