Working from home? Here's how to stay motivated


Listen Later

Working from home—it’s the dream, isn’t it? Until you catch yourself in a staring contest with the laundry pile, justifying “folding clothes” as a break, and suddenly, two hours have vanished. 

If the struggle to remain motivated and productive outside the office has been your battle, you’re definitely not alone. Just know that there are ways that truly make working from home work in your favour.

Today, I’m sharing what’s helped me overcome all the different challenges and make sure I stay productive during my work hours. I take you through:

  • Setting routines and firm boundaries
  • Crafting your personal work environment 
  • Incorporating movement and proper breaks
  • Structuring your day for success
  • Steering clear of temptations like chores or socialising
  • Finding your personal rhythm 

Over eight years, through trial, error and a bit of persistence, I’ve nailed a rhythm that suits me. What about you? How do you stay motivated and productive at home? Let’s swap tips—I’d love to learn from you!
