People are strange that way. "Oh, you work from home? Obviously you don't really work so let's **** around and do useless shit that wastes your time." Seems to be the thinking.
OMG...
You have NO idea how much I sympathise with that...
It's extremely irritating. "Oh it'll only take a few minutes." "You're here anyway." (which always balloons into hours). No respect, I have to tell people off once in awhile for it to make them heed boundaries I ALREADY told them about.
I hear you...believe me.
Looking forward to my self sabotage and limiting beliefs removal Christmas present in time!
On the contrary, my friend, I knew you would. Self employment is it's own club. We the self employed frequently have our own unique sets of challenges. I'm still adjusting to working from home still. I'm used to being free to work for 12+ hours at a time, nearly every day.
