To be at your best when you work from home, you must pair the nature of your work with the tools and environment that are most helpful to accomplish the purpose of the task. Sounds simple, but the most advanced productivity coaching is often subtle and profound.
Here are the steps:
1. Determine what kind of work do you need to get done?

- Free Day; Focus Day; or Buffer Day?
- 3 Fold Nature of Work
- Pre-Defined Tasks already on lists

2. Choose the right tool
-

3. Set up your workspace environment

4. Ask Questions
-
