Views from my office – January 2018, part 2

Creating a winning career from home opens up so many possibilities. You can work anywhere you want, at any time you want.

The best work from home office

Your work from home office is wherever you choose, whenever you choose.  You can prioritise your family, your work, your chores, and your ‘life admin’ based on the needs of you and your family, and whatever your circumstances at the time.

I was sick earlier this month. That’s a problem in a 9-5 job. Yes you can take sick leave, but it’s a bad look just after Christmas and when the kids are on holidays.  No stress for me though, I stayed home mostly. I still managed to get work done out and about, but it was on MY terms. When I felt like it.  Writing about what felt right.  And when I’d had enough, I stopped.  Nice.  When I didn’t feel like writing, I listened to videos while I was out and about.

Work at home entrepreneurs do need to prioritise, plan and work hard to achieve results.  The great thing about it is that you can do it anywhere.  In any part of the world.  All you need is a laptop and internet connection.

Here are some of my office locations this January.

One of our favourites – St Kilda Beach

We are lucky to live in a beautiful part of the world. So we really make the most of it. Who wouldn’t want to work overlooking this glorious city? I love the beach and the palm trees.  And the kids adore it down here.

We have a winner!

A multitude of skateparks

It wouldn’t be school holidays without us skatepark hopping and spending hours upon hours (upon hours ….) at every skatepark known to humankind.

We pack the car and off we go.  We have it down to a fine art now.  I have mega handbag ready and waiting with everything I need!!

Bonus: Beautiful weather.  We did have to cut our stay short due to a minor injury and ripped jeans that were only an hour old.

This one was a new one we discovered thanks to google.  Hours of fun then stopped at a wave pool on the way home.  Summer is truly the greatest here!!

One of our favourite short holiday destinations – Anglesea

Anglesea is on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia, and is a little piece of heaven.  We try to visit when we can, and we always have a relaxing and fun time.  The kangaroos like to visit each morning, and this year we made friends with a couple of cockatoos!

Jobs from home

The upsides: Kangaroos, kookaburras, cockatoos and singing crickets. Beach, pool, ice cream, happy kids. It doesn’t get much better than this.

The downsides: Dodgy wi-fi, no coffee.  All in all I’m not complaining though!!

 

You too can enjoy a home office from wherever you want, whenever you want.

  1. You’re very lucky to have such a great view. I work from the comfort of my own living room but currently searching for a bigger and better house, one with an office. I’m in New Zealand and had no idea how beautiful Australia was! Thanks for sharing.

    • Hi Francine, we don’t go near the big male ones!! The little ones like in the picture are OK. If we see a big male one we just leave them well alone. Whilst I’ve never seen an aggressive one, we have been told that the male ones on heat can get aggressive.

  3. I must make another trip to Victoria – only saw it in passing on our drive to Tasmania. I really want to drive the Great Ocean Road! I currently work at my dining table, however, have laptop, will travel and take it when my son has appointments! I must admit missing the kanagaroos that used to congregate in my area – so much for urban development! One day my view, when I’m working, will be from my verandah, over my acreage, trees, listening to the birds……better get back to it!

    • Hi Megan, thanks for stopping me and leaving me a comment! I’m often at my dining table too (although at this very moment I’m at a children’s play centre and it feels like it’s about 40C in here. The kids faces are red and my laptop is about to have a meltdown!

      Your view sounds amazing – looking out over an acreage? Wow. I do love hearing the birds as I’m working too.

      Anything thanks for stopping by and I wish you all the best.
      Cheers
