Due to the exceptional situation we are all experiencing, telework has become a must for many companies around the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Working remotely means your home is now also your office, which can be quite challenging. Usually, you get up, go to work and then come home to switch off, relax or socialize. But, when you are working from home it is harder to separate the work environment from your home environment.<\/p>\n

Additionally, if you are living in one of the countries that is in lockdown, being trapped at home for a long time without socialising can be lonely, frustrating and boring, so here are some helpful tips to keep you motivated while in work time and also some ideas to help you keep your spirits up in your non-work time too!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Working environment<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Create a work space:<\/strong> Having a dedicated place to work helps you get in the state of mind to work. If you don\u2019t, it can stop you having boundaries between home life and work life. Choose a place that you can use as a dedicated workspace, if you have flatmates or a partner who is also working from home, create a shared office space. If you don\u2019t have a room that is an office in your house\/flat you could use the dining table or the kitchen table.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Work routine<\/strong><\/p>\n

Keep the same work schedule:<\/strong> Try to ensure your daily routine is the same as your office schedule. Keep the same regular meetings (although they will now be online calls). Start and finish at the same time you would normally work.<\/p>\n

Daily to-do list:<\/strong> Before starting work create a to-do list for that day to keep you focussed. It is recommended that you do the one task that you are not looking forward to doing FIRST, for example writing that tricky email, etc. By completing the task you\u2019re dreading the most, once it is done and out of the way it is not hanging over you all day. Just imagine how happy you\u2019ll feel afterwards and all fired up to work on the tasks you do enjoy!<\/p>\n

Divide your day into shorts sprints:<\/strong> This is called the Pomodoro Technique<\/a>. When faced with any large task, break the work down into short, timed intervals (called \u201cPomodoros\u201d) that are spaced out by short breaks. This trains your brain to focus for those short periods. Choose a task to be accomplished, then:<\/p>\n
