Working from home is not for everyone

I do it and I LOVE it and as a single Mom, it's really necessary for me.
However it is NOT for everybody.

So if you are thinking about working from home
or just started this journey, make sure your "WHY" is clear and you have goals(written). Both short term and long term. Being motivated is nice but you DO need to have a goal to reach...a reason, a strong reason for investing your time and money and effort into launching any home business.
It's called "work" at home for a reason..you DO have to work at it.
However, the rewards are many ..freedom, flexibilty , being with the kids, retirement money, personal satisfaction and so on.

Feel free to read some more of my thoughts and motivation on my blog The Bella Blog

I wish you all much success !

I agree. I think when I first started, it wasn't quite right for me, but I made lots of changes to how I work and I feel it's a great fit now.

The biggest change for me was setting up a schedule and sticking to it. EVERYDAY.
