A flexible work schedule is an important aspect of the modern workforce. It allows employees to balance the demands of their job with the demands of their personal lives, and it's a way to foster a healthier work-life balance.

However, incorporating a flexible work week into your business can be difficult — especially if it means sacrificing productivity. Here are some tips on how to incorporate a flexible work week without losing productivity:

Prioritize. Start with the most important tasks first and prioritize based on importance, not time. For example, if you are setting up new phone systems and want to get them up and running as quickly as possible, you should start by doing that task first, even if it means taking longer than expected. This will ensure that all other tasks get done on time and won't fall behind schedule.

Plan ahead. Create clear goals for each day, week or month so you know what needs to be done next at each step along the way toward achieving your goal(s). This will help you stay focused on completing tasks in order from shortest amount of time spent to largest amount of time spent (e.g., 1 hour vs. 6 hours).

Use technology effectively.

The best way to incorporate a flexible work week is with a personal network. Reach out to friends, family, and colleagues who are already working from home and ask them how they manage their time.

If you're an entrepreneur who wants to start working from home, you'll need to design your schedule around the demands of your business. This means knowing when you need to be at the office and when you can take on new projects or spend time with loved ones.

Setting up a flexible workspace can help you manage your time better. But there are a few things that you'll need to do before starting your new schedule:

1) Create goals for your work week

2) Create a plan for how much time each day will be spent on each project

3) Decide how much time you'll actually need for each task

4) Set reminders so that it's easier to stay on track with your goals.
