I've found that, for me, this has been the best solution for everyone in the house because I'm not infringing on the kids time during the day and I'm not ignoring the Hubs when he comes home in the evening! As for naps during the day - I wish!! But I have to admit that I do sometimes have an espresso or some type of energy drink in the middle of the day if I'm feeling "slumpy." Generally speaking, though, as long as I have at least 5 or 6 hours of sleep, I'm good. Welcome Nami!

I know this sounds stupid but do you need a nap during the day or do you get wired on coffee? Thanks for the advice – it seems early morning is the most logical time to get serious writing time in.

Currently, the bulk of my online income is from writing. I write web content for various sites and I do paid product reviews. I also sell ebooks and am working on some other products and programs that will launch late this summer. After I recieved my certification in Hypnotherapy, I decided I wanted to do small business coaching for women since that is what I kept getting the most questions about from friends. I had a small but successful concierge service that I started in New York and then when I moved to California I started a pet-sitting company as well as working as a mystery shopper, independent merchandiser, call center operator and editor from home. So, as you can see, I had a LOT of home-based business advice to share! :-) If I can be of any help to you in your quest for multiple streams of income, just let me know! Hi Carol,

I think all of us that dream about one day having the freedom to work from home are not aware of all the challenges that we may encounter at first as we try to figure out a plan. I will tell you though that I have found that waking up early really works whether you or working in or out of the home. There is just something about starting the day off early and on the right foot that works. Sometimes that means you have to change things around a little in your schedule, but it is amazing how much productivity can come from those early morning hours. Tisha: Interesting post.
