How do you fight procrastination when working remotely?

I make sure to make breaks to breaks to recharge. A quick walk or stretch can reset my focus, so I don't procrastinate out of frustration or burnout.

I try to treat remote work like an office job. I dress for the day, set up a dedicated workspace, and avoid lounging around. It helps me stay focused.

I set small goals and work accordingly. I challenge myself quite often.

I find breaking my tasks into smaller steps really helps. It's easier to start when the task doesn't feel so overwhelming.

I get my hardest task done first. Once I tick that off, the rest of the day feels easier, and procrastination isn't tempting.

Even if it's a corner of your room, having a designated workspace helps signal to your brain that it's time to work. 🥰

It’s all about minimizing distractions. I use apps to block social media during work hours, so I'm less likely to get sidetracked.

I find it helpful to think about a work day in terms of tangible objects as opposed to hours spent. And within that, identifying a big project that you absolutely must get done that day is a helpful practice. There's a book called "The One Thing" that is helpful in thinking about this.

Don't Be Too Hard on Yourself.

I stick to a consistent schedule, including wake-up times, work hours, and breaks. This helps create a sense of structure and discipline :)

Understand what is behind your procrastination, usually it’s not the task itself but fear of failure, distractions or not finding any meaning in the task

I have an unlimited gym subscription and go there almost every day. On weekdays, it has really helped me build discipline. I also make an effort to dress up nearly every day and work from quiet cafés, usually in 4-hour sessions, and 4 hours from home!

If I'm struggling with distractions try creating a dedicated workspace that's separate from my relaxation area.
