On the last point of ‘habits’ I vote for sun salutations. Actually, if your doing it properly, sun salutations at the begining and the end of the day. I don’t always manage to do this but productivity does definately increase whenI do!

Amen to these! They definitely apply to freelancers in all fields, not just designers. I already do most of them myself as a freelance programmer and they do work wonders for your productivity (and sanity).

Great tips! It’s good to establish a routine and making a list for the next time really helps you get things done.

Enjoyed these tips, especially as I’m on the cusp of becoming freelance right now. I was reminded of friends of mine who are married and run a design studio together in the one room flat where they live. When they found they needed to distinguish being at work from being at home they started a separation regime: in the morning they’d dress in work clothes then walk around the block; in the evening they’d turn off the computers and walk the other way around the block before changing into home clothes.

Great article. Routine can be really good for being more productive, and these are great tasks to get accomplished day. I especially love and do #2 and #5. When I know what project I’m going to do the next morning I think it subconsciously floats in my brain all night and I wake up ready to work with some great ideas.
