Working From Home: 10 Benefits
The benefits of working from home are numerous. More and more people are making the transition towards working at home, either by starting their own home business or telecommuting with their current employer. Here is a list of advantages I personally benefit from with my home-based business.
1. Save time on commuting.
You can loose so many hours in a week on commuting. When you work from home, the hours you save on commuting can be re-assigned to better things, like exercising, family time, or sleeping. You can start work earlier in the morning, and finish earlier too!
2. Save money and get tax benefits.
You will save money on travel expenses such as petrol, parking, tolls, car insurance or public transport, as well as other expenses such as clothing, lunch and coffee. You can even save on daycare or after school care fees. Best of all, you will get deductions on your tax for all expenses related to your home business, and this can even include electricity and mortgage costs!
3. Be your own boss.
Have you ever experienced frustration from a boss' unpractical demands? If so, you can probably envision the benefits of being your own boss. Having the ability to do things your way, to determine your own schedule, to make final decisions and to avoid unnecessary meetings can be a real asset to one's job satisfaction and productivity.
4. Develop broad skills and choose your functions.
When you own a home business, you rely on yourself to get the job done. Your job description becomes all inclusive and seeing a project from start to finish is especially gratifying. It doesn't mean you must do everything though - how about outsourcing the tasks you do not enjoy? That is certainly an option you don't often have when you work for someone else!
5. Be productive.
You won't be interrupted by spontaneous visits from colleagues and meetings you do not benefit from anymore. Turn the phone off if you want to.
6. Personally benefit from your hard work.
You now create results for yourself because you own the outcome! Aside from the obvious financial rewards, there are important emotional rewards as well! You motivation and pride will increase as you devote yourself to succeeding.
7. Create your ideal work environment.
Get yourself a window! Choose your air conditioning setting, lighting and colour scheme. Make your office inspiring and comfortable.
8. Improve your health.
You will now have many opportunities to incorporate healthy habits into your daily routine. You can exercise at any time of the day which suits you best and have healthier home-made lunches. Sleep more now that your office is only seconds away from your bed! Watch your stress levels drop and your energy levels rise as you adopt a healthier lifestyle.
9. Be available for family or personal commitments.
Be available to pick up your kids from school or attend their school events and performances. Keep them home with you when they are sick, without sacrificing a full day at work. Be home in time for a family dinner. Drive your friend to a medical appointment. Commit to personal events without needing approval from anyone, and make up for it in your own time. This is freedom.
10. Have flexibility to do housework.
Now you can incorporate into your daily routine some household chores. Getting some things done during the week will give you more free time to enjoy the weekend! Remember, you have more time now that you don't commute! You can also be home for the repairman without leaving work and wasting time, and even make personal calls without hiding!
