You think sitting in front of a computer is a job?

Let me guess, please. You might be sitting there with a lot of work to do, but you decided to take a break and read one or two blogs or posts? Of course, I didn't want to blame you-because I was very tardy, half-hearted,

But I have a very realistic caveat about these situations.

If you are a freelance professional, your income depends on your productivity. So basically, the more you do, the more you get. Very simple. However, in reality, it can be very easy to deceive you (especially when you are working with a computer) and make you feel like you're sitting there, and you're working. I found someone spending a lot of time on the job, and I'm talking about a lot of it, but when I asked him how much work was done this day, it didn't seem to have been much of a success. Why is that? What is the reason that they spend so much time working but not accomplishing so much? That's because they're fooling themselves into believing that where they're doing is working-though there's no doubt that there's no work.

Freelancers are in a very special situation for the rest of the world. The rest of the time is "neutral" and how much they earn depends on the length of time they are sitting there, regardless of what they actually do. During the hours allowed, the hourly rate is equal, and even if the hourly rate is 0, there will be no change in the remuneration paid for these hours. This is a flaw because, by doing so, employees who are paid by the hour do not have a real incentive to do their job in an efficient way, and in fact they are encouraged to finish the task longer than expected, because their real income will increase.

However, for those of us who calculate income by project, the situation is quite different.

We strive to improve our work efficiency and to accomplish our task. We have a huge incentive to get the job done quickly because we're fixed, but the actual time spent on the job is not fixed. In other words, the higher our efficiency, the more we gain. This particular situation is also a problem for the use of a person's effective time. For example, you can't do enough work every day, it's your problem, and you have enough motivation to get home. I think we all have this kind of time, we can't find enough motivation at work, this week's mission is over, we owe a bunch of tasks, we have to pile it up next week (just like in government agencies).

As the Spider-Man Uncle Ben said:

• The greater the capacity, the greater the responsibility.

I think, for freelancers, you can change a little:

• The greater the responsibility, the more procrastination.

The reason I'm trying to say this is because most of the time you're sitting at a computer table, banging on the keyboard, that doesn't mean you're working, or you're productive. True spiritual concentration lasts only a few hours a day, so you have to make the most of the hours and the rest can be lost.
