One of the advantages of working from home is that you can concentrate on doing what you enjoy. However most home-workers find that there are a few unavoidable tasks they absolutely hate doing.

Common examples include:

• Doing The Accounts
• Chasing Payments From Debtors
• Pursuing New Business
• Backing Up The Computer Hard Disk
• Filing Documents
• Tidying The Office & Emptying The Bins

Don't fall into the trap of putting these tasks off until the end of the day, end of the week, or end of the month.

Spend a few minutes at the beginning of each day completing those necessary but unpleasant tasks. If you do this regularly you'll find that the jobs you hate will almost take care of themselves - leaving you to spend the rest of the day engaged in your more favourable business activities.
