Working from home often sounds like a blessing to those who have to get themselves to the office day after day, but it’s a fact that you can easily fall off the wagon when working from home, especially if you’re doing it alone. There’s nobody to set up some structure so you have to do it yourself.
Set Rules
It’s important to limit distractions in any way you can. Ban yourself from opening social media or Netflix if you’re tempted to do so during the work hours and leave your phone in the other room if possible.
Working Hours
Just because you can work whenever you want doesn’t mean that you should. If you don’t set a specific time for starting and ending your workdays, you’ll likely find yourself at the desk most evenings and even nights.
Block Time
Separate your days into blocks of time, based on the tasks you need to accomplish and make sure to stick to that schedule. Don’t allow yourself to do anything else during the time blocked for a certain activity such as replying to emails.
