Working at home can lead to many distractions that can suck up time and leave you wondering where it went at the end of the day.

The symptoms of this are easy to spot. Imagine that you see your lawn from where you are sitting. Instead of hunkering down and doing the reports you need for your customers or laying out tomorrow’s inventory, you decide to mow the lawn instead. It takes you 30 minutes.

You get back to your desk and a friend of yours calls, asking about the upcoming fishing trip next weekend. You spent an hour happily discussing plans.

Situations like this can also happen in the small business setting. Imagine that you are trying to organize shipments online and then an old friend starts chatting with you over messenger. You spend 30 minutes catching up and realize you never did get around to doing what you needed to do.
