Starting Out: Home Office Tips Link Roundup

It’s the beginning of another year, and you might be thinking of starting a new business or doing a little moonlighting. If you’re like most, you’ll probably start from a home office (or choose to remain there). There’s lots to consider, and we’ve covered a lot over the last year. If you’re wondering where to start in your newly minted home office, here’s some tips that just might help.

Here’s to your success in the coming years!

Standing Desks: They are all the rage, whether you have a stationary desk or a treadmill desk. Of course, a standing desk isn’t required for a home office (p.s. I don’t have one), but they are a great alternative you’re so inclined!

Simple Paper Management: Life’s hard enough, managing your paper shouldn’t be. Keep it simple.

Fend Off Productivity Killers: There will be times when you’re not feeling so productive in your home office. Here’s a few ways to fend off those pesky productivity killers. (P.S. This post made the front page of Yahoo.com!)

Keeping Track of Receipts: Again I say, keep it simple. Receipts can be kept under control, and not losing your mind is a plus. (Also, be sure to read my review of the Neat Receipts Scanner. It’s how I keep track of my receipts! Also, I have been told that the IRS will accept scanned copies of receipts, but be sure to check with your accountant or tax preparer.)

Tasks & Getting Them Done: How to keep track of them? Here’s a tip for the “dailies” that need to get done.

Keeping Your Sanity: We’ve been there, nausea & stress sets in. How do you keep from getting completely overwhelmed? This post also contains a tip from a high profile “reporter helper”.

One Size Fits All. Yeah, right. There’s so many things out there that promise the world in getting your stuff done. Like a good fitting pair of jeans, you want it to fit your curves and not induce mid-section constricting nausea. Before jumping into any new system, think about how you work, and check out the links in this post.
