Working at home has a nice ring to it and many see being able to set their own hours as a dream come true. For those who have little or no self-discipline, that dream can quickly turn into a nightmare. There may be times when a deadline is approaching as well as your favorite sports team on television. Without the discipline to set your priorities to your work, your home business will fail.

When you make the commitment to work from home, you are telling your clients or customers that you are ready to do whatever it takes to get the job done within the promised time. When you continually fail to do that, you are telling them that you do not care about their needs and your time is more important to you than their project.

When you work from home, if there is no one around a majority of the day then there should be no distractions to keep you from getting your work done. When you first begin working at home, the first few days may be wasted as you get up in the mornings and think about not having to go anywhere. How nice it is that you can work whenever you feel like it. Soon, however, you may find yourself struggling to hit deadlines and having trouble finding new projects.

One tip about working from home is that while you can work in your pajamas, until you are settled into your routine of working at home, get up in the morning and get dressed for work. Hit the office at a specified time and establish regular hours. Once acclimated to getting your work done on time, then you can play with your schedule and your dog during the day and finish your work in the evening.

Many clients will not care whether you are working on their project at seven in the morning or 10 at night. Their only concern is that the work is done to their specifications within the time that was promised. It is up to you to accomplish this.

Other than discipline, organization is a key ingredient in working from home so that little details, or big jobs, are not overlooked and forgotten. Other than not getting a project completed on time, the worst customer service you can offer is telling a client that you forgot to do their work. Telling them they are not important enough to remember will likely not bring you any additional business from them or their friends.

Once you are organized and disciplined, you can be prepared to work more hours than normal. At least until you have established yourself in your business and become acclimated to the amount of work you need to do. Another tip is to finish all the hard projects at the beginning so if you get behind, the easy ones can be done quickly.
