“One test of the correctness of educational procedure is the happiness of the child.”
~ Maria Montessori
Now, the principles in this series are very simple and can be applied to your work quickly and easily, as long as you are willing to do them.
In a nutshell, this series first teaches you how to become an effective employee who is self sufficient and can work around 2 to 10 times faster than the average office employee.
Once you have mastered these fundamentals, you will be taught how to further increase your value to your company in order to give yourself extra bargaining leverage for when you make your request to telework.
Next, you will begin to take steps in order to accustom yourself to teleworking and also to obtain further proof of your ability to telework. This will be important when you make the first step to full time teleworking by requesting a part-time teleworking agreement.
Once you have successfully obtained a part-time teleworking agreement and have shown increased productivity over the course of a month or two since doing so, you may then make the push to request a full time teleworking agreement on a trial basis.
Basically what you are trying to do is show your company that you work better as a teleworker and improve company productivity by teleworking. That’s all there is to it. The hard part, is actually believing that it can be done, and this will require you to reassess what you believe is and isn’t possible in your work.
If you’re still having a hard time believing it can be done, you’re probably going to feel this way until you actually manage to do it. Until then, all I ask is that you have some faith and follow the instructions in the series.
Seriously, the worse that could happen is that nothing happens, and you’re right were you would’ve been if you did nothing.
The best case however is you become a full time teleworker whereby you’ll learn to deal with a whole new set of day to day problems like, “What do I do with all the extra time?”
