1
Have a Dedicated Workspace
Create a dedicated workspace within your home and keep it free from clutter and physical distractions. Clock in and out as you would in any other out-of-home job.
2
Identify Your High-Value Tasks
Instead of getting sidetracked by unimportant tasks, focus on what matters most: high-priority pursuits like self-improvement, relationship building and strategic planning. When you spend most of your time on low-stress but valuable tasks, you have found the sweet spot where productivity and performance balance.
3
Allocate Time for Deep Work
Carve out a few distraction-free hours each day to pursue your most important and challenging tasks in a highly concentrated fashion. Let your employees and coworkers know what these hours are by blocking off your schedule or marking your online status accordingly.
4
Organize Your Communication
Thoroughly familiarize yourself with all the communication and collaboration tools you have available and know their intended purpose. Practice appropriate digital etiquette.
5
Limit Your Working Hours
Don't let work seep into the rest of your life. Set a sensible schedule and stick to it. Make sure to carve out time for leisure, including socializing, exercising and pursuing your favorite hobbies.
