This is always true but now it’s even truer. If you think long term, you prepare for moments like this, well at least in theory. If you don’t, this gives you good incentive to. But if you’re stuck in this situation unwittingly, I’m afraid you’re just going to have to buck up and prepare for the long haul. Be more mindful of your spending, and keep to yourself more. Working from home isn’t so bad if you set yourself time windows to complete certain goals within. Make sure your office is all set up well, including your desk and chair, and then get to work creating stuff!! It’s a good excuse to.
