Guys!
Kimberely here. Iâm wishing you all safety and wellness! đ Those of you that are working from home might be finding itâs more distracting than dreamy. Hereâs a few things that help me.
HOW TO MASTER THIS NEW âWORK FROM HOMEâ LIFE
đHave an âIâm in the Officeâ signal for others in your shared space. I like to use đ§ headphones.
đ Understand your distractions. Music đľ and TV đş in the background might work for focus sometimes but can be a distraction at others. Try setting a 1 hour đ§ limit for each and see how your productivity levels change.
đ Make LISTS. for. Everything. đ Awesome way to add accountability and not feel so overwhelmed about getting everything under the sun âď¸ complete in one day. I love the idea of scheduling times of day for each tasks. Iâm not so good at this part but i can see how beneficial it can be to getting things completed in a timely fashion. Especially when it comes to creative work.
đ Make it official! â Clock in and clock out. â° I like the app âTime Clockâ. I also use it to take proper lunch & dinner breaks, as well as two 15 min breaks to allow yourself the social media checking, personal e-mails. A moment of sunshine break, etc. & Try not to multi-task at lunch, reserve those for your 15 min breaks
đ Important! Make your workspace a different spot than your bed even if itâs the floor space next to the bed .
đ Alot yourself ONLY 1 day a week for âpajama day at workâ.
đ Avoid distracting chores ie: cleaning dirty dishes, doing laundry, social media, TV. Give them scheduled times.
đ Schedule your exercise times! And if you canât fit in the hour or 90 minute you slotted, give yourself at least an abbreviated 20 minute version. Try to decide this before beginning your workout to be sure you donât feel like your giving up in the middle of a workout.
đ Donât forget to wind down! Give yourself some âYou Timeâ at the end of the day. It can really help you be productive the following day. Just be sure to plan your bedtime before âyou timeâ to avoid binge watching or reading a book to the end.
