I've always thought that the same discipline needed to work remotely, is the same to start your own company. When you start a company, you have the same isolation, lack of coworkers for socialization, and no boundaries between work and home.

It also requires you to be a self-starter.

I've been working remotely since 2007. Thew few times I've had client visits reminds me all over again why I hated working in an office.
