subject: Some Tips That Online Home Based Business Owners Can Ignore [print this page] At times it seems like every second person involved in an online based home business has a tip to make working from home on the internet simpler and more successful. The truth of the matter though is that some of these tips can be counter-productive as they make working from home exactly like working in a corporate office environment.
Here are a few work from home tips that you can totally ignore.
1. Begin your day at the same time as you would in a 9-5 job!
Why would you want to do this? One of the greatest joys of working from home online is that you can set your own hours. If you are not a morning person, and there are many people who are not, then chances are that you will have more energy and be more productive later in the day. So if this describes you, then don't feel bad about waking up later and working in the late afternoon and into the evening. Rather do your best work at a time that you are at your peak.
The beauty of the internet is that it works 24/7 so just set a schedule that suits you best, as long as it is one that you can follow then it is the correct one for you. In fact if you work based on your body's natural cycle you will achieve far more and be more successful.
2. Get Dressed the Same Way You Would if you were Going to Work.
Why? I know that some people believe that getting all dressed up puts you in to working mode, but some of the most successful and productive people work at home in their pajamas and achieve just as much if not more than the business people in their smart suits. If you can work efficiently in your pajamas then do it. If getting showered and dressed half way through your day suits you better then do that. Do what makes you most productive.
3. Have a Separate Room at home that is set up as your office.
If you are the kind of person who will benefit from this then by all means go ahead and do it, but there are many others who can work quite happily on their online businesses while sitting in a comfortable chair with their laptop in front of the TV. So although this tip is not a bad one, it really is not a hard and fast rule to be applied. We are all different and what suits one person does not necessarily suit another.
There is a story about a very successful online marketer who began his career with a few roommates all working from their laptops as freelance writers. They would sit in their lounge chairs around the TV with their computers on their laps and take turns playing each other at various video games. When they were not playing they would work.
It may sound unbelievable but they were actually very productive. The video games kept them sane and with enough energy drinks to keep them going they managed to relax and work consistently for at least ten hours a day. As the work was integrated throughout the daily schedule, it never really felt like work at all. In later years when they had moved on and married and they tried to create a work space at home, they found they it just didn't work in the same way for them.
The amount of work from home online business tips available on the internet is limitless, but some of them are definitely worth ignoring.
