clarification on part-time vs full-time freelancer

edited Dec 9, 2013 at 12:52

I have been freelancing full-time for a few years and have quiet office away from home but am easily distracted with (for example):

keeping up with news in my industry
staying current in my field of expertise
over delivering on projects
building credibility on work related forums and social networks
email
providing free advice to clients
research
in general, doing too many unbillable hours for clients that they often aren't even aware of

This is especially true when I don't have clear deadlines.

As a freelancer, how can I stay motivated and focused to ensure my billable hours are in sufficient proportion to my unbillable hours?
