Some differences between a flat change at home and one "on the road."

1. You likely will not have ants biting you!

2. You can find shade.

3. You will have a bench or something to sit on instead of sprawling on the ground or wearing out a tired body trying to balance.

4. When you have to go to the bathroom, you have one handy.

5. If it is burning hot, you can conveniently take a break.

6. If you screw up and immediately get a blow out because you seated the tube wrong, or a leak because you damaged the tube, well - you are already home!!

7. You will lkely use your floor pump instead of a little tiny thing requiring maybe 200 pumps.

So, practice at home on the important details, because when you get a flat "on the road" you are going to have distractions. Knowing the steps will make it immensely easier.
