10 reasons to work from home
The 10 reasons listed in this article ( and my comments on each) are:
1. Work anywhere. ( true… below I am just the photographer, but I prove my point - out the windows you can see the Gasteig Cultural Center in Munchen, Germany.)
2. Complete control of the design of your workspace. ( exactly, girly flowers everywhere.)
3. Less distractions. ( that is very true from my point of view. While other people say that staying at home distracts them from work, for me it is the other way around. I like the silence and I am more productive when I can make my own schedule. I guess this is a side effect of being an only child…)
4. Flexible time. ( I also agree here, although I am more productive in the morning rather than late at night, so my home schedule is 9 to 6 just as the office schedule is.)
5. More focus on results, not presence. ( presence as not being late in the morning, presence as office dress code, presence as socializing - although this part can actually be fun if you are lucky enough - , presence as long meetings with the management. )
6. More time with family. ( reading the blogs of other many freelance consultants, I have seen that a common good side effect of freelancing is the ability to actually be a parent not only by name or circumstance)
7. Work in your underwear. ( no comment 
8. Yoga at your desk. ( you can replace the commute time with jogging in the park time. Or just jogging around the neighborhood.)
9. Less commute. Less pollution. ( not on my side 
10. Work fewer hours. ( work hours are not 9 to 6 - work hours are 7 to 7, because between the time that you get up in the morning and the time you enter your home at night you do it all for your job - get up, get dressed, commute, work, eat lunch, work again and commute back home.)
