Practical Tips for Working Remotely | Belk on Business - Episode 52 #belkonbusiness #joshbelk
Working remotely:
1) Approach life with a greater sense of discipline and focus – this means a consistency in schedule. Have a routine to your schedule. Have a morning routine – how do you start each day?
2) Get dressed – keep up your appearance. “Dress for success” – we generally are less effective in both productivity and focus when working in what we may otherwise sleep or lounge around the house
3) Have an effective means of communicating regularly with your team to ask for help and receive status updates. Schedule time to do so.
4) Be on time with virtual meetings
5) Take breaks and enjoy the change in scenery – enjoy the opportunity to take a walk, have lunch with family, work on your computer outside or at the local park
6) Guard your spirit and keep a good attitude – get off social media and the news – time block for these activities and stay away from negativity. Listen and dialog regularly with those who have good attitudes and lift your spirt. Take time to be grateful and express it to others.
