I like to start early when I am working from home. This allows me to be more productive and I don't get lazy while working :D

Only planning and todo lists on a daily basis. Everything must be strictly scheduled. It makes me very productive during the working hours. Oh, and no Instagram doomscrolling ;)

Proper workspace, away from all the distractions.

I’ve found that setting clear goals for each work session helps me stay motivated and focused throughout the day.

I try to limit distractions by turning off non-essential notifications on my phone and computer. It really helps me concentrate on my tasks.

Ah, it is tough for sure. My biggest challenge there is socialisation and honestly, i haven't found a solution for that.

@vaibhavdwivedi Socializing while working from home can be really tough. Maybe try scheduling regular virtual check-ins with colleagues or setting aside time to chat with friends during breaks. It can help you feel more connected and make working from home less isolating.

To stay productive while working from home, I establish a routine that mimics a regular workday, set up a dedicated workspace, and minimize distractions. I also use tools to manage my tasks and take short breaks to stay refreshed. How about you? What strategies do you use?

I use a mix of time-blocking and the Pomodoro Technique. It helps me break down tasks into manageable chunks and take regular breaks to stay refreshed and productive.

I try to avoid multitasking by focusing on one task at a time. It’s easy to get distracted at home, so I make sure to tackle one project before moving on to the next.

A mixture of things: 1) A dedicated workspace 2) Dedicated Time for work + Time blocking app (my fave is @sunsamahq) 3) Music 4) Communication with other family members about my work hours.

Its all about good environment around you i think. When you have good surroundings, then everything will be ok, and the work will go smoothly. I have recently contacted HVAC Contractor in Innisfil, ON and they installed me good HVAC, so i know what i say. It is important to work at ease you know
