Do you remember Alex? A while back, I wrote about my encounter with her.<\/a> She wants to align work flexibly with the rest of her life to make the most of her free time. Maximum freedom of choice is therefore incredibly important to her. Alex is a freelance content creator for a reason: “As a self-employed person, I really enjoy working flexibly in various places, which makes my network large and my inspiration endless.”<\/h5>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t

With Flexible Working<\/h2>\n

Our meeting was followed up. Because for us, Alex is the figurehead of flexible working. I was very curious to see what a day in her life looks like. By regularly looking over our customers’ shoulders, we gain inspiration for optimising our services. This way, we can facilitate your success even better.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

Flexible day start<\/h3>\n

Between 8.00 and 8.30, I arrive at my destination. I always start my day with a cup of coffee, sometimes poured for me too! Chantal, the location manager of the business centre I frequent, always stops by for a chat and never arrives empty-handed. Usually, the first half-hour is all about catching up with some familiar faces. These are also the entrepreneurs I can always turn to with questions. We sparred a bit.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>

On-site facilities are good. Such as the possibility of using meeting rooms, lightning-fast wifi and a well catered lunch. At 11 am, I usually have my ‘call hour’, specially reserved for clients with questions or scheduling appointments. At noon, someone usually walks in and invites me to join them for lunch. <\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n\n\t

Brainstorming<\/h3>\n

In fact, lunch is always the most ‘fruitful time’ of the day. There are always some challenges coming up, where everyone has a vision or answer from their own expertise. This brings so many new insights! The question, “Shall we brainstorm about it around three o’clock?” is frequently asked. From 13.00, I am ‘knee deep’ in my work again. I need someone to bounce ideas off of, later in the afternoon.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>

Getting started with new inspiration<\/h3>\n

I usually finish my on-site work at 4pm. Then I still have time to recharge or do something fun. At home in the evening, I always take a moment to prepare for the next day. Do I have physical meetings? Then I choose centrally located locations to reduce travel time. This also gives me the space to do quite a few metres early in the morning.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t

Do you have another tip for successful flexible working?<\/h2>\n

Check for yourself how you can function as flexibly as possible within your work. Of course, this is an obvious choice if you want to work flexibly, but even if you think you do, you can quickly get bogged down. You have to guard your freedom. Keep motivating yourself to meet new people and work in different stimulating places.<\/a> For that, you really don’t have to let go of that 9-to-5 mentality or give up your permanent home, as I did. Flexible working can already be a very low-key commitment to working at a cool location at least one day a week.<\/p>\n

Is it itching yet?
