If you feel overwhelmed by working from home you have to invest time in looking at your big picture. Just remember, you have to invest time to make time. 2. Wherever you go, you take your personality with you. So, even if you suddenly leave the life you have now and move to live on an island and become a freelancer - you're taking your personality with you. You always have to invest in your inner wellness. 3. Remind yourself that you are a work in progress. The end of the day is not the end of everything. The more you know yourself, the more you can serve yourself. 4. If you work from home, you may want to set up part of your home environment to be conducive to work. One way to go about this is to have a specific place where you work. Even if you don't have an office, you just have to ritualize work from home. A ritual doesn't have to be complicated, it just has to be meaningful to you. You can do something such as repeating a mantra before work or having an object that you take around with you where you work. 5. It's ok to be who you are. Allow yourself to be who you are while still investing in yourself to be the best person you can be.
