boss means you are responsible for all your acts and deeds.
Bring Balance in Work & Personal Life
When you work from home, even if you work as part of a virtual team, you're still
the only team member around. Manage time for your self in the off hours .
Take Yourself Seriously - Even When Others Don't
When you work from home, people take your work casually and keep bothering.
Remember, the burden lies upon you to set your working hours, stick to them,
actually work during those hours, and refuse to let anyone else dissuade you from
taking your work seriously.
