I had a wonderful break from my home-based business over the Thanksgiving holiday. That was over a week ago. And it has taken me this long to fully re-engage in my routine as a work at home mom. I think that is the hardest part, for me, in this style of career choice.
I am very comfortable with a routine. And when that routine changes, it take some adjusting. Even when the “new” pattern is restful and relaxing, it can actually take some discipline to transition into it! And once it’s time to return to the “original” pattern that demands more from me, I seem to have this natural resistance. No matter how much I adore the “original” pattern, it takes me time to pick up speed and get into it. This is one of the reasons I don’t indulge in those slower-paced breaks very often!
Maybe this is not unique to working at home. Maybe it’s that way for everybody? Or maybe it’s not a function of where one works, but rather one’s work personality
