Stay At Home Work Have You Feeling A Bit
Lonely?
When you stay at home and work, either at
a stay at home job or at a home based business, it’s
easy to start feeling isolated and lonely. This is
especially true if you worked in a large company with a
lot of people before you decided to stay at home and
work. It really is possible to go days without
seeing anyone but family members when you work at a stay
at home job or home based business. After a while, the
isolation can get to you and make you long for the old
days, as bad as they were.
So it’s important to take breaks from
your stay at home work or home based business and find
opportunities to interact with people. One of the
best ways to avoid feeling lonely and isolated in your
stay at home job is to join a professional group in your
area. Your local Chamber of Commerce is a good
organization to join and take part in. Not only
will the meetings give you the chance to be with other
people, they can also be a great way to network your
home based business or to pick up projects for your stay
at home job. Best of all, you’ll be able to spend
time with people who also have small businesses, many of
them home based businesses, and you’ll be able to pick
up some great ideas for your home based business.
Another strategy for coping with the
loneliness that goes along with a stay at home job or
home based business is to find other people in your area
who are also working at stay at home jobs or home based
businesses. You probably already know many people
who are in similar shoes. They’d love to get
together and shake off the stay at home loneliness for a
couple of yours. Get in touch with them and see if
you can’t set up a once-a-week breakfast. Again,
this will give you the chance to talk with people about
stay at home job and home based business issues.
You’ll get a lot of good ideas and maybe even be able to
co-op some work for your home based business of stay at
home job service.
And here’s another thing you can do to
beat the home based business and stay at home job
“lonelies”—join your local Y. Too often stay at
home workers and home based business owners spend way
too much time at their desks, staring at the computer
screen. You need to have some exercise. And
one of the advantages of having a stay at home job or
home based business is that you can—or should be able
to!—make your own schedule, at least to some degree.
Yes, you have to met your stay at home job and home
based business deadlines, but you can plan to spend time
a little time exercising at the Y several morning or
afternoons a week. Going to the Y has the
advantage of letting you be with people who are NOT
connected with your stay at home job or home based
business. Because while it is a good to be with
home based businesspeople and stay at home workers
sometimes, you also need to be with people who aren’t so
that you can forget about your business and stay at home
work some too. It’s too easy to let your stay at
home work take over your life. So join the Y and
meet all kinds of people. You’ll find you go back
to your home based business office refreshed and ready
to go to work.
Also, take advantage of email. When
you stay at home and work or have a home based business,
you’re likely to deal with many people just like you who
are staying at home to work or running their own home
based business. It’s easy to forget, though, that
they are people who get lonely too. So make some
online friends. You’ll be amazed at how much less
lonely you’ll feel in your stay at home job or home
based business just by doing this one thing.
Finally,
if your stay at home job or home based business really
has you feeling lonely and blue, and you’re yearning for
the old 9-to-5 cubicle you once had, stop and think for
a minute. Were those many conversations you had
with co-workers really all that great? Did you
actually want to hear about Sally’s gall bladder
operation or about Steve’s son’s grand slam hit or
Gary’s marital problems? Didn’t think so.
And now your stay at home job or home based business
office looks better than ever, doesn’t it?
