Do you do your best work late at night, you can schedule your work time then. But, with this new found freedom, come distracting temptations and the risk of procrastinating on work-related tasks. You'll want to make sure you have the right entrepreneurial character traits to handle this new responsibility.

More Time for Parenting and Personal Pursuits
If you feel like your job is taking up too much time, working from home could be the solution. Having a flexible schedule means you can make time for your kids and family, or pursue other interests. If you want to homeschool while running your business, you can. However, achieving work/life balance does take some planning and time management. In some cases, you may still need to arrange for childcare. 

No More Commuting or High Gas Bills
Americans spend an average of $386 per month on gas. Cutting down on a daily commute would put some of that money back in your pocket. Along with cash, you'll save time frequently wasted commuting.

Further, whereas in a job, you pay taxes on your total earning, as a home-based contractor, you can deduct your expenses first, and pay taxes on net income. With that said, it's essential to learn about deductions to ensure you're following proper tax laws. Ideally, you should consult a tax expert.

Control Over Your Work Attire
No more blazers and dress pants. No more ties or pantyhose. You can wear whatever you want in your home office. If you're most comfortable and inspired in your fluffy bathrobe, you can wear it every day if you want.

One note of caution though, work attire has been shown to correlate with productivity levels. So, just because you can wear your jammies, doesn’t always mean you should. You may find a business casual environment in your home office helps you get more done during the day.
