在家(Home)工作已成为许多人的例行公事,但如果您因冠状病毒的影响而被迫(Coronavirus)在家(Home)工作,我认为这里有一些提示可以帮助您在在家(Home)工作时保持清醒和高效。我已经在家工作了几次,尤其是在有长假的时候,并且遵循所有这些对我有很大帮助。
在家工作的提示
1] 常规
我们在家里(Home)最舒服。懒得(Lazy)起床,感觉我们有一个时间世界,你需要呆在家里。但是你需要工作;你不能陷入拖延的行为。你不能偷懒。您需要的是例行公事,并且会严格遵守。从宠物到孩子再到家庭,你会受到各种各样的干扰,当然还有门铃。除非你有足够的纪律,否则你肯定不会得到报酬。
建立(Set)一个例行程序。想象一下(Imagine),除了你的办公室是隔壁房间之外,什么都没有改变。其他一切都保持不变。所以像往常一样遵循你的日常生活,在你离开工作的时候去你的办公桌上。最好的部分,你可以早点开始工作,而且不会厌倦通勤。
2] 与家人一起关注并制定规则
您需要与家人交谈并让他们参与帮助您集中注意力,除非需要,否则不要打扰。你的孩子会很高兴看到你一整天,然后是你的宠物。如果您是唯一一个工作的人,请不要参与家庭事务。完成后,接下来就是将所有内容保持在低优先级。消息、社交媒体(Social Media)、电话(Calls)和其他一切。除非涉及工作,否则让他们保持沉默。遵循(Follow)良好的数字育儿技巧(Digital Parenting Tips)。
一开始会很难,因为你是房间里唯一工作的人。它可能几乎是无声的。好吧(Well),是时候放点音乐了!
3]添加(Add)娱乐,除非它分散注意力
如果您总是想在工作时播放音乐,或者因为太安静而希望视频在后台循环播放。这是你的机会。有大量的音乐流媒体服务,其中任何一个都应该这样做。您可以使用耳机或将其放在扬声器上。任何有助于保持心情愉快且不会分散注意力的东西
4]设置(Set)专门的工作空间
是时候建造你的隔间了。如果您不习惯,请不要计划在床上工作。从互联网、桌子、椅子、扬声器以及任何可以接近您的工作设置或使其变得更好的东西,都可以直接设置。(Setup)如果超过一个人使用办公桌,您将不得不按计划与他们签订合同。
如果您的公司要求您在家工作,请检查您是否拥有(Home)在家(Home)工作所需的一切。我相信他们有预算来帮助人们解决这些情况。

5] 在线培训机会
如果您一直渴望学习新事物但一直没有时间,那么您现在拥有了。通勤时间现在可以用来学习新东西。有大量的在线教程和专业培训课程。您甚至可以考虑与办公室同事进行在线头脑风暴会议。
6]迷你休息
它们很重要。根据您的工作量,休息一下。煮咖啡,下来,走一点。十分钟的冥想或瑜伽(meditation or yoga)也不是一个坏主意。如果您不喜欢这些内容,请阅读书籍或报纸。但是,不要打开手机并开始社交。
您可以随时与家人一起休息。我相信他们会很高兴能更频繁地在家中找到你,这并没有什么可怕的。

7] 午休和小睡
我们都想这样做,现在你有机会了。我知道抵制它有多难。吃点清淡的。不要吃得过饱,但要小睡一会儿。它会帮助你得到一些休息,让你重新开始工作。设置一个闹钟,这样你就不会睡过头了。

8]晚上散步和睡觉
完成工作后,最好出去散步或慢跑。请记住(Remember),如果是通常的办公室,您要么被困在办公室参加特别会议,要么被堵在路上。用它来散步,这样你就可以睡个好觉。
你必须睡够。由于办公室就在隔壁房间,因此您不需要准时起床,因此可能会很俗气。如果您在深夜开始观看在线连续剧,那么一切都会一帆风顺。(watching online series)请记住(Remember),这个WFH不是一周的事情。我们大多数人至少会被困一个月,你需要按时拿到工资。
9]让客人远离(9] Keep Guests away)
听起来有点紧张,但既然我们都在同一条船上,最好不要聚在一起参加聚会和款待。即使有人路过,而且不紧急,你也可以礼貌地请他们晚上回来。
10]不要对自己太苛刻
所有这些提示意味着您应该像在办公室工作一样工作。但它们并不意味着你需要给自己压力。在家做所有的小事没有坏处,但它不应该影响你的工作。因此,也许您可以像以往一样享受周末假期,享受与家人在一起的时光。

10 practical tips to Work from Home for better productivity and success
Working from Home has been a routine for many, but if you been forced to wоrk from Home because of thе Соronavirus imрact, here are some tips I think can help you stay sain and productive while you work from Home. I have worked from home a couple of times, especially when there are long holidays, and following all these have helped me a lot.
Tips for working from Home
1] Routine
We are most comfortable at our Home. Lazy to get up, and it feels we have a world of time when you need to stay at home. But you need to work; you cannot get into the act of procrastination. You cannot be lazy. What you need is a routine and will follow it strictly. You will have all sorts of distractions right from pets to kids to families, and of course, the doorbells. Unless you are disciplined enough, you will not be paid for sure.
Set up a routine. Imagine nothing has changed except that your office is the next room. Everything else remains the same. So follow your daily routine as usual, and hit your home desk the time you leave for work. The best part, you can start working early, and will not be tired of the commute.
2] Focus and set rules with family
You need to talk to your family and involve them in helping you focus by not interrupting unless required. Your kid is going to be super happy seeing you all day, and then your pet. If you are the only person working, do not get involved in the home routine. Done that, the next thing is to keep everything on low priority. Messages, Social Media, Calls, and everything else. Unless it involves work, turn them silent. Follow good Digital Parenting Tips.
It’s going to hard initially because you are the only person working in the room. It might be almost silent. Well, time to put some music on!
3] Add entertainment unless it’s distracting
If you always wanted to play music while you worked, or want a video to keep looping in the background because it’s too silent. Here is your chance. There are tons of music streaming services, and any of them should do. You can use a headphone or put it on speaker. Anything that helps to keep your mood up, and doesn’t distract
4] Set up a dedicated space for work
Its time to build your cubicle. If you arent used to, do not plan to work from bed. Setup everything right from the internet, table, chair, speakers, anything that can get close to your work setup or make it better. If more than one person used the desk, you would have to sign a contract with them on a schedule.
If your company has asked you to work from Home, check if you have everything you need to work from Home. I am sure they have budgets to help people out in these cases.

5] Online Training Opportunities
If you always craved to learn something new but never had time, you have that now. The time that went to commute can now be used to learn something new. There are tons of online tutorials and professional training courses. You can even think of doing online brainstorming sessions with your office colleagues.
6] The Mini Breaks
They are important. Depending on your workload, take these small breaks. Make your coffee, get down, and walk a little. A ten-minute meditation or yoga is not a bad idea either. If you don’t like anything about these, read a book or a newspaper. However, do not turn on your phone and start socializing.
You can always take your breaks with your family. I am sure they will be delighted to find you at home more often, and there is nothing terrible about it.

7] Lunch Breaks & Quick Naps
We all have wanted to do this, and now you have your chance. I know how tough it is resisting that. Have a light meal. Do not overeat, but take a nap. It will help you get some rest, and you will be fresh to get back to work. Put an alarm so you don’t oversleep.

8] Evening Walks and Sleep
Once you are done with your work, it’s a good idea to get out for a walk or jog. Remember, if it was the usual office, you were either stuck in your office for a special meeting or in the traffic. Use it for a walk so you can get a good sleep.
You must sleep enough. Since you do not need to get up on time because the office is next room, it can be cheesy. If you start watching online series late at night, everything will go for a toss. Remember, this WFH is not a one-week thing. Most of us will be stuck for a month at least, and you need your salary on time.
9] Keep Guests away
It sounds a little tight, but since we are all in the same boat, its best not to gather up for the meet and treat. Even if anyone drops by, and it’s not urgent, you may politely ask them to join back in the evening.
10] Don’t be too hard on yourself
All these tips mean that you should work as you were working in an office. But they do not mean you need to stress out yourself. There is no harm doing all small things at home, but it should not affect your work. So maybe you can always take weekends off as you ever did, and enjoy time with your family.

Working from Home is not easy, especially when you are not used to it. There are too many distractions. There is a lot of comforts. However, under the current scenario, it’s not something you will have to do it for years, it could be months. All you need is the right routine, and support from your family to get through it. I hope the tips for working from home came in handy.
