I hate working from home but how to make it better

 Let’s face it this pandemic is going to go on for at least another year so if you hate working from home your going to have to embrace it instead of complaining about it. 

Here are my top 8 tips to making work at home more fun...

  1. Don’t text, face time or zoom - it’s great to see people’s faces. Do this at least once a day to see what people are up to and where
  2. Buy a nice desk and chair to make your office feel more luxury and that way you can leave your work their instead of clearing it off the kitchen table 3 times a day! 
  3. Play music whilst your working
  4. Redecorate the room you work in
  5. Always dress nicely even though your not going anywhere so you feel good and look good on the video calls. No cheating you can’t wear a shirt 👔 with underpants 🤣 pretend  your cameras always on! 
  6. Start a health kick, the time you would have spent commuting start walking, jogging or running before you start your day
  7. If you’ve run out of work start your own business in their time and get paid doing it
  8. Stay happy, healthy and feel good
