1 Set up a dedicated workspace

One of the first steps to staying organized while working from home is to create a space that is comfortable, functional, and conducive to your work. Ideally, you should have a separate room or area that is free from noise, clutter, and interruptions. You should also have a desk, chair, computer, and other equipment that suit your needs and preferences. Having a dedicated workspace can help you focus, separate your work and personal life, and maintain a professional image.

If you are really working from home (working being the keyword), you MUST have a separate room to work from, and you MUST keep the door closed when you are working. You also have to train your friends and family that when the door is closed, you are not home. You are at work. When I worked at home, I had a sign on my 'office' door: "UNLESS THE HOUSE IS ON FIRE OR YOU NEED AN AMBULANCE...DO NOT DISTURB!"

It’s essential to have a separate space for working! Not everyone is blessed with a spare room to use, so make a corner of a room dedicated to your work area, buy/make a privacy screen and let everyone know that when it’s up - not to disturb you! Then ensure you have the right ergonomic system in place for your posture- this is essential for your long term health Then take regular breaks to stretch, set these into your daily planner and your productivity will increase dramatically ??

2 Establish a routine and schedule

Another way to stay organized while working from home is to have a regular routine and schedule that you follow. This can help you create a sense of structure, discipline, and accountability. You should set a clear start and end time for your workday, as well as plan your tasks, goals, and priorities for each day and week. You should also include breaks, meals, exercise, and social activities in your schedule to balance your work and well-being. Having a routine and schedule can help you manage your time, avoid procrastination, and achieve your objectives.

You have to maintain a schedule blocking out the most important things that must be done. If it’s not on your schedule then it’s not as important as you those items that have already been scheduled.

I put everything I need to do for the week on my calendar. This allows me to organize my meetings and most important tasks. I even schedule the times I will work out or go for walks. This allows me to build out my week in advance and include all of the things I want to get done (work + personal). Once I have everything scheduled, it is much easier to be productive and get everything done throughout the week.

I use Google Calendar to schedule my tasks and meetings, including personal items. Additionally, I keep a timer on my desk set for 60 minutes, which reminds me to take a break and stretch my legs.

3 Use tools and systems

To stay organized while working from home, you also need to use some tools and systems that can help you track, manage, and streamline your work. For example, you can use a calendar, planner, or app to organize your appointments, deadlines, and reminders. You can also use a project management, collaboration, or communication tool to coordinate with your team, clients, and partners. You can also use a filing, backup, or cloud storage system to store and access your documents, files, and data. Using tools and systems can help you reduce clutter, improve efficiency, and avoid errors.

4 Declutter and tidy up

Another tip to stay organized while working from home is to declutter and tidy up your workspace and home regularly. This can help you create a more pleasant, spacious, and organized environment that can boost your mood, creativity, and productivity. You should get rid of any items that you don't need, use, or love, and store or donate them. You should also clean and sanitize your desk, keyboard, mouse, and other surfaces. You should also make your bed, do your dishes, and put away your clothes. Decluttering and tidying up can help you save time, space, and energy.

5 Set boundaries and expectations

One more tip to stay organized while working from home is to set boundaries and expectations with yourself and others. This can help you avoid distractions, interruptions, and conflicts that can affect your work quality and satisfaction. You should communicate clearly with your family, friends, and neighbors about your work hours, availability, and needs. You should also respect your own limits and goals, and avoid overworking, multitasking, or checking your phone or email constantly. Setting boundaries and expectations can help you focus, respect, and protect your work and personal life.

Setting boundaries is important but also know that's it's ok if work sometimes gets more time, while other times your personal life get more. Boundaries can be flexible when it's needed.

When I'm working... - I set my iphone to 'focus' mode - I have instrument music playing - I have my desktop timer set to 60 minutes (mostly). My clients know my working hours, when to expect a respond, and to book a meeting if they need to chat via Zoom.

Working from home can become isolating and there are only so many virtual conversations one can have. Part of setting your routine should include one or two face to face meetings per week or time aside for networking or a social lunch.
