The sun shines through your window cheerily, and you contemplate rolling over and getting a few more minutes of sleep. After all, you own your own business, and one of the perks is that you make the rules, right?
Wrong.
While you can make most of the rules, organization isn't something you can compromise on; at least not if you want to be successful. Getting a few more hours of sleep may seem appealing, but it's likely to cause a backlog of work for the future. Procrastination is not your friend. However, determination, organization and resolve are definitely your friends, and you should put them to use as much as possible.
Setting Business Hours
If you own your own home based business, you need to set up regular working hours. Whether those hours are at night, when the rest of the household is in bed, or it's during the day, during traditional working hours, you should have an allocated time that you work. This will help you to plan your day better, and not fall under the pall of procrastination, like so many other business owners do.
Staying Neat
If you walk into your work area and see files on the floor and papers littering your desk, it's tough to get motivated about your job. Staying neat and organized is the solution to this problem. By keeping your area neat and easily accessible, you'll find that your job is a whole lot easier.
Get Into a Routine
Routine is the mortal enemy of procrastination. People are creatures of habit, so it only follows that if you set a routine, you'll stick to it out of habit. If you need to get motivated in the morning, try going for a light jog, or visiting your local gym before you start your day. Not only will this benefit you health-wise, but it will allow you to get your blood moving, which will certainly get you motivated.
The important thing, no matter how you accomplish the feat, is to set up some sort of routine that works for you, and stick to it.
Organization is a major keystone in any successful, well run business. Don't allow procrastination to make a failure out of you.
