A dream come true — Working from home. Or is it a dream come true?

I have been working from home for the last ten years. Personally, this is my own choice, I like to save time and work autonomously.
Mainly, I like to work in the early morning hours and have my afternoons off.

Every day I meet or talk with people, they are always telling me: “YOU ARE SO LUCKY you get to work from home. “

Yes, in my case, yes, I am lucky!

Because I love my work, also since my childhood, I have developed strong self-discipline, and I love the fact that I can work before the whole world wakes up.

So YES, I am lucky!

I love to work this way! But many people are failing when it comes to working from home. WHY?

Because even though it sounds AMAZING. You need to know that working from home is quite lonely. You do not have colleagues to discuss with or have a coffee/lunch with someone.

It is just you and your work which needs to be done, no matter what. Also, another thing is that you can get easily distracted by the home environment — TV, Laundry, kitchen dishes, or dirty windows.
