Reflections on Working From Home
So after working from home for almost a year now. I have learned a few things about myself. The first one being that I am kind of... well lazy when it comes to the stuff that I do. You know work for one hour rest for two is a pretty common thing for me. I need to stop doing that... granted I do stop doing that when the work is interesting.. which is not very often. Well it holds the chance to become more interesting. However, for now it is stupid.
Which brings me to the next problem.. I have to suffer though work and then with my time off I feel like doing nothing. That is something that is hard to deal with. Because you would think that in that time that I take for a break I could do something useful for this site.. you know like write a review or something. Sadly, that is not the case. You see when you are so freaking bored with yourself that you do not know what to do.. well you kind of lose all inspiration and stuff needed for this kind of work. I mean yeah I could write something, but it would be as forced as this entry is. For blogs that is ok, at least I think so. For my reviews that is not ok. It is a conundrum.
Speaking of conundrums, I ran into one this morning. You see I was hungry this morning. However, because I was hungry I had a hard time getting out of bed. I mean I knew all I had to do was get up and make myself some breakfast and eat. Then again, it was kind of chilly in the apartment.. well that was annoying and well I could just keep sleeping. That was ok, well it is not ok, but it was so warm in bed. So I run into this never-ending loop of get up and eat or go back to sleep and try again in 30 to 150 minutes. It is a conundrum that is for sure. Which makes it hard to get out and do anything.
Even on days when I am able to break the vicious cycle. There are those days where I just do not want to work. I guess this is one of the great things about working from home. However, at the same time I struggle with my work sometimes. Uhh some days when the work is so boring that extra hour of Skyrim seems good or that entire anime series feels good too. It is so very hard to work. At least when I was stuck in the office I could get some work done.
Well regardless of what I say here, I am still happy to not have to work from work. I love working from home. In reality it is harder than it looks. When you are not distracted, well you get too into your work and... well sometimes you work 12 to 15 hour days and do not even notice it. Especially if you have nothing else to do during the day. You find a good problem to solve and it just never ends. So the good point about working from home is that it goes both ways. That makes life annoying sometimes. Either way.. that is the work from home thoughts I had today.
