Make it fun, there is no one to tell you how you should work.
Crank up your music or have your favorite program on while you work.
If you have a laptop, sit out in the garden and enjoy those beautiful days.
Whatever makes you happy do it, it is your choice now.
Once you have completed your daily tasks do something for yourself.
Whatever makes you happy, enjoy life and the ability to control what you do each day.
