Work at Home Time Management Tips
Copyright 2006 Harrold Swalve
People who work at home have the freedom to set their schedules and hours. However, it can be difficult to stay on task with so many additional distractions when you work at home. Here are some time management tips to help you stay on task as you work at home.
First of all, have a set agenda when you use your computer and go online as you work at home. Keep a list of your daily tasks and goals and stick to your list. It's very easy to stray from your work tasks and check your personal email or just surf the net.
Work from your to-do list and cross off your tasks as you accomplish each one. You should group similar tasks together. Check your email 2 or 3 times daily and answer your email at those same times. Work on one project at time and stick with that project until you are finished. Jumping between tasks as you work at home takes more time.
Assess your needs and see if it is justifiable to get wireless Internet and/or a laptop for your work at home needs.
A laptop can enable to you to take your work with you if need be. This might be beneficial if you spend a lot of time waiting for kids at practices or if you are watching your kids in the yard while you try to work at home. Identify things at home that waste your time. Perhaps friends call to talk or your favorite television show comes on during the middle of the day. Try to eliminate these time wasters as you work at home.
Don't answer the phone for personal calls during your work time and avoid household distractions such as the television.
Use a timer to keep on task. Allow yourself so much time for a break or to accomplish quick tasks and stick to that set amount time. Having a routine helps with time management. A routine allows you to do task automatically and takes up less time. For instance, checking your email first thing everyday as you work at home can become routine and help you to get your day started right away.
A routine allows your day to run more smoothly.
Finally, you have to set limits for yourself. Sometimes it's not feasible to get all your work at home projects accomplished in one day. Make sure your goals are realistic and can be accomplished in the time you have allotted for them. Following these few rules can help you save time as you work at home and make your days a little easier.

7 Years At The Keyboard
Ok, for those of you still waiting, the Internet won't go away.
Hang up the hopes that it represents a passing fad sharing the fate of the Beanie or the Pet Rock.
With legitimate high-tech stocks finally in the market, regular people doing "real" business online, and consumer acceptance to the point of purchasing movie tickets and homeowners insurance over the Internet, the Web is here to stay. However, many people still get that glassy-eyed, far away dreamer look on their faces when they think of the riches awaiting them on just the other side of their own dot-com. Well, whether your business represents a laptop on a TV tray in the basement, or a mega-corporation with offices all over the world, my last 7 years in the Wild West online has revealed a few "truths" which should last from here until the end of computers.
** There is no get-rich-quick!
** I guess it's in man's nature to desire instant wealth.
Since the dawn of history, people threw...

eBooks – Technology for the Armchair or the Student Desktop?
Gloucester, United Kingdom (ContentDesk) January 24, 2006 Textbook Solutions believes eBooks should be more than just a good read, and today announced the release of eTextbookViewer, available for free download from www.etextbookshop.com.The added-value approach by Textbook Solutions differs from other eBook software vendors. It recognises that a move from paper to electronic books can provide significant functionality benefits to the reader, rather than simply delivering the same content in a different medium."Other organisations are trying to promote the use of eBooks for works of fiction, whereas we believe delivering textbooks in a more productive way is a more realistic goal than expecting folks to curl up in an armchair with their dual processor laptop pumping out 400 watts of heat.", says Phil Webb, of Textbook Solutions. "We took a look at the life of a student, leaving the social life...
