developing workethics: first workday as a freelancer (and newly-wed)
So.. this is my first day as a freelancer (and first workday as newly-wed)… and there’s a lot to be taken care of. As I have previously written on this blog, Thomas has given me a lot of freelancing books on how to manage everything. I am currently looking into deploying a good workethic working at home.
So the first steps will be:
- No checking email except for lunch and after work
- using productivity tools to actually keep in mind what I should be doing (The last thing I do when the workday is over is that I set new to-do’s for the day after
- no IM or Skype unless necessary
- no naps ( even though I love a good mid-morning nap)
I have an idea that this is going to be a freelance blog for a while now =) anyway, I hope you like my considerations

I really like my 30 minutes after lunch nap and try to do that as often as possible…. Actually: I just came from one…
Congratulations on the wedding and your new job status. I’m sure you will do just great on both accounts…
