When I started getting burned out from the long hours it required me to keep my business running, I started outsourcing all the mundane tasks that seemed to suck up my time and my creative energy, like invoicing clients. By the time I was done with all that record keeping and tax management stuff, my brain was fried and I wasn’t giving my projects the energy that my clients deserved. Now that I outsource everything to an employer of record company (MBO Partners, http://www.mbopartners.com ), I have much more time and can afford to take breaks, have a snack, go for a walk or whatever it takes to refresh my mind.

i use my email inbox as my work queue. if i have multiple job requests waiting in there, i do the quickest ones first to get them out of the way, then the larger/slower ones. This gets the majority of work out of my way first, and makes me feel more productive.

i also dont take phone calls before 9am (i start work around 8) so i have an hour of uninterrupted time to work. And over the years, my clients have come to learn that they get a faster response from emailing than calling anyway.

and, i just work really really fast. luckily. :)

Hello Dave

So glad I followed a facebook link to this site. Phone off the hook is a big one for me. It’s not so much the calls I make as the ones I receive – I often wonder if I’d receive them if I were working in an office – some people seem to think that if you’re working from home you aren’t really working …

I needed only a month of tracking on an excel spreadsheet to make me realize (with SHOCK) how much time I was wasting on silly things:)

100% awesome tips. I find that setting a reminder on Outlook for 10am make sure the covnersation or blog reading that go with my morning coffee’s have a great effect and make me thing ‘damn i need to get something done’, if not these readings and conversations can hit lunch.
