Working from home has been a difficult adjustment for many of us during the current pandemic. For those struggling to be productive at home, here are some great tips a wide range of professionals have sent us on how they were able to make the most of working at home.
I’ve summarized the main points people have made as follows (for each point, a link is given to the full comment):
- Create a dedicated space to be your office (link), preferably near a window (link)
- Leave the most difficult work for times of the day where you know you work best (link)
- Changing your clothes at the end of your workday can help separate your work and life (link)
- Similarly, working in your normal professional work clothes can do a lot to put yourself in work mode (link)
- Don’t forget to get up and move around every now and then (link), and take walks outside when you can (link)
- Get rid of distractions and multitasking (link)
- Get noise-canceling headphones (link)
- Start working when you’d normally start your commute (link), not when you’d normally get to the office. Then you’ll have extra time for interruptions (link)
- Prepare your tasks the night before (link)
- Take ergonomics and your health seriously (link, link). You can consider a sit/stand desk (link)
