How do you Manage your time Working at home?

I am a Graphic and Web Designer and I love working from home, but it is just kind of hard to work at home. Because Most of the time I am playing games on my computer or watching Youtube videos and other things.

How can I increase productivity?

I have noticed that sitting on a chair and table is really helpful but I don't have a proper workstation. I have a laptop and my bed I lay on it and work.

I work from home and I also have kids. I manage my time by coming up with a schedule for the day. I tend to do online work first thing in the morning and when they are napping and again late at night.You have to figure out what works for you and stick to it. Working online isnt easy. Takes dedication. Good luck

Working from home is tough. There are so many ways to be distracted (games, family, TV, outside tasks, etc). The key for me was setting working hours and following them. I shut the door to my office, that let's other family members know I am working and not to disturbe me.

Hello,
I'm working full time online and I've been doing so for the last few years now. I am using a to do list to manage everything I can possible do each day. That way, I won't get distracted as easily as I was before I was using a list. You'll need to be determined. You are your own boss. Not everyone is okay with that but I love it. I love the freedom and the responsibility that comes with being a freelancer. Setting up a schedule to follow with real working hours is usually a good option for the ones who gets distracted easily. Don't forget to take short breaks too!

Best Regards,

I work at home, it is really easy to just type and move the mouse a bit i know that you may think and use your brain while doing something but it is fun to stay on the computer i do really enjoy playing,working on it especially when it comes to forums.

Hope i have helped.

Kind regards,
Exceed

When I started working online, I was not serious then. Distractions usually interrupt me that I often lose my focus. The people in our home and our dogs are the elements of distractions to my work. But when I got serious, I declared that I need time for myself when I am in the computer table. Now only the dogs could interrupt me.

I try to have two schedules which I can swap at any time. One in the day and another at night. Because having only one work schedule is boring after doing it for a long time so it's best to change your working schedule once in a while.

I'm a part-time freelance online worker and I manage my time by allotting 3-5 hours a day of my time solely for online work. The problem is with all the online distractions, I'm spending 8-10 hours a day online. But to me it's fine because all work and no play causes stress, I treat my online distractions as my down time and spend it streaming movies, chatting and playing online games.
