    Think Ying/Yang, not either/or. For me its awesome, but there are days I'd really like to stake a person or two so they'd leave me a lone to get work done. Do a search on this forum - someone asked a similar question a few weeks ago.
    best,

    That guy is the same like me (the fat one) LOL. Working in home is good, but sometimes is very boring!

    It's terribly awesome!
    The freedom is wonderful. And at the same time, one has chosen to take responsibility for their own slavery--if that is how you perceive any aspect of it.
    Some people love not having a boss or supervisor. Some people could be their own boss or supervisor.

      Hi sparkie2260

      Yes the freedom is great and the potential to earn is there.
      Discipline is needed to be productive though.
      And being able to keep a divide between business and personal life if you have a family can be quite a balancing act.

    working home is depends on your creativity, like some DIY stuff, or if you works near home.

    if you have a remote business, it's depends on electric, communication, and internet connectivity. everything takes risk.

    It can be awesome when you block out all the distractions. I intended to run a few errands yesterday and then come home to do my work, but it didn't work out so well. I was so tired when I got home so I ended up flopping on the couch. I find myself running short on time becuase I try to juggle it all.

      I like working from home. I don't have to commute, I am in charge of my own time, and I don't have to deal with a boss.

      On the other hand, I really miss paid holidays!

      Hi,

      I love it, the feeling to do what you love the most from home or anywhere in the world is amazing ... I believe that only a few of us can really see how great it is to be the creator of your own reality !

      Regards,

    I like working from home. Actually a lot of the time I'm not at home, I'm out visiting clients, but I sure don't go driving during the rush hours.

    In Seattle it's nice to be able to take the day off, or go for a walk or something when the weathers nice. There's a lot of overcast so being stuck inside on a sunny feels awful :-(
