I leave the house numerous times a day, sometimes just to get out and take a walk or something, but fact is when we are working, we dont just stop and go.

It takes me a couple hours to do my emails sometimes, and ive had family call and need a ride or something and ive told them I had to do somethings first.

simple as that, I do not drop everything I am doing to come pick up someone because their car broke down etc... in fact, I told they they shold have "AAA" like I do... most of the time when family calls I am in ICQ message or discussing something with client, no way im just going to say "sry gotta go afk we discuss money later" LOL

and if im designing or in "design mode" it takes me a few minutes to snap out of it, i usually have music on LOUD and in my zone and focused, cant just stop, gotta decompress.
For me the most amount of work i have to do every day is check my stats and return emails. I spend 2 hours a day in the gym and the rest of my time doing whatever i feel like. But obviously its different for everyone, but i like the freedom i would hate being under the same restrictions as a normal job but stuck in your house all day.

Anyway because you work from home you are able to go and do something where as the normal person if they just walked out of their workplace they would get fired. This is the reasoning why people used to ask me to do stuff and i agree to an extent. But if you are honest if you really wanted to when someone asks you to go do something for 10 minutes you could, think how much time you spend on gfy?
