from home requires self-

freedom can be
wonderful, endless

• Practice mindfulness.
• As you move between work space and
home space, pause and adjust your thinking
toward the next task.
• Be kind to those who are also at home and
remember they are not your admin
assistants.

4. LONLINESS
• Be one with yourself.
• Working and living alone can
mess with your head. If
possible, buddy with another
home worker so you have
someone to debrief with.
