1 Set clear boundaries

One of the first steps to avoid distractions and interruptions is to set clear boundaries with your family, friends, and anyone else who might contact you during your work hours. Explain to them that you need to focus on your work and that you will be available for them at certain times. You can also use a sign, a door, or a noise-canceling headset to signal that you are busy and do not want to be disturbed. Respect your own boundaries as well and avoid checking your personal phone, email, or social media while working.

In my 16+ years of working from home experience, having clear and well-communicated boundaries among household members can help alleviate frustration for everyone. For example, if the door is closed, others know not to disturb me. If the door is open and I am in the middle of typing, the same rule applies until I either stop for a break or acknowledge the interruption. Being consistent has helped everyone in my household abide by the guidelines and everyone feels respected during the process.

2 Plan your day

Another way to stay on track with your work is to plan your day ahead and stick to a schedule. You can use a calendar, a to-do list, or a project management tool to organize your tasks and deadlines. Prioritize the most important and urgent tasks and allocate enough time for them. Break down large or complex tasks into smaller and manageable steps. Schedule some breaks throughout the day to refresh your mind and body. Review your progress at the end of the day and adjust your plan for the next day if needed.

When I have a long task list I have to carve out time to get the work done. Here are a few tips that work for me: 1.) I block chunks of time in my work calendar and protect that time. 2.) I add a list of to-do items to the calendar invite. I know exactly what I need to work on during that dedicated focus time. 3.) During this time I block notifications (teams, slack, etc.) It's easy to get distracted so turn off notifications to stay focused. ^these work for me and I hope they work for you!

Just remember to always roll unfinished tasks to the next day's "list" so that nothing falls through the cracks. Maybe that to-do takes on a different status when it rolls into day #2, so evaluating each tasks' importance based on your top priorities for the day is crucial.

When you plan your day with a to-do list, start with an empty page. No meetings. No calls. Nothing to do. Then ask yourself, "If I had nothing to do today, what would I do to affect my results a month from now?" Those are your priorities. Write down what you could accomplish today, and check off at the end of the day. Block time for them too. THEN fill in all the other stuff. Just get to the priorities first.

3 Communicate with your team

Working from home does not mean working alone. You still need to communicate with your team members and collaborate on projects. You can use various tools and platforms to stay in touch and share information, such as email, chat, video conferencing, or cloud storage. Establish regular check-ins and meetings with your team and manager to update them on your work, ask for feedback, and resolve any issues. Be clear and concise in your communication and respect the time zones and preferences of your team.

4 Eliminate distractions

Even if you have set boundaries and planned your day, you might still face some distractions from your environment, such as noise, clutter, or temptations. To eliminate these distractions, you need to create a comfortable and conducive workspace that suits your needs and preferences. Find a quiet and well-lit spot in your home where you can work without interruptions. Keep your desk clean and organized and have all the necessary equipment and supplies ready. Turn off or mute any notifications or alerts that are not related to your work. If you feel tempted to browse the web or watch a video, use a timer or a blocker app to limit your access.

5 Manage your energy

Working from home can also affect your energy levels and motivation. You might feel isolated, bored, or overwhelmed by your work. To manage your energy, you need to take care of your physical and mental health. Make sure you get enough sleep, eat well, and exercise regularly. Stay hydrated and avoid caffeine or alcohol. Find ways to relax and unwind, such as meditation, yoga, or hobbies. Connect with your family, friends, or colleagues for social support and encouragement. Reward yourself for your achievements and celebrate your successes.

When you’ve learned to manage distractions and create a productive work environment, you can easily fall into a state of flow and forget to check in with your body. I find it helpful to schedule regular breaks to move, stretch, drink water, or have a snack. When I remember to take these breaks, I find that I have more energy at the end of the day and am in a better place mentally to spend time with my family and friends.
