Working at home can pose as unproductive and unorganized because of all the freedom it comes with. That said it doesn’t have to be like that. It’s much easier to work in an organized space than an unorganized one. Here are a few tips to stay product and organized while you work from home.
1. Create a designated workplace: Set up a desk or table in a quiet area of your home where you can focus on work. Make sure you have all the supplies you need within reach. This makes it easy to get access to everything you’ll need for your work while also staying focused with little to no distraction.
2. Stick to a routine: Wake up at the same time every day, freshen up and get dressed at the same time and keep this consistent throughout the week. This will help you stay focused and productive. It’s easier to stay productive when you follow a routine because your body automatically adjusts to the routine.
3. Take breaks: It’s important to take breaks throughout the day to stretch, move around and give your brain a rest. The Pomodoro technique is pretty effective. You work for 25 minutes and take a 5 minutes break. This helps you get a lot of work for a long period of time without feeling tired.
4. Use a To-Do-List: It helps to write down your tasks for the day in the order in which you plan to o them. This helps you stay on track and avoids feeling overwhelmed by the amount of work you want to do.
5. Minimize distractions: Phone notification can pose as a very serious distraction when you’re trying to get work then. It’s easier to get work done when your phone is no buzzing every few minutes. Turning them off when you’re trying to get work done can really help you stay focused and more productive. The same applies to unnecessary tabs on your computer.
Following these tips doesn’t guarantee you’ll be hundred percent productive when working from home but it’ll definitely improve your focused and help you get more work done.
