3 Work-From-Home Tips To Keep You Focused

3 Work From Home Tips

For certain folks, working from home is the ideal situation. However, like any job, it does not come without its challenges. When you work from it is easy to get distracted with household chores and a long to-do list of tasks that are tempting to complete. Additionally, at times it is hard to muster the motivation needed to get off the couch, turn off the TV, and focus on getting your job done. For this reason, we have come up with 3 Work from Home Tips to help you stay motivated and productive when working from home.

1. Create a dedicated office space

Create a space in which you feel comfortable working. Set up an office with a desk, computer, printer, and all your supplies and decorate the same as you would an offsite office. Having a dedicated office space allows you to close the door and concentrate solely on your work. This will allow you to be more productive since the distractions of the household are left outside the door. It also aids in organization, which will help you feel more relaxed and prepared to get the job done. Try hanging a sign on your office door to avoid interruptions from family members

2. Shower and get dressed for the day

Have you ever had one of those days when you didn’t get out of your pajamas and felt tired and sluggish all day? Showering and getting dressed for the day, like you would if you were leaving the house to go to work, can make you feel better and aid in your productivity for the day. It has been said that you should dress for the job you want, not the job you have, so try implementing this at home as you would at an offsite office.

3. Create a routine and stick to it

Your home is full of distractions. It may be tempting to throw in a load of laundry and stick dinner in the oven throughout the day. In order to avoid chores that interrupt your work, set a routine and schedule in breaks for social media and various chores. For example, taking a 10 minute break every hour will allow you to focus better and get more done during the 50 minutes of uninterrupted work.
