Working From Home Tips & Tricks
Are you working from home for the foreseeable future? Luckily, I’ve been working remotely for quite some time, and I have some useful tips and tricks I’ve learned along the way.
Create a Workspace: This is crucial while working out of the home. I’ve found that it helps separate your home life from your work life, and gives you the ability to “shut down” by walking away from your dedicated workspace. Get creative, it doesn’t have to be a full home office set up!
Use Video Conferencing: Luckily we have many tools to allow us to connect with others virtually, and taking advantage of video conferencing can help you feel more connected to clients and co-workers while you are physically separated. Bonus: you can set up a happy hour with your friends once the clock strikes 5 pm!
Stick to a Routine: Just because you’ve gained a few extra hours in your day now that you’re not commuting doesn’t mean you’re expected to work 24/7. Be sure to log on and log off at your normal work hours.
Get Outside: When you can, go for a walk around the block, and change up your scenery. It’s important to step away and get out of the house when applicable.
I hope these tips help you as we all navigate this new normal together! Stay safe and healthy, everyone!
