For millennials, what’s not an occupation is a fashion trend. In the mornings - toasts with avocado, at lunch - coffee in a cozy cafe with important colleagues, dinner only after visiting the exhibition. But one of the main traditions that most modern girls strive for is the ability to work without being tied to one place. But so that you do not feel sad and lonely in your own apartment, it makes sense to establish some useful traditions and adhere to them regularly.

Heroine I collected several life hacks with which you can improve the quality of life with remote work.

1. Demonstration of their work

If you spend most of your time at home, it may seem to you that you have absolutely nothing to post on social networks. But recently, a new motivating trend has appeared on Instagram: to publish your daily to-do list in stories, with marks of how much you have already done. This will help you to be responsible for the tasks that are facing you, get rid of procrastination and even learn to set achievable goals. In addition, your subscribers can tell you several solutions to current problems, not to mention the fact that an open conversation about what you are struggling with allows you to establish contact with others.

You can also publish a few drafts and drafts that are not confidential information of your company, so that people close to you begin to understand a little better what you are doing.

2. Varied breakfasts

One of the main advantages of working from home is the ability to cook healthy food for yourself, rather than eating in cafeterias or brought cold sandwiches. Due to the fact that you do not waste time on the road, you can spend a little more time preparing a green smoothie or omelet with a lot of ingredients.

Do not be tempted to lie in bed for an extra half hour, flipping through ribbons in social networks, and spend time trying to repeat some unusual recipes. The food you eat for breakfast creates a mood for the whole day, so the more love you put into this process, the more energy you get.

3. Break for a walk and stretching

Your habit of working hard, especially if you are away from the team, can harm the way you take care of yourself throughout the day. In the office, people around you can remind you to go for a walk, pour yourself coffee and go on a symbolic smoke break, even if you don’t smoke. But if you do your best to finish an important project as soon as possible, in tension you will forget about the importance of a break.

Set a timer on your phone that reminds you that it’s time to reach out, drink some water and go around the room. Interrupt your work every hour for at least five minutes to stop looking at your laptop or tablet. Use this time not only to sit back, but also for a few simple asanas. After some time, you will find that this tradition helps you focus faster, formulate new ideas and get rid of procrastination, which makes you generally feel less tired in the evenings.

4. Real day off

Even modern girls who are worried about constant development, it is extremely important to maintain a balance between work and personal life. If you work from home, you need to have a clearly defined weekend, vacation, and even a work schedule throughout the day. After you have completed the tasks for today, you should completely turn off notifications, stop checking email and even mentally click on the “pause” in thinking over new parts of the project.

If you have the opportunity to interrupt right in the middle of the day, set aside an hour in which you will not touch the phone or computer. At this time, arrange meetings with friends, go to Pilates or shopping, or draw some of your desires in a sketch notebook.

5. Order food

Life is too short to neglect such pleasures. If you want to relax on the weekend from an endless routine of work-cooking-cleaning, order a festive dinner. Pizza, rolls, vegetarian delights - their cost is not as high as you might think, but you will get enough pleasure and energy to charge the next week. Use this tradition as a way to celebrate your small victories, celebrate your efforts and what you achieve every day, working hard and earning for yourself and your desires.
