  • A dedicated space

Dedicated workspace can help you keep several distractions away. Home workers can often be seen thrown on a couch/ sofa, stuck to TV and laptop in their arms. This can even lead to missing your deadlines and later put you in state of pressure.

One of the most common reasons of not submitting your deliverables is due to distractions which are caused due to not having a dedicated corner to work.

  • Take healthy breaks

A healthy 10-min break after every 90 minutes of the work can promise you best productivity. A short break or relaxation to your brain and body can win best results.

Try doing some breathing exercises, walk with pet around, wash some used utensils or anything and see the results.

  • Avoid lunching at desk

Honestly, this is what most of you do while working from home. Having lunch or light snacks at your desk is not a good idea. One major reason is that you will remain seated for longer durations. Having lunch can be a good excuse of having a break from being in same position and work.

Also, you don’t even enjoy your food at such position. And, who on the earth would not love to enjoy their food? So, prevent the burnout and take breaks!
