Working from home might sound like a dream—until the laundry piles up, snack breaks turn into scroll sessions, and you end the day wondering what you even got done. In this episode of Operation May Reset, we’re talking about how to sharpen your focus and stay productive at home without burning out or micromanaging your entire day.

Whether you're navigating remote work with little ones nearby or just trying to stay on top of your to-do list in a quiet house, these three easy focus boosters will help you feel more accomplished and less frazzled. We’ll talk about how to create a simple work-start ritual, use the “next 3 rule,” and build natural stop points into your day—so you can actually get things done and feel good about it.

3 Takeaways from this Episode:

1. Focus starts with a simple ritual. A short, consistent "start work" habit helps signal your brain that it's time to focus—so you waste less time getting in the zone.
2. You only need to know the next three things. The “Next 3 Rule” cuts down overwhelm and helps you move through your day with clarity and purpose.
3. Build in natural breaks. Stop points keep you motivated, give your brain breathing room, and prevent burnout—especially when you're working from home without structure.
