Organizing My Home Office Workflow Part 1

January 5th, 2010 Goals & Time Management Office, Paper & Productivity

I love how much work I am able to do right from my own home office! I am able to blog, twitter, write talks, write ebooks, type up client data and on & on. But working from home can also involve distractions like laundry, phone calls and the urge to quickly clean out the dishwasher (even though it’s a chore I can’t stand). When you are your own boss and can work at night or on weekends too, it can be easy to get off track or even have a scattered approach to your work because there isn’t quite that cap on your time or work hours to stay within.

So recently, I’ve really been organizing my home office workflow so I feel like I have a better handle on when I do what tasks and making sure everything gets done in a timely manner. I want to feel like I am accomplishing more during the day instead of being on the computer so much at night. I have decided that in place of the computer at night, I would like to devote more time to exercise and meditation (I’m new at that) and also use that time to clean my house so it’s fresh for the next day. It’s distracting for me to try to work knowing things are out of place in the house.

Next blog I will share the way I am organizing my workflow!
