As a creative, it's inevitable to go blank sometimes and no matter how I push myself to build more ideas, sometimes, I find inspiration someplace else. At the same time, there are also moments when I don't feel like doing so.
For many people, going a day without using their phone can be a challenge due to the many ways in which phones are used in daily life. Can you live without phone for a day?
I worked from home for 6 years. Here are my best 20 tips for setting healthy work-life boundaries in 2023: . . . ... 1. Understand that you aim to find something that you enjoy doing most of the time. This is not a cliche. It is doable. 2. Get fiber internet, a 4k camera, a microphone, and lights. It will pay dividends. 3. Separate living from the working environment. When I shut the door of my basement, that's it. 4. I have my "office" shoes. I am primed to think that work just started when I am in them. It's a neat way to divide my routines. 5. Every once in a while, go to a coffee shop or work with somebody you like for a day. Or go to the office if possible. 6. Have focused time. Book off some time on your calendar without notifications, just deep work. Google Calendar now even offers it under "focused time." 7. Turn off sounds, notifications, and other distractions. 8. Put your phone out of sight and reach when on your laptop/desktop. 9. If you work on a computer, get a standing desk. That's it. Period. Go! And get that standing mat too. 10. Figure out what calms you. Example: Sometimes, I take a shower in the middle of the day. On other days I take a nap or go jogging. 11. It's OK not to be productive. Take time off the screen. Do it often. 12. Set up times in your calendar for meals, exercise, and hobbies. 13. Try and have at least 1 day/week without meetings. Book it off. Fridays are good days for that. 14. Jam as many meetings together as possible. Keep meetings from being spread out too much. It will kill your productivity. 15. Do meetings standing. You'll finish them quicker. 16. Try not to bring any digital/office gear to your bedroom. 17. Have two computers. One for work. One for fun. 18. Have an object that helps you to decompress... I have an electric guitar + an amp. 19. Print out some useful reminders. I have a picture that says: "Be kind to your mind." 20. If you can't get away from the virtual office, do something where you have to apply your undivided attention. For example, I do MTB or a long drive to someplace. Or do anything where you can't have the internet, and that'll do. :) And now I'll disappoint you. I don't believe in a work-life balance. Yikes! You are YOU (and should be!), wherever you are at work or home. In 2023 there's no need to fake/facade things. So keep playing and discovering. And you'll find the optimal balance between you and the output (legacy) you leave behind. No need to live two lives. Live one that matters. Keep creating!
