Episode 28: 7 Tips for Productive Virtual Work

With more and more people working virtually these days, I wanted to share a few tips that I've picked up over the years. Working from home can sound fun at first, but this isn't a snow day. 

When working from home, there are a lot of things that can limit productivity. Environmental things, and mental things. So here are a few ways you can ensure you maintain (or even increase) productivity while working virtually. 

1. Get up on time or close to the same time each day.
2. Get clean and get dressed each day (don't stay in your PJ's).
3. Keep moving throughout the day.
4. Create a semi-permanent work-space.
5. Keep in touch with a community (peers, colleagues, friends).
6. Use video whenever possible to stay connected.
7. Get a system in place for workflow and managing tasks.

Whether you're a business owner, or you work for a company, working from home requires some structure and discipline. I hope you find these quick tips helpful and maximizers to your productivity.
