[quote=Stonewall]I am attempting to go it alone as an independent. For now, I have set up my office in my home. Just curious if there are others out there who have a home office set up?

Enlarge the doors because you'll spend way too much time close to the refrigerator.

You have to make a schedule for yourself and stick to it and you have to have a lot of motivation each and every day.  You don't have a manager looking over your shoulders so it's a little easy to slack off sometimes.

Also, even if you're meeting clients throughout the week you need a place like Starbucks or some other place like that where you can take your notebook to get out and be around people once or twice a week.

As much as you grate on my nerves, that's a pretty good one, putsy.

I bet Put Face looks like that little guy in “300”- the deformed hunchback who betrays the Spartans… Dont you just want to kick him???

Blarm, I haven't seen the movie yet---don't give it away.

I never thought I would say at least Putsy/Devil's Advocate acted like an adult.  The new trolls are far worse than Put Trader.

Well that is absolutely something you need to remedy fairly quickly.

What I would do is find an accountability partner.  Somebody who does not live in your area or state and give each other a list of goals to do every month and week.  IE  This week I plan to get 100 leads and this month I plan to open up 20 accounts and raise #.
