Pondering

by tm · May 12, 2010


It’s been 4 weeks since I have left my job and I think I’m starting to get the hang of this “working from home” business.

Hasn’t been easy. Mostly because I haven’t made it easy for myself. I feel like I’ve been chasing my tail, running from one project to another, with the idea of doing a little bit of everything every day and failing miserably. Many nights I have gone to bed feeling frustrated, with the annoying thought that after a 12 hours working day I haven’t actually accomplished anything.

I have started thinking that maybe, maybe, it’s better for me to work for others after all, in a studio or an office, that this working for myself, having my own studio, it’s not for me.

I knew already that I needed a structure to be productive, that I need to plan my activities to make the most of my time. Mainly because I just want to do too many things.

The funny things is that I’m so good at prioritizing my workload when I work for others, why can’t I translate those skills into my own work?

Well, I’m not giving up that easily, I always like to find solutions to my problems and I do enjoy a challenge.
And, like I’ve said, I think I’m starting to get the hang of this.

Let’s see how it goes.
