"One thing I have found to help me be more productive is to have the right mental mindset. And a lot of it has to do with gratitude and appreciating all the good things that you get to enjoy through working, you know, in a home office where you have a little bit more flexibility. You don't have an employer breathing down your neck. I think there's a lot of real blessings getting to work in a home office, and as you focus on that, and as you cultivate an attitude of appreciation for the benefits that that provides, it helps you be more productive. Because with any job, whether you're self employed or telecommuting and working for someone else, you can always find things that you don't like about it. I mean for me, I'm a very extroverted social person, so sometimes I think "oh you know, I don't have any coworkers to talk to" or "I'm lonely, I wish I had more contact". And then I go "do I really?". Would I really turn in all the benefits and perks to have coworkers around me? No I wouldn't. Not for a second. For me working in a home office is. Really is about as close to ideal as it can get. And I think a lot of people who work in home offices find that there are other perks. And that they also really enjoy it, for a variety of different reasons. So, I really think that if you. If you ever catch yourself thinking about things that are negative, or that you maybe don't like about your situation. Really take the time to think about all of the things that are really great about working from a home office. And be grateful for that. And that's really going to help you enjoy your work. And when you enjoy your work, you are naturally more productive. So that's just one of the really. One of the top recommendations that I have really. Is to cultivate that attitude of gratitude and appreciation, and that will really help you be more productive."
