Working by the Clock
by Stuart Livesey
One of the big attractions for me in entering into a home based small business was the fact that I could stop living by the clock. My work day in and day out had been governed by the clock for 30 years and to be free of it was a dream come true. Suddenly I was my own master.
But just lately as the amount of business that Toni’s small business attracts has continued to grow I find myself going back to the clock to cope with the workload. These days I find myself assigning blocks of time to the tasks in front of me each morning.
Somehow that clock that I once disliked so much has now become a valuable tool.
Does that mean that somehow I’ve failed?
