What's the hardest part of working remotely for you?

And also my cat...

@weronika_andrzejewska haha I feel you, I have a cat too!

@weronika_andrzejewska Hey I'm building an app to help deal with distractions - any chance you'd be keen to try it? My website is fastasarocket.com

@weronika_andrzejewska I'm with you on that one. The kids are distracting. Having more than 1 helps as they can play work with each other. The noise level sometimes is just crazy. Also: How loud should a fight be, before you get up and check what is going on?

@cameronbogatez looks awesome, checking it out! :)

@richardesigns I can relate. Especially not knowing when to stop (sometimes too early, sometimes too late).

@richardesigns Would it be useful to put your tasks on your calendar? So, for example, you decide that you want to focus on your tasks from 12pm to 6pm, and all your tasks get sequenced within that time, you can just look at what's on your calendar and follow it. Same for your team.

@jozshuszi apparently there is this magical office somewhere in one of those progressive places like Sweden where the desks are hoisted up and out of reach by a pulley system at precisely 5pm. I like this idea!

@nyootron maybe ! The problem described here in my reply is more about the fact I get too much done in a day and simply don't know when to stop. If my calendar said 'stop now' I would ignore it. There is little 'at home' to give you that cue to change contexts, especially in Lockdown when there is naff-all to do socially I think, well, I'd rather add value to my project than I would watch netflicks. Do you use your calendar in this way? Super intesting. :-)

@richardesigns We actually built our product to do this for teams. You can check it out -> Nirvana.Work Marc Andreessen uses his calendar like this though -> https://a16z.com/2020/09/07/on-p...

@n_shikh Makes sense - an office can be a less cluttered space to work with less distractions and there's something to be said about the way other people influence you when they are hard at work. I'm curious if my app could help you improve your concentration at home? My website is fastasarocket.com

@akos_farago completely agree.

@masonhipp good for you, I'm still experimenting how to manage my time and be fairly productive, it takes time but overall, I like remote too.

@aleksandra_vovchenko I got two puppies during quarantine, so..... I feel you lol

@haley_johnson1 two puppies might be a nightmare :D How do you cope with them?

@aleksandra_vovchenko Haha the first month was ROUGH but once they were potty trained it became a lot easier. The one bonus of getting two pups is that they constantly play and entertain each other! But the cuteness makes it so hard to focus some days 😂

@cica_laure_mbappe I feel that. I have problems with my internet too, it's frustrating...
