My Tips for Working Remotely

  1. Create a Dedicated Workspace: Set up a specific area in your home for work to help you focus and separate work from personal life.

  2. Stick to a Routine: Establish a regular schedule to maintain a sense of normality and productivity. Start and end your day at the same time.

  3. Dress for Success: Even if you’re at home, dressing as if you’re going to the office can boost your mindset and productivity.

  4. Get Out: I like to take some time to get out for an hour or two every now and then. I usually go to my local starbucks and do some work while having a coffee.

  5. Take Breaks: Incorporate short breaks to recharge. Step away from your desk, stretch, or take a walk to clear your mind.

  6. Limit Distractions: Identify what distracts you most and find ways to minimise those interruptions, whether it’s social media or household chores.

  7. Use Technology Wisely: Leverage tools and apps that enhance productivity, such as project management software and communication platforms.

  8. Stay Healthy: Prioritise your physical and mental health with regular exercise, healthy eating, and mindfulness practices.

  9. Communicate Boundaries: If you live with others, set boundaries about your work hours to minimise interruptions.
