How To Transition From A Traditional 9-5 On-site Job To Home Based Job – Chapter 3

There are lots of reasons why people transition from a regular 9-5 job that requires you to sit in an office to a home-based office where you don't have the constant threat of looking busy in case your boss walks in.
