Working From Home Isn't Without Stress

Sorry, guys.  It's true.  Sure, you aren't answerable to anyone but yourself.  Or so you think.  Actually, the facts are that you are answerable to the boss (yourself) every bit as much as you would be the boss in a traditional job.  Not just that, but you may find that people you know think because you work at home you are available anytime they should want to call upon you for favors.  You are also answerable to the pets in your life, your children, your spouse.  Finding balance in your work and home may actually be more difficult because they are located in the same place.  The good news is that should you need a break, you can give yourself one.

I have been helping someone to increase their Squidoo earnings.  I have come to appreciate this very special lady, and today she is not feeling all that great, which saddens me.  Even though she is feeling down, and unwell, she took the time to send me this beautiful email and it made me stop and think about something other than work.  I hope it will give you pause for thought too.

 I would rather have one rose and a kind word from a friend while I'm here, than a whole truck load when I'm gone. These Are For You!!!






Happiness keeps you Sweet,

Trials keep you Strong,

Sorrows keep you Human,

Failures keep you Humble,

Success keeps you Glowing,

But... Only Friends...

Keep You Going!!!

  1. Some things are out of your control, but many stressors are not.
