Many successful people have been working remotely over the years and have found the method to be more productive than going to the office. However, the corona-virus pandemic has forced the majority of employees to work remotely now. 

While most of you might have got the hang of it, we still would like to list down the top 5 tips for improving work from home productivity that we found to be the most effective:

Structure or plan your day 

Planning your day in advance and listing down the tasks you want to accomplish in a day has a tremendous impact on productivity. Set realistic goals with achievable deadlines for maximum output. Following the same schedule as you did in the office will help in keeping the rhythm intact.

Have a dedicated workspace

It helps to have a dedicated workstation at home to help you focus better. Having your things organized at a dedicated station helps in increasing concentration thereby improving productivity. 

Minimize distractions

Limit social media activities by either switching off notifications or logging out during work hours. Try sticking to your routine and schedule activities accordingly.

Stay connected

Working remotely doesn’t mean to stay in isolation or cutting off from your colleagues. Connect with them over call and hustle! Instant messaging and video conferencing tools help you in connecting digitally with your friends and family.

Take breaks

Yes, it is as necessary as all the above-mentioned points. Take small breaks to relax and get back to your work rejuvenated. They give you the much-needed respite and also increases concentration. 

With the corona-virus pandemic still raging on, remote working is now becoming the new normal. Therefore, it’s important to pull up our socks and ensure that productivity levels don’t take a hit, whether we are working from office or from home.
