Leading Remotely – Part 3: Tips for Productive Working – Virtually
Chad Williams, CEO of Journity share with us at a recent “virtual ministry conference” and I loved his work tips!
Working from home can sometimes just be hard. So how do we optimize our productivity?
- Whether you have “meetings” planned or not for the day – shower and put on pants! You’ll just get more done!
- Avoid time-wasters. Set up the coffee pot the night before, make a list at the end of each day for tomorrow and hit the road running!
- Change your scenery – so you can’t go into the office – does that mean you can’t take your laptop and work on the patio? Or maybe even the park? Do you have a local co-worker … meet at the coffee shop to work.
- Do take breaks. If you have to, set a timer on your phone to get up mid-morning and mid-afternoon from your desk. Perhaps download a 3-minute stretch app and break up the day every hour or so.
- Shut the door on your way out of your “office” at the end of the day and don’t go back. It will all be there tomorrow!
Was that so hard – try these tips this week and see how much better your days go!
