One of the reasons that we become freelance writers or freelance graphic designers or virtual assistants and other work at home is so we can have a personal life.  We can pay more attention to our kids and our families and things like that.  But sometimes something happens where we need to give our attention to our family and it is really important BUT we also have to get work done for clients.

So, we try to arrange time for our work. But that thing keeps popping into our heads.  We’re worried or concerned or anxious.  We feel like we should be giving it our full attention.  We want to be there but not getting work done isn’t an option?  So what do you do?

I haven’t come up with a good solution to this yet.  I’ve tried to separate the two things but it’s easier said than done.  And the trouble is that even if I deal with the situation today, I know it will come back again.

So, I’m asking your advice – how do you keep personal distractions from interfering with your freelance career?
