Tips to Make Working from Home Easier

Whether you do it because you have to or you want to, there are benefits of working at home. For instance, it might help you avoid your commute each day. But that also means it’s your responsibility to motivate yourself and get as much out of your day as you can. Staying productive and accountable will help you work from home better.

Stay on Track by Saving Time

Having a simple to-do list can keep you motivated and productive. As you put the list together, think about long-term goals, such as finishing a big project, as well as smaller goals, like how you’ll complete the big project. As you check the smaller tasks off, you will see that you are making progress. That’ll give you positive reinforcement to encourage you to keep going. The day will likely seem more manageable if it isn’t one big task.

Type out or write down the list instead of keeping it in your head. It’s hard to remember things in your head, especially when you’re also thinking about other work-related tasks. Plus, physically crossing something off the list can keep you motivated. For example, if one of your to-do list tasks is getting your medical marijuana card in Oklahoma, why not do it from home to save time? It’s easy to find a medical marijuana doctor in Oklahoma City, and you can meet with them with a video call. Even if you aren’t approved, your evaluation will be free.

Make Work Triggers

If you work at an office, getting ready to go in can help your brain prepare for work. But if you work at home, you can still make triggers that help you start your day, whether that’s reading the news, exercising, or putting coffee on. Having a dedicated workspace is another way of helping you be productive. Not anyone can be productive wherever they are. Having more structure might be just what you need to keep you motivated, whether it’s another room, a desk, or your kitchen table. That’ll tell your brain that it is time to be productive and avoid distractions.

Try to Collaborate 

It might seem like telecommuting is something done by itself, but you’ll often still be interacting with other people, whether through making decisions, meeting with a team, or getting feedback. Create ways to collaborate with your coworkers. For example, since face to face communication can help with collaboration, you might choose to use videoconferencing software. Email can be effective for sending out information, but inboxes can fill up quickly, and not everyone will see a new email right away. If you need to send a quick update to the team or ask a question, try using a chat app. 

If you’re having a more detailed discussion or need to brainstorm, you might need an official meeting. If you have an option, consider video chat methods. It’s also a great way of checking in with the team regularly. That way, you can stay on top of what others are up to, and it helps everyone maintain a rapport.
