It’s just so easy to get distracted, but I’m once again going to try to stick with my goals I wrote up late last year. It took so long to get this new computer up and running that it was easy to keep letting things slide. But now everything is as ready as it can be. I finally even have my ergonomic keyboard
Keeping up with goals can be pretty tricky, but I believe it’s one of the best ways to succeed. It gives me something to focus on and measure what I’ve accomplished. After all, I don’t have a boss standing over my shoulder telling me what to do, so I’d better be good at telling myself!
I do have some challenges that make these things a little bit trickier than they were when I wrote my goals. My son is just starting to walk on his own, but he prefers to have Mommy’s help, so he’s always coming over and demanding a walk around the house. I try not to tell my kids no without a good reason, and it’s especially hard to tell a baby no. Besides, he’ll grow up all too soon!
The challenges are one of the best things about working at home. It sounds so easy to people who don’t work at home - they think there’s nothing to it, but those of us who do work at home know better. In many ways it’s far harder than a traditional job. Fortunately, the rewards are greater too.
