September is here, summer vacations are over and you go back to your day-to-day routine, and your job. If you work remotely or in hybrid mode, you must know how to be productive in smart working and concentrated, once you get back to work!
When summer vacations are over, we are relaxed, ready to resume working, albeit somewhat nostalgic about summer. And, if you work from home, remaining concentrated without daydreaming about Paradise beaches can be even harder. Here are a few tips on how to be productive in smart working and significantly improve your mood, once your vacations are over.
How to improve working from home and your productivity
Distractions, feeling lonely and lack of organization can make working from home hard. The solution to remain productive and motivated lies in being disciplined and responsible. Here are a few tips you should follow, if you want to work calmly and efficiently from home:
- Get ready as if you were going to the office: dressing properly (and also comfortably) can help you remain more active and concentrated during the day.
- Plan your goals for the day: write down a list of the things you must do and the main task to complete before the day ends.
- Give yourself a break: every two hours, get up, take a walk and move away from the monitor, even just for 10 minutes.
- Create a suitable work environment: you need to know how to organize your PC station to work comfortably and focused, all day long.
How do you organize a smart working station?
A well-organized work station is essential to keep your focus. If you have a free room you can use as home office, that is perfect; otherwise, choose a particularly calm and quiet corner of your home, and place the desk there. Use a comfortable adjustable chair and arrange your tools in an orderly manner.
How should you place your computer on the desk? Place the monitor and the keyboard parallel to the edge of the desk, with the monitor between 50 and 80 cm away, to avoid any strains on your neck and eyes. Remember to clean your workstation and tools often with delicate products, to avoid damaging them, such as Care+Protect multi-surface degreaser.
Keep your desk tidy and surround yourself with elements that make you happy, without distracting you too much, such as plants and photos. If possible, place your work station in front of a window or near the garden, since the weather is still nice.
What should you consider, if you work long hours at the PC?
When you work for many hours in front of the PC, taking care of your physical and mental health becomes even more important. During the day, reserve at least 30 minutes for working out. Even a walk during your lunch break can become an essential routine.
To avoid headaches at the end of the day, ventilate your home often. Air quality is paramount to your health: if you live in the city, outdoor pollution could do more harm than good. The H-PURIFIER is the perfect solution to make your domestic and work environment safer and healthier. Along with air purification, you can also set the right level of humidity, making your home a comfortable environment, from morning to night.
