Work Hard but Don't Isolate Yourself !

This is an time of great paradox : Globalisation on one hand and Isolation on the other hand. Multinationals ask their employees to work from home. It reduces costs and increases productivity. At one time colleagues were an important part of the job. They became friends, Sunday barbecues were held, children grew up together. Now, you sit in front to the PC and work…alone.

A home-trainer is installed, Yoga books bought, 7 Steps to Meditation is studied. Sure, when you already work at home, why leave the house and drive miles to get to a gym ? Internet has the answer to everything, you have access to the largest encyclopedia in the world. Hungry? Here comes the Pizza Man. You can even start enjoying the pleasures of cooking.

Statistics show that more and more people live on their own; some by option, others not. It is so easy to stay in this little cocoon of safety and comfort. You don’t need to leave the house. Everything you need can come to you. Home Businesses appear like mushrooms, there are hundreds of affiliate marketing opportunities for you.

So at the end of the day, you work at home for your boss and then continue to have your own home business. Maybe you work in a big office, but isolated in your little room; you go home, have a bite and get to your home business. You might be a full-time affiliate marketer and spend hours a day changing your site, writing, blogging etc.

Working at home has great advantages…. wouldn’t I be a home working woman myself ! I did however start feeling the necessity of going out more. Over the last few days I received some calls which made me think. “Are you still alive, we haven’t seen you in ages”, “How about the round of golf we were supposed to have 3 weeks ago” , “Remember me? I am your partner”….

So enjoy your home business, work hard at it, love it, but don’t isolate yourself ! Give as much as you can to your family or partner. Go out and meet with people, socialize, practice team sports. Have lunch with a friend. One of the greatest treasures in life is human contact.
