The
Working Parent's Home Office - Organization for Success
Copyright
(c) 2006-2007 Ruby River Live Great Life
http://www.livegreatlife.com
If you're a
parent that works at home, you already know about the ongoing conflict
between your business and your family obligations. Home based businesses
are rapidly becoming the norm in our world of high technology. As a
parent, this is great news, as it allows you to be in the house with your
kids while still creating a necessary income. So, when combining your work
life with your home life, how do you find the proper balance, so each can
be stable and successful? To begin with you need to have the correct tools
at your disposal for whatever your work at home business is.
While this
may sound easy, the lack of organization can be a death knell to your home
based business. Beyond strong organization, you'll also need to be able to
communicate with your family effectively, set limitations, prioritize your
day, stick to your commitments, and learn how to be flexible. Sounds like
a lot, doesn't it? It's not only possible, it's very manageable, and while
the balance will rarely be perfect, optimizing your schedule and your
office will lead you to not only a stronger business - but a stronger
family unit, as well. The following steps will help get you started:
Communication
Whether
you're running an internet home based business or another type of work at
home career, start with communication. Explain to your family what your
home based business will require in order for it be streamlined. This is
all about expectations, and may include establishing protocol for
interruptions, discussing your normal working hours, and basic rules to be
followed. Be ready to listen, question, and explain every detail fully.
Organization
It's
essential to have the proper tools in order to work at home successfully.
Be sure to have a strong internet connection (especially if you have an
internet home based business), a dedicated telephone (it can be a cell
phone), a place to keep files and notes so you can find them quickly, and
a way of organizing your incoming work.
Limitations
Your family
is important and they are probably the main reason you're in a home based
business to begin with. However, your children need to understand you're
working - even if you're only in the next room. You'll need to set
limitations with them so they know how to approach you in non-emergency
circumstances. You could designate a signal that will visually tell them
you cannot be interrupted unless it is an emergency. This can be as simple
as a closed door or a sign you hang outside of your office.
Prioritize
Invest in a
calendar, whether the old-fashioned type or computer software, to use as a
planning tool. This is one of the most important steps you can take if you
work at home, because you need a place to pencil (or type) in
appointments, school activities, deadlines, etc. Get into the habit of
updating your planning tool throughout each day so you can set your
priorities well in advance.
Commitment
If you tell
your son that you'll be at his soccer game - be there. If you tell a
business associate you will be available to talk on a certain day and
time, make sure you are. Your word is important within your family and
your business - so unless something happens that you cannot control, live
up to what you say. If you do have to break a commitment, be open and
honest about it and be ready with an alternate plan. If this happens - it
is essential that the alternate plans you made are adhered to.
Flexibility
As with
anything in life, learning to be flexible will save you, your family, and
your home based business unnecessary stress. Things happen in life, try to
find different solutions and different methods when issues pop up. A work
at home office can truly make a difference in narrowing the gap between
career and family, especially if the office is organized and the
expectations with your family are firmly in place. Combined, it will allow
you to remain the stabilizing force you need to be - both in your home
based business and in your family.

Party Plan Tips
The Hawaiian Vacation
This is a really fun game to relax everyone. Give each person
1/2 sheet of typing paper. Tell them to lay it on the catalog
and turn lengthwise on their laps.
"Now we are going to see how well you can draw! Close your eyes
and keep them closed for the entire game. We are going on a
Hawaiian Vacation, so draw an island in the middle of your
paper....
- to the left of your island draw a ship
- you are surrounded by water, so put some fish in the sea
- this is Hawaii, so put a palm tree on the island
- its a nice day, so put some birds in the air
- that ship didn't get there all by itself, so put a sailor
on the ship
- he might get hungry so draw some coconuts on the palm tree
- sailors like to see where they're going, so put portholes
on the ship
- sailors like entertainment, so draw a hula dancer on the
island
- it's a sunny day so put the sun in the sky
NOW YOU CAN OPEN YOUR EYES!!
(give a couple of minutes to share and laugh)
Now we are going to see how well you did - score your
points
IF
your island is in the middle
.......................................................10 points
your ship is to the left of the island but not touching
....................10 points
you have more than 2 fish
.........................................................15
points
the base of the palm tree is on the island
...................................20 points
more than 2 birds are in the sky
................................................15 points
the sailor is on the ship, not swimming
.......................................20 points
any coconut is on the tree
.........................................................15
points
any porthole is on the ship
........................................................20
points
the hula dancer is on the island
.................................................20 points
- now the sun
if to the left
...............................................................................20
points
if to the
right..............................................................................15
points
if in the middle
..........................................................................10
points
Add the points - perfect score is 165.
Highest score receives a gift. Remember there maybe two winners
so have an extra gift.
Do not play with the same group twice, they catch on to it.
Have Fun.
