Ah, the much-desired, much-envied perk of working from home. We all want it, but can we all handle it?
An unproductive homebody myself, I've gone and found tips on how to work from home (and not get fired in the process).
1. Set your alarm clock for the same time you would if you were going into work. I mean it.
2. Get dressed in the morning, heels and all.
3. Organise your week and days in a planner pad on your desk.
4. Go a step further and make a checklist in your notebook of everything you want to accomplish that day.
5. Set up your work area to mimic your desk in the office, making sure pens and paper are always handy.
6. Ensure you have the right lighting. So you can, you know, see your work.
7. Sort your clutter with a desk organiser that doesn't hurt your eyes to look at all day.
8. But if you must crowd your desk with stuff, make them plants.
9. Wear noise-cancelling headphones — to get you in the zone, or simply block out the world.
10. Prepare healthy snacks in bento boxes, so you're not taking up precious time cooking in the middle of the day.
11. And finally, stay hydrated with a bottle tracking how much water you're drinking — which, let's be honest, is probably not nearly enough.
