Many people find that working from home is something that they can do in order to make themselves even more successful. However, if you are working from home you probably know that it is easy to slack off or to sleep in, and it might be easy to not get as much done as you should, simply because you have the freedom to work whenever you want to work. While some find that working at home makes them more productive, some find that the opposite is true and that without the schedule that forces them to be at work, they are unable to get things done easily. There are a few things that you can do to make sure that you are able to be productive and still be able to have the freedom of working from home.

First of all, you should set a work schedule. Because you work from home, this can be any type of schedule that you need. You can work mornings or afternoons or even nights. However, you should be sure that you set a schedule and keep to it. This will mean that your clients will know when to reach you, your family will know when you are working and when you are not, and you will be able to fit everything into your schedule .The best part about working from home is that you are going to be able to decide when you want to work and when you do not want to work. Therefore, be sure that you set the schedule for times that you do want to work.

Next, even though you are working from home you should be going somewhere while you are work. Don't set up your laptop in front of your TV and think that you will get anything done while you are working from home. Set up a desk or even a tray table somewhere that can be your home office. Remember that you don’t' always need an actual office for your home office – you can simply use an area that is only for your work. If you have a place to go that is the place you only go when you are working, you'll find that you are able to get much more done.

If you are able to have set work hours and to actually go somewhere else for your work, you will find that you are much more productive. There are other things that you can do as well. Get dressed for work, even if you aren't going to work. Spend some time making sure that you feel like you are getting ready for work, so that while you are working you will feel as if you are doing more than just hanging out at home. If you are trying to run a household or take care of children as well, be sure that you schedule things in such a way so that your work time does not overlap with this time, either. You will be much more productive.
