Do you want to work in your pyjamas?
Isn’t that the big online dream? To work from home, get out of bed at whatever time you want and work in your pyjamas all day if that’s what you decide to do?
Does that system really work though? Is it a good thing to work in your pyjamas?
I don’t think it does. I think you should ‘dress for success’.
Why???
When you work from home you are your own boss. The big disadvantage that comes with being your own boss is that you don’t have someone telling you what you have to do. Although, I know that’s the reason we don’t want a boss, however, without having someone telling you what to do, or giving you a deadline to meet, sometimes we can tend to slacken off a bit.
We don’t have a deadline to finish writing that report, so perhaps we’ll leave it until a bit later while we do some research to try and find a better way to make money online.
Many people will spend most of their time always looking for something else and never putting enough focus into one project. You may be wondering what has this got to do with how you dress.
I believe that if you get up in the morning and get ready to go to work as you would if you were going to a normal job, then you will get more accomplished during the day. Get dressed to suit the standard that you are trying to make for yourself by working online.
You want to make a decent income and be able to afford nice clothes and luxury items. I’m not saying to go out and buy all those luxury items now, but dress as though you are in that position.
Dressing for success will give you the motivation throughout the day to work hard for what you want.
Working in your pyjamas can make you a bit laid back in your approach to your work. It’s all about your attitude and your attitude can make a huge difference to whether you are successful online or not. How you dress and the routine you give yourself can make a big difference on your attitude for the day.
Although being able to work your own hours and wear whatever you want is one of the many advantages to working online, it is important to treat your online work as a normal job. Put in the time and the effort to make it work. Dressing as you would for a normal job can go a long way to giving your job all you’ve got and becoming very successful with it.
