Working from Home

Working from home promotes work-life balance, but it does not guarantee it. Setting clear boundaries between your work time and your personal time helps you enjoy the pros of working from home while avoiding the cons.

  • Use your space
  • If you don’t have a separate home office, reserve a corner of your table or a favorite chair just for work
  • You can also use lighting to signal that it’s time to focus; use a desk lamp or ambient lighting during work hours
  • Use your music
  • Create a mini-playlist of upbeat songs to transition into and out of your workday
  • Experts recommend instrumental tracks and nature sounds for work tasks that require total concentration
  • Use your outfit
  • Changing your clothing before and after work helps define the boundary between company time and personal time
  • Use your schedule
  • Even if your hours are flexible, try sticking to a consistent routine every day
  • Don’t forget to take your breaks—going for a short walk is better for stress relief than scrolling through social media
