Proven Tips to Overcome Procrastination When Working from Home

Covid-19 has impacted all of us in such way that we have been working from home since several weeks now. While most of the offices in Gurgaon IT Park and elsewhere are shut, guess there’s no other option than to concentrate on work. When it comes to working from home, procrastinating work is something we all happen to face nearly every few days. While it’s easy for some to bounce back immediately, it certainly impacts the rest who struggle to concentrate.

Most office spaces in New TownKolkata or other metro cities are built in a way to pep up productivity and keep disturbances at bay. Here, in this blog, I have compiled a list of few tips to help you overcome procrastination while working and stay focussed:

Make a To-Do List a Night Before

When you’re done with completing the tasks for a day, it’s highly likely that you’re super energetic and contented. This is the best time to harness your adrenaline levels and make a to-do list prepared for the next working day. When your tasks for the next day are sorted, you’re least likely to procrastinate work thinking what to do.

Eat a Frog Right in the Morning

While assigning yourself tasks for the day, make sure you do the hardest task first thing in the morning. Since we all keep delaying that one task or email, doing that first will unload the burden and will keep you from dreading doing that. This will keep you active and motivated throughout the day and make you focus more on other tasks.

Block Off Your Calendar

While you make the calendar, make sure you space the tasks judiciously to allow you breathing time in between tasks. Always block your calendar in such a way that you can effectively and productively get the task done without any disturbance. Turning off social media notifications, personal calls, and other disturbances will make sure you are never interrupted in between tasks and thus, leave no room for delaying them.

Set Rewards for Yourself

Reward yourself nicely for finishing that mammoth task by treating yourself to a nice meal, binge watching a series or even relishing a long phone conversation. This will make you look forward to that reward and will pep you up to finish the task in time without procrastinating. This goes along way in keeping you motivated and making you look forward to working everyday without delaying anything.
