Self employed people : when you have no work, do you artificially build routine into your life?

Question

I'm pretty good when I have work, but when I don't, my lifestyle quickly becomes, well, slobbish. Getting up late, staying up late, planning to do things and never getting round to them....

Is there a way to combat this?

A_Kansan, it depends what you mean by success. I've been self employed for five years, I'd call that pretty fuçking successful.

Answer 1

Sounds to me like you lack discipline.

If you are self employed and don't have immediate work, you need to be searching for your next job.

It is like planting a crop on a rotating basis. Some is just planted, another row is growing, another maturing, while still another is ready for harvest.

If you do not have the self discipline and get-up-and-go to keep busy, it does not bode well for success as a self employed person.

Good Luck
