OMG, I’m an artist, working towards setting up an online business to sell my art. I now have my own ‘corner office’ with a huge window that opens out to the morning sun… and gorgeous rose bushes, a marantz cd player and amplifier that plays classical pop at full blast, and a dog that curls up at my bare feet. however there are definitely challenges! these are: 1. Inertia – sometimes I get lazy one day, and the next thing I know I haven’t got anything done for 3 days. 2. Then, bec. I stress out, overcompensate and end up doing 3 days worth of work in 1 day. Learning how to self-manage is so important. This is a complete lifestyle change, and for me, I’m still getting used to it, but I think it’s one that’s worth embracing!

Congratulations Brett! Working at home has so many positives. I am in my second year and find that I have to make sure that I get out of the house at least once a day and that the e-mail dings don’t draw me back to the computer at all hours of the night. It’s all about balance.

Continued success -

I just started working from home three months ago. I LOVE it. My office space is set up just as I like it. I sit on the couch with my laptop. My music plays all day with the fountain running and the candles burning. It’s very peaceful. I don’t have to worry about someone else’s alergies or them spraying Lysol all over the place!

And the commute ROCKS!

Hi Brett
I started working for myself as a consultant/writer a couple of years ago–I LOVE working from home, for myself. Never want to go back.
BTW, also liked your posts on difficult people–I’ve had such a crash course in bullying, narcissism, etc. I feel like I earned a second Master’s. More people need to talk about it–and how to deal with it. I’ve written about it myself:

Thanks for your work.
