I have been working from home since I started working only! If you have been a regular follower of this blog or me (on my social media, obviously), you must be knowing that I am a full-time writer (author & blogger), a motivational speaker and an entrepreneur. My work demands either a lot of desk work (such as writing, taking mentoring sessions on phone, editing photos/videos, online workshops, et al) or back to back travelling. Although I do step out to work in cafes and cute bistros but I prefer working from home in my own zone where all of my items of utility are available.
I get a lot of questions about ways to make work from home work easy because due to pandemic, almost everyone of us are now working from home. While some people have adjusted to this new norm, some still find it difficult to cope up with. But don’t worry! Here are 4 ways to make work from home work easy for you. Let’s see what these 4 ways are!
1. Have a dedicated space to work
This is very important. Obviously when you feel tired or bored, you can sit on your couch or a bean bag and work for a while, but for longer durations. Have a dedicated space to work and treat it like your office cabin. Keep all of your work stuff like journals, files, documents, stationary, HDDs, etc. in one place in your work space, so that you don’t have to get up in between the work and break your pace.
2. Communication is important
While working from home, we often don’t feel like to communicate with the team members or the staff. We often try to finish the work or solve the query by our own self rather than communicating as we feel lazy to communicate which results in consuming more of our time than usual. Communication is the key. Talk to the concerned person and get the thing resolved or seek help in brainstorming, this will save your time as well as energy.
3. Keep your to-do list handy
Maybe you can stick it on your wall in front your work chair. This will keep you reminding you to-do pending tasks and will make it easier to check those day goals off.
4. Fix up your time
Best way to make your work from home easier is to fix up your time to work and also your time-off. Don’t think like, ohh it’s work from home, I’ll do it later etc. Finish your work within the timeline that you have set for yourself.
Obviously, you are working from home and subconsciously, you are a bit relaxed and no matter what strict guidelines you set for yourself, you will not 100% follow it. But at least you can start with some. Treat your home work space like office and behave accordingly.
The easiest way to make work from home work easy for you is to focus on the work and not the place. Hope this helps!
