A lot has changed about how we work, and most people have no choice but to transition to working from home. But even before the pandemic, an increasing number of people bid goodbye to their onerous commute to become freelancers and telecommuters. Thanks to ever-evolving technologies such as Skype, Zoom, Facetime, Google Hangouts, Slack, and cloud computing, its no longer necessary to be in an office to be productive. In fact, most tasks can be done just as effectively from home.
Working from home can be one of the greatest perks of doing freelance work. But as appealing as remote work sounds, it comes with several challenges.

We are creatures of habit and that is because routine helps us both mentally and physically to prepare for things. One of the benefits of working from home is flexibility. It might be tempting to roll out of bed and onto your couch and starting checking emails or browsing through social media, but youll need to establish a schedule when it comes to working remotely.
Whats goes into your schedule is a guide on what youre supposed to do at a specific time. Get up early in the morning, take a shower, prepare a cup of coffee and take breakfast, then get dressed as if youre actually reporting to work. You dont have to wear a suit and a tie, but youll need to prepare for the day the same way you do while going to the office. Set regular working hours and include breaks and meal times. In the end, a routine can be extremely powerful at helping you get started every day.
