How to be more effective working remotely.

[Queentoshi]

Working remotely is now a common thing, and some persons may quickly choose that option of work if offered by a company. Working remotely can become as hectic even more as working in the office if care is not taken. Before sharing tips on how to effectively manage working remotely, some major disadvantages and problems this can cause are;

Distractions and lack of boundaries
Many people work from home because they want more time to spend on their hobbies or with their family. But the lack of a concrete boundary between work and home can lead to distractions such as interruptions by the kids or doing domestic chores during work time.
Knowing when to stop
As a remote worker, it can be difficult to know when to unplug and stop working, making work feel never-ending. In one study, 39% of remote workers reported working longer hours than they were supposed to.
Loneliness and isolation

To effectively combat those issues, here are some tips;

Find the right space
Whether it’s a room in your home, a shared workspace, or a favorite coffee shop, the environment matters when working remotely. Make sure temperature and noise levels are comfortable for you, you have plenty of space for your equipment, and it’s somewhere you’re not likely to be disturbed. Look for areas that offer natural light to help you feel energized.
Set a schedule
Working remotely often means more flexibility – so you might have more choice about when you do your tasks. But while this can be a very good thing, you might find that not having such strict deadlines means work bleeds into other areas of your life, which can be stressful. So it’s important to set yourself a schedule and stick to it as much as you can.
Get dressed
No, seriously. It may be tempting to work in your pajamas, but it won’t make you feel professional. And it’s not a good look on a video call. Clothes influence our mood and emotions, so wear something that makes you feel motivated, professional and confident. Getting dressed for work will also help you mark the distinction between work and home life, helping you switch off when the working day is over.
Plan breaks
With no prompts to take lunch and coffee breaks, remote workers can find whole days passing in front of a screen. Taking a break is energizing, especially if you can get outside, so set yourself a schedule and make sure every day features at least a walk around the block. If it’s not possible to go out, get some activity going indoors.
Communicate, communicate, communicate
Working remotely requires more communication – not less. Use instant messaging and group chat to stay in the loop with colleagues and projects, video call into meetings, and above all, check in with colleagues and managers.

Working from home has actually become a double-edged sword to a lot of workers. It would have been better if working from home remains to have fixed time setup. The problem is that there isn't to many workers. I have heard of complaints from teachers here in my place that working from home has actually made them a lot busier than it was when they worked at school. They're now heavily loaded that the time they're spending working has actually increased. So while you're working from the comforts of your home, it isn't a big deal since you're still too absorbed in your work.

[$anounimus$]

When you have to work from home, you may find it harder to be effective. At least have to agree that it's probably not the easiest lifestyle to live and accept where people won't care about your needs except ourselves. so, we must be careful to avoid friction and not belittle the environment in which we work so that we can be calm, and productive while doing activities even from a distance.

One thing that is very important make sure you prepare yourself with a fast Internet connection.

[Gozie51]

There are two aspect that I want to consider in the challenge of working remotely, yes you have mentioned communicate or communication but in the midst of that I'm looking at communication regarding internet connection since it is done remotely I assume it is also should be in remote area that lacks modern facilities and tops amongst that should be active internet connection. This will slow down the pace of work because bad internet connection is one hack of frustration in doing office work at home or remotely. For example during the covid-19 pandemic where people took their office jobs back home, the reviews were that the internet frustrated the pace of the job. Offices are located in the city and so the internet are better in such areas to compare remote places.

Supervisorship is another point. People tend to work better and produce better results when they are supervised and under controlled environment, so a remote worker apart from being lazy and distraction from family and children they are likely to yield result even when they are alone in the house and not disturbed.

Look for areas that offer natural light to help you feel energized.

Living alone on a rented house is becoming option for some remote workers now. Focusing to your work is really difficult to do at home because there are really some unwanted noise that you can't avoid from your neighbors or people living in the same house. Telling them to stop is not that easy because it will also make them uncomfortable at their own house.

Get dressed
No, seriously. It may be tempting to work in your pajamas, but it won’t make you feel professional. And it’s not a good look on a video call. Clothes influence our mood and emotions, so wear something that makes you feel motivated, professional and confident. Getting dressed for work will also help you mark the distinction between work and home life, helping you switch off when the working day is over.

Proper attire doesn't have anything to do with being motivated to work. Developing a proper discipline is a lot better to become an effective remote employee. Plus I don't think employees that work remotely will bother to get dressed properly, they will think that it will just give them extra laundry if they wear proper clothes. Remote workers usually just wear a proper clothes when they have an important meeting.

[Wapfika]

I’ve been working from home since the pandemic start and all I can say was working at home is surely more stressful and unproductive on my side because there’s a lot of distraction in my home compared when I’m working in my office. The time to start my work too is giving me hard time because it’s too hard for me to get up early morning to prepare for work in my own house without anyone who will monitor you.

I really appreciate the guidelines. I definitely try this pointers of yours.

[Ucy]

And it's important to be sure it's the kind of thing you can do, especially alone. I think works people do alone should be reserved mostly for quiet minds, the heads, leaders, etc.

It should be done with reasons like to enable you work without being restricted to one location/work... Which is more suitable for nomads

[traderethereum]

I think some of us are also still working remotely.
And to anticipate distractions when we work, we can communicate with family members that when we are in front of a computer or laptop, we ask them not to disturb us.
Maybe sometimes they will come up to us and have a chat but try to let them know that we are working.
After we work for a few hours, try to take a break to unwind and regroup with them while chatting.
If working remotely, we need to talk to other family members so there won't be any misunderstanding between us.

[so98nn]

Yeah work from home is some crazy stunt these  days. It’s like you are being forced to work at home, the place where you make memories with your loved ones, home is space where you get out of your daily routines and be comfortable. However these days peeps who work in IT sector are mostly being dragged away from the offices. The mindset changes heavily when you work at office, you are surrounded with like minded peeps who are focused on completing the work. Obviously there is also lot of fun at work but that’s with your colleagues and it’s another life really. Mixing with WFH has become tedious and monotonous too!

[Raflesia]

Remote work is now a trend, especially with restrictions due to the virus that attacks the term "work from home" as if it has become a routine for now.
I have now been working from home for the last few years especially during the lockdown period but indeed this has its real advantages and disadvantages because what I feel when I work at home and work remotely I am more passive to socialize because I spend work in my own room and I personally feel I'm more lazy to do work than being in the office. I don't know if this is just happening to me or if other people feel the same way because working at home makes me bored quickly.

[Asiska02]

Both working in an office and from home have advantages and drawbacks. I currently prefer working from home. I find it difficult to socialize with new people, and when I'm not doing anything, I can easily become bored. My interest in working from home has recently grown, and I take my routines very seriously for the sake of my mental health. When you have a timetable for everything and treat them seriously, you can control the disruptions that co-family members cause at home. Despite the fact that I enjoy brainstorming in groups, I still prefer working alone. Everyone has a different method of working comfort, and we all select the method that works best for us.

[btc_angela]

To be honest, I don't know how I cope up with working from home even before the pandemic. I guess my secret is that I treat it as what I regularly do, wake up and then get up to work 9-5. Of course, I do take a break, follow it and then go back working again. I don't take advantage of being working remotely. There could be some, who might be working on time, not just slacking before they are in their home. I don't dress up though, except if I have a meeting with someone, and I have a place specially for my work remotely.

[kryptqnick]

I tried working in the office, and it's not my thing. If a job is such that really requires doing something that can't be done from hope with as much quality, then I'm alright going there. But if it's all on the laptop and thus can totally be done wherever a person is, as long as there's a laptop and Internet connection there, it's unreasonable to require this person to waste time on going to an office, limiting the time that could be spent at home. Of course, it also depends on the home and how quiet it is, which can be different for different people. So I think it's more reasonable to allow a person to choose. Some might prefer the office atmosphere, while others find it unbearable. I've never had a problem with my time-management and organizing myself, and I've never really had a strict boundary between work and home, so I prefer to do what I can from home.

[noorman0]

Maintaining the discipline of working at home is indeed difficult, all home activities however will interfere with concentration which makes work longer and even untouched. The effective way is to separate the workplace by getting a "temporary office" which is a bit far from the home area even though it only contains 1 small room to place a work desk. To overcome irregular working hours can actually be circumvented by several methods, such as using scheduled public transportation to go to the "office".

[KingsDen]

Working from home has become a latest trend in the economy especially after the covid-19 pendamic, many people and including companies found the reasons to allow workers work from home. Such reasons could be to reduce the risk of clustering at work, the  risk of accidents to and fro work place and it generally reduces welfare costs.

I work from home but all those things listed above at least I'm a victim of one or two. Working from home  I see myself overworking myself, I even work at weekends which would not be so if I go to office to work. But that does not mean that I would like to go to office for work, I still like it at home. My company recently resolved that everyone would be reporting to work like three times a week but employees revolted, there's no need going to office if everyone delivers from home.  I can't go to work  anymore, I like working from home.

The article said that working from home we should try to address professionally. Lol... I dress so casual and work, during our calls, it's only the team leader that appears on video, we get our fvcking video muted. All those formalities doesn't matter, what matters is bring result to the table within the stipulated time.

[Piesel]

I have being working half hours and half days since the post covid 19 era and to a great extent this have helped improved the quality of my work, I don't know if this is because I leave without family and have all the time to myself, but one of the things I put in ace for this is time schedule that guide my activities throughout my day and make sure I follow them up. But remote working can be most challenging when you working environment become conducive and you work longer than your regular work time which get me exhausted most times.

But aside from this obvious challenge of working around the clock, remote working is the best independent way to develop and deliver on most work tasks especially those that are involved in project works that require a lot of thought.

[Apocollapse]

Aside from that I will add few more tips that really important to become more effective for work from home:
1. Do physical exercise everyday on morning and get sunlight.
2. Eat healthy and don't be stressful.
3. Get a good internet connection, high spec devices, and other hardware that you need for your work.

I disagree for the point 3 where you need to be dressed well, if there's no meeting or live video, I don't think there's need to wear appropriate clothes. Mood and emotions usually depends on how comfortable the place you stay.

as far as i have experienced it is very difficult to be productive by working from home .. there are reasons to procrastinate work which makes it very difficult for us to be productive .. not to mention the many distractions from home and the difficulty of concentrating due to the environment ... i totally agree that looking for the right environment will really help us to be focused and productive

Office is different from home. If you are an artisan and you use your home as office you will observe that you will be slow and not productive in it. There is a reason that office is for work and home is for living. You don't miss pleasure with work and that is ywhysome office don't allow couples to work in same job, office or branch depending on the company's policy because of certain delay. It is not going to bring efficiency enough when you are working from home.

[Davidvictorson]

I have a love-hate relationship with working from home. Some of the lessons I have learned while working remotely:

• Working from remotely won't increase your productivity more than working in an office will.
• Micromanaging continues even if your employer permits you to work remotely.
• Working remotely might sometimes make you lonely, especially if you're a single person.

[uneng]

Thanks for the tips, I really appreciated them. Daily life is so busy and there so many thoughts and worries in our minds that we actually don't stop to think about these points presented on this thread, but they are very important for a healthy and productive working duty. Many remote workers are harming their health by not having a balanced routine of work, rest and leisure. Since they setup their own workload and schedules, it's common they don't follow a routine, consequently not following lunch time, dinner time, sleep time. Many also swap the day for the night and lose communication with outside world.

In the present moment it seems harmless, but on long run it can bring serious physical and psychological consequences for these individuals. Modernity and technology are very good and make our lives easier and more confortable, however, they can also trigger diseases in our brain, such as anxiety, sleep deprivation, irritability, visual impairment and so on...

[Cryptomultiplier]

The office is different from home. If you are an artisan and you use your home as an office you will observe that you will be slow and not productive in it. There is a reason that office is for work and the home is for living. You don't miss pleasure with work and that is why some offices don't allow couples to work in the same job, office or branch depending on the company's policy because of certain delays. It is not going to bring efficiency enough when you are working from home.

Well-spoken. It requires a lot of mental, physical, and emotional discipline to be able to even manage to work efficiently from home. If one lives in a place with noisy neighbors with kids running around, especially during the holiday season, it can hamper the productivity of working from home.  If one also lives in a place that is not spacious enough, in that the workstation and bed overlook each other, it might be quite distracting.
 Offices, on the other hand, offer one a community of like-minded persons who understand the complexities of your work, and having to leave work at work only to come home to relax, be with family, and plan better, is number one on the pecking order.
To be more effective working remotely, one has to ensure that the workspace is far from the bed space. Also, one has to learn to adopt management skills for time efficiency, health care, and resource consumption.
Furthermore, balancing the scale between social outtings, exercise, other forms of leisure and your work, should be of paramount importance.

The tiredness part is the key part where it's going to hurt you in the long run. If you are working from home like me, and if you have a terrible sleep schedule, then you are going to be tired a lot of the times. Plus, we are talking about sitting down on your chair for many hours, there isn't a traffic, there isn't a commute, there isn't even a reason to get up when it's over.

Sometimes I wake up at 8 am, sit down o my chair, work until 5-6 pm, and then I just keep playing games on my PC until midnight, that means we are talking about 16 hours without getting up aside from getting food or toilet breaks. You need to fix that, every hour, go up for 10-15 minutes and walk around in your home, that will do wonders to your body and you will not be as tired, plus drink a lot of water, I mean like 2+ liters of water every day, combine these two and you will do fine.

[BIT-BENDER]

Working from your own comfort be it your home or a favorite park, basement or anywhere you find comfortable the main reason was so you may find it less complicated and easy for you, but you should know that is you don't have good knowledge or skill of what you are doing where you working from office or your comfort zone you won't be efficient at that work.
The first step is actually try to be a skilled worker in your field that's consistently improving especially when trying to work away from the office. The less formalities and less skill co workers to ask for assistance poses a barrier.

If you can be good at your work and you have good professional disciplines I don't think you need a text book directing you how to work from your own comfort zone.

[Leviathan.007]

I can explain this as someone who is correctly working remotely, there are many benefits for both the company and the employee when they start working remotely for the company they won't need to pay for a big office and pay for the things like coffee and providing computers and devices to the employees so they will take some financial benefits from it but since the employees are not in the company sometimes it's hard to monitor them and take them under control while for the employees they can work from home without of paying money for gas or taxi also they fell more comfortable and usually, they can have fixable working times. I guess time after time we will see more companies starting remote jobs.

[Furious 7]

For concentration, maybe this depends on your home environment, but when I say delaying this work, I also feel because I don't know why this always happens and I think this can still be done quickly so there is no need to rush it.
Even if you want to change it, it's still difficult because it keeps happening like that even though there are often deadlines when doing this, but the bad habit of procrastinating like this continues.

[yhiaali3]

I have experience working remotely, I left the job I used to work in the past and devote myself to working remotely, sometimes I feel bored, bored and lonely because my wife is an employee who goes to work and the children go to school, also the presence of children next to you sometimes causes you harassment because of their annoying activity, From time to time I try to quit work and go visit friends to change the routine that has bored me. But despite all that, I found working remotely better than working in a full-time job.

That is so pretty solid advice on how to be more productive at home. Some people are able to do it better than others, some people think they can do it successfully but in reality they are underperforming compared to working in a more communal setting and others are just downright lazy who will use it as an excuse to avoid doing real work. Personally I feel a lot more productive going into work every day and having that separation, where you can leave the office after doing your hours, go home and switch off from work. If you're stuck in the same environment all day it can get rather depressing and you may end up losing track of hours.

[batang_bitcoin]

Staying on my room with an AC is more enough to start. No distractions, no noise and I'm like in a cave of a modern man.

People have been complaining about being less effective working from home than being in the office. I quite do understand that it was because of the environment and sometimes working from home has many disturbances that will affect our job and performance. I'd see the calm environment in the office and also all the things we needed are there. Well, maybe it was a sort of adoption to the new place and time adjustment which is a little bit challenging but I know it was still manageable.

I understand those that have told that and it's normal to say that while doing a new setup. But they'll realize it sooner or later if they want to go back in the office, dealing with daily traffic and commute. That's a lot of hassle to face with just to be productive as they say.

[electronicash]

get dressed is the least i expect to read as a tip for online workers. but this is applicable if the video conference is required in the job. if you are however just going to do and achieve milestones everyday, you wouldn't mind what you wear while working as long as you can complete you job.

the working remotely trend however is not going to build a strong team of workers and companies are also hesitant to share data to their employees which they could freely give to anyone if they have access at home.

[Hydrogen]

The most effective remote work practices I have seen. Were freelance programmers accepting contract work. Outsourcing the job to reduced wage coders in india or china. Only needing to examine the code base daily to make certain the project was on track. Offshoring and outsourcing work to independent contractors on platforms like amazon turk seems like a good to go practice for remote workers. In addition to outsourcing work to freelancers in other countries who might be willing to work at reduced rates.

Automating processes is also a good practice. As is learning keyboard shortcuts. Using macros when needed. Etc.

Moving to a more rural location. Or becoming a digital nomad who immigrates to a foreign country where the cost of living is reduced. Might also be aspects that contribute towards being a more effective remote employee.

Of course, companies are totally aware of those risk where access on information shouldnt really be in 100% and they arent that dumb on doing that unless if they had some workers
that had been on the company in service for long time then there might be some exemptions.
Most of the time to those who do work remotely and doesnt really need to have those conference or turned on camera most of the time then it wouldnt really be
requiring on getting dressed.
Its true that having some work inside your home does really give out that boredom but i could honestly live with it. 

[Fara Chan]

There are still struggles that working-from-home employees are experiencing. But for me, the comfortability that we could experience through working from home should be enough motivation for us to strive for better. Having a comfortable working area where we could do our jobs and tasks comfortably would be a good idea. Having enough rest and sleep for us to be productive during our working hours is also an advantage. We should also enjoy the job that we're doing and also reward ourselves after long hours of a shift.

The work we do must have a level of comfort, this has an impact on our performance at work, time management, rest and having free time for family are also quite important parts.
Because work is not just making money, but there are many other things that we cannot ignore, while distance or close depends on where we have the opportunity to work, but basically both distances are not a big problem, when we are able to maximize and manage the right time.

[Reid]

I work remotely and I can say there is more distraction unlike when you are in office.
It's easy to say to plan everything but you just can't follow those effectively whenever you feel like you can do some work later.

Hardcore discipline is necessary if you are working from home. If you have kids, there will be time they will disturb you and you cannot just say no to them, everything had to be explained or else they will feel like they are not loved.
It's different from coming home from work and they greet you with joy.
The time for breakfast, lunch, and dinner are also changing if you are distracted.

[naira]

Find the right space
Whether it’s a room in your home, a shared workspace, or a favorite coffee shop, the environment matters when working remotely. Make sure temperature and noise levels are comfortable for you, you have plenty of space for your equipment, and it’s somewhere you’re not likely to be disturbed.

Living alone on a rented house is becoming option for some remote workers now. Focusing to your work is really difficult to do at home because there are really some unwanted noise that you can't avoid from your neighbors or people living in the same house. Telling them to stop is not that easy because it will also make them uncomfortable at their own house.

This is what I have been doing for almost a year. People who work remotely, especially those who have to accept jobs that used to be offline, and greet coworkers, now have to get used to computers. Get in the habit of being productive with everything online. But maybe this is part of the preparation for a future where offline work is starting to dwindle and people are turning everything online. I decided to rent a rented house for a demanding job where a level of focus is required. Must be in a quiet atmosphere, without noise, and give us a little stimulus to concentrate more.

[michellee]

I think it will depend on how we can divide the time to work from home with time to do other activities. In today's era, where the pandemic has just hit almost all countries, companies require their workers to work from home, making them need to adjust their work rhythm with activities at home. Maybe the things that we must be considered are working hours at home may be freer because we can do other things while we work. But it can also make us unable to focus on office work, which can interfere with one of them.

And if we can manage time for work and family, I think we can stay focused on doing office work and maybe it can be even more effective if we do it at home because we can do it anytime. The results for each will be different, so we need to adjust the activities we do at home.

[lovesmayfamilis]

For me, working outside the home seems like a lot of trouble. It is necessary to wake up on time and allocate time to do makeup, then there are the road and traffic jams; and finally, communication with not always desirable people. 
Working from home, I belong only to myself. There is an opportunity to get enough sleep and do all the important and necessary things that my family needs, and only after that can I devote time to my work. I see it as complete freedom. What I need to do when the day is lacking, I can borrow from the night. But the work will get done anyway, and it won't make me a robot doing the same movements every day.

[ginsan]

Working remotely is the dream of many people no doubt many people want to get this opportunity but because it takes expertise in every field can sometimes hit them.

Now in the context of working remotely, it is very easy for someone to do, for example, he can work at home without having to go out and can also save expenses. Besides that, working remotely in the current era also allows someone to do other work because there is no set time for work. but you have to be ready when you get an assignment because working remotely is like 7x24 hours you have to be ready anytime when there are important things to do.

[Silberman]

I have been working remotely for past few month - it is the most difficult thing in my entire career.
The point you have mentioned it very valid - one should be properly dressed before the meeting and before the work - because it adds to your performance
I have noticed that when I work in my night suite I m more lazy but if I shower and change my dress  - I am. more active.

I suppose that it depends on your preferences, personally I find not having to commute or dressing up to be very refreshing, as I can perform my job very well regardless of what I'm wearing when I am working, but I can understand why some people may not like this and could prefer to dress up and follow the same routine they have followed for years on their regular job, even if it isn't absolutely necessary since they are working from home.

I suppose that it depends on your preferences, personally I find not having to commute or dressing up to be very refreshing, as I can perform my job very well regardless of what I'm wearing when I am working, but I can understand why some people may not like this and could prefer to dress up and follow the same routine they have followed for years on their regular job, even if it isn't absolutely necessary since they are working from home.

The stress and the hassle on getting up on bed early and make those usual routine specially on daily commute is really gone when you do work remotely and thats the beauty of it which it cant really be
that stressful on your part but in exchange which you do work on a space where you are just the only one on that certain place or on your bedroom which other people find out to be that too boring
on doing such thing which i couldnt really blame them on because there are really times which we do really love to socialize and interact with other people thats why they do really prefer on going into
certain job sites and do able to see and feel the ambiance with other people but since there are ones who are lonely types or just love to work solo then its up to your choice.
We do have different preference and interest in life.

[Raflesia]

For me, working outside the home seems like a lot of trouble. It is necessary to wake up on time and allocate time to do makeup, then there are the road and traffic jams; and finally, communication with not always desirable people. 
Working from home, I belong only to myself. There is an opportunity to get enough sleep and do all the important and necessary things that my family needs, and only after that can I devote time to my work. I see it as complete freedom. What I need to do when the day is lacking, I can borrow from the night. But the work will get done anyway, and it won't make me a robot doing the same movements every day.

Actually there are some things that are good and some are not depending on our comfort.
Maybe in terms of personality, people who are used to being alone or often called introverts work at home and in their private rooms can feel more comfortable, but it's a different story for people who like to mingle with others or extroverts.
Actually, it depends on how you react to this, I think, because it's like you like it or you don't like it, it's yourself who feels it.

[famososMuertos]

I think it is a trend theme but it does not mean something new or something that has not happened  before the pandemic, remote work increased in some areas and it became new in others, just that.

Perhaps for some it is a novelty but in any case, just like a job in the company, if you now want to do it from home and they allow it, there should be nothing exoteric or rocket science methods to carry out the activity that corresponds to your abilities.

It really is a matter of assuming it and proceeding to carry out the competent tasks, then if you do not perform, change jobs or you will surely be fired.

[Wawa2013]

I have been working remotely for past few month - it is the most difficult thing in my entire career.
The point you have mentioned it very valid - one should be properly dressed before the meeting and before the work - because it adds to your performance
I have noticed that when I work in my night suite I m more lazy but if I shower and change my dress  - I am. more active.

I suppose that it depends on your preferences, personally I find not having to commute or dressing up to be very refreshing, as I can perform my job very well regardless of what I'm wearing when I am working, but I can understand why some people may not like this and could prefer to dress up and follow the same routine they have followed for years on their regular job, even if it isn't absolutely necessary since they are working from home.

In the end I think just do the work that we feel comfortable, if we are comfortable in doing the work, it is certain that the results will also
be more effective. Since I don't want to do the same routine every day, I prefer work that can be done at home. As you said if we work at home
we don't have to spend time dressing up or don't have to think about what clothes to wear. I think working from home also saves us more time,
because we don't have to spend time traveling from home to work. If we want to socialize, there are also many social media that we can use to
make friends, so we don't feel alone.

In my opinion, with the ease of internet access, it is time for us to use the internet to make money. But there are also people who are more
comfortable working in the office, because they want to socialize directly to feel more alive. There is nothing wrong with that, the most
important thing is whatever our choice, as long as we work without harming others and do not violate the law. Both working at home or working as
usual in the office are both good, depending on each person who goes through it. So we have to decide for ourselves which one is best for us,
because only we ourselves know what is best for us.

as far as i have experienced it is very difficult to be productive by working from home .. there are reasons to procrastinate work which makes it very difficult for us to be productive .. not to mention the many distractions from home and the difficulty of concentrating due to the environment ... i totally agree that looking for the right environment will really help us to be focused and productive

A single lady or man can be productive working at home,  when the environment is less noise, except that you have children that works that's when you can say that it's not nice working at homes, giving you little instance, during COVID-19 many workers do work at home and especially bankers, working at did not stop them, so it's someone that has kids that can reject working at home provided it's a brain work not something that deals with workshop

[dothebeats]

This is one of my struggles when we first shifted into a remote work setup. Given that my tasks revolve heavily around reading a lot of stuff and putting things into practice, my attention is easily distracted by my gaming computer or just about anything that moves. We're also not supervised in any way and so I can literally just sleep for 8 hours and still not be reprimanded because of laziness. I got all the comforts that one should have in order to get themselves motivated to work, but it still isn't enough to cure my short attention span which causes me to not care much about the task at hand and do something productive. Gradually though, I learned to focus and get things done. I isolated my workspace in a room wherein there is enough natural light coming in and I can just peek through the window and see the trees etc. Somehow it helped me, as it had a relaxing effect on my mind that gets me through each day with lots of things finished. Unfortunately not everyone has the luxury that I have in order to work comfortably in their homes, but are still more productive than me because it's really a case-to-case basis at the end of the day.

Distractions and lack of boundaries
Many people work from home because they want more time to spend on their hobbies or with their family. But the lack of a concrete boundary between work and home can lead to distractions such as interruptions by the kids or doing domestic chores during work time.

That's my biggest problem. When I work from home my family acts like I'm available all the time. When I work I have my headphones on because it helps me to focus and filter background noise. They see it but still ignore it and poke me all the time asking questions when I can't hear them.

Imagine my wife talking to me standing in the hallway and then when I don't react because I can't hear her she comes over and asks me if I heard what she was saying. Makes me want to scream profanities every time.

Not on every occasion, if you are in a crowdy location it will obviously be difficult to concentrate and work remotely with all the noise and distractions and less productive, but in a situation where you have a less noisy environment to work, working from home can be great and you can work more than you would necessarily do at work imo.

[bitzizzix]

As long as you don't enjoy providing your services and have no purpose in your life, otherwise you won't get bored or irritated easily.
because most freelancers are creative and multi-talented so they can enjoy working from home and doing many activities in their spare time too and besides that they can create side jobs that can be done without the boss or office people knowing, and I think it's very exciting.

This goes back to our nature because in this case it is quite difficult to say which one is actually the best because each head obviously has his own opinion and desire because it is part of nature.
There are actually pluses and minuses to both of them depending on how we respond to it because in this case it really comes back to each other's perspectives.

I don't know your specific job but you should pay attention to the tips in the thread above that we can allocate time for all daily activities, even if you work as a freelancer of course you have time to rest and refresh your brain.

But I like freelancers because we can work anywhere as long as we can complete the work on time and according to the expectations of the employer, we can also take time off at any time without being tied to an employment relationship and we can work again whenever we want, so you should be grateful because you have time to be with your wife at home.

[trendcoin]

To effectively combat those issues, here are some tips;

After the Covid-19 pandemic, the concept of working remotely has completely entered our lives. Even those who previously saw this concept as a utopia had to work in this new order... I did not work remotely during the pandemic. Therefore, I do not have definite ideas about its difficulties. I think creating routines solves any problem. If some routines are created in work planning and we stick to these routines with our teammates, we can handle all the work without any problems. I can't see very sharp differences between remote or normal work. In addition, if I worked at home in pajamas, my motivation would probably drop. I'd try to be minimally serious about clothing... Still, I think it's not a serious problem, anyone with a minimum of work discipline can get used to this new concept over time.

[Hamphser]

Knowing when to stop
As a remote worker, it can be difficult to know when to unplug and stop working, making work feel never-ending. In one study, 39% of remote workers reported working longer hours than they were supposed to.

This is true but to consider that you are working in the comfort of your own home and with your own PC then we know that we could access out everything specially social media's which even if we do have some work yet we could really ease out the stress and being tired whenever we do access out or looks up something different within in our desktop which is totally my kind of behavior where you could just simply
make out some ALT+TAB sessions even if you are in work unless if your employer is strict when it comes to accessing those sites or having some monitoring but most of the time
they arent really that strict as long you do your job or work.It will vary since not all would be ending up on the same terms and kind of rules on where their employer gives.

Ohh, yeah...I feel that the same as what I've experienced and I felt I was not productive anymore as I can't work efficiently.
With the nature of the environment being at home feel like we are just at home actually and certainly, it affects our mindset and our performance. But I guess, it only needs some adjustment just like what I did, I locked the room and told them that I was at work. But I think it was more convenient for us if we are at the office as our concentration is only on our job, not with the other stuff.

[Jatiluhung]

Finding the right space is an important point for someone working remotely. because we will be more focused on work if we are in the right room. imagine if you work in a room where your child is playing back and forth running. it will really disturb your concentration. so make a special room for you to work even if it's in the corner of your room. and make the space special as a place that only you can enter. so you will not be disturbed by people in your house.

[Getmon]

It really depends on us. I would love to stay at home doing my work. It saves time and money consumed by travelling from work to office and then on the way home and the meals and snacks. At home I can easily grab any food or even cook while having a light work. And I don't have to get dressed well except if there are cameras needed.

I know there are also positive reasons to stay at our work places rather than at home. The focus is better. Everything needed at work is always at reach. But if I am given the choice I would love to work at home.

As someone who works remotely, having a quiet environment especially away from distraction will provide more efficiency in my task however it doesn't mean that you should isolate yourself among other people but rather to be able to have enough quiet environment to focus on. Yes, it is hard to work if your children are asking for this and that and playing which could distract from our work but still having someone around or beside you is a great thing to have if you're working remotely.

Also, other than having the right place, Being able to communicate with someone freely, especially someone who is from your work is one great thing to have as it can provide enough distraction and focus on your work as you won't be able to slack off or be bored at the same time be able to discuss work-related things.

Actually I also want that kind of thing for myself at this time because it's clear that working at home is much more comfortable than in a certain office or cafe.
Because someone is always more free to open anything at home than outside the house, for example, such as opening certain websites and also other things that many people don't need to know.

I know there are also positive reasons to stay at our work places rather than at home. The focus is better. Everything needed at work is always at reach. But if I am given the choice I would love to work at home.

I also prefer to work from home if given two options like that. But for now I still can't work at home because I still live at my parents' house so I need to go out and go somewhere else to work even though it's not more comfortable for me at the moment.

There are some tips that I do to avoid distractions during the day, without the noise and of course the kids fall asleep quickly. Night tends to be more effectively used for work. Well, that's what I've been doing since the 2020 pandemic started. I changed the pattern of working time moved tonight (stay up). The stillness of the night and the cool atmosphere gave me a much better level of focus. No need to isolate yourself from the people around you. We just need to manage time as ideally as possible.

[bakasabo]

The best way to decrease effectiveness of working remotely is to decrease amount of elements that can distract. Working place must be far away from kitchen, food or TV. Separate room is a must. Also, dress code is necessary. If you work from home dressed in sleepwear, lays on sofa - then your working day wont be productive. Your remote work will be sort of a working from vacation.

I would suggest to simulate office working day while working remotely. Work from separate room, dress appropriately (jeans + t-shirt is ok), make timetable (when you have a lunch and 15min rest). Otherwise remote work will be not a proper work, but an addition to relaxing at home.

I do this mostly, I am away from kitchen or living room or anything, I have an "office room" of my own where I just have my books, and my PC, and I keep working here with closed doors because it allows me to just focus on the good parts of the working day, and doesn't have any distractions. However sometimes PC itself could be distraction, there are so many websites you could go to and get distracted, a simple youtube search could literally cause you to lose hours upon hours, so you should be careful.

I disagree on clothes, many people say it but I never liked it, not only it doesn't work, it also makes me feel uncomfortable and unless the point is to be uncomfortable enough to want to finish work quick so you can take the clothes off, it doesn't work for me.

[Sanitough]

Working from home has actually become a double-edged sword to a lot of workers. It would have been better if working from home remains to have fixed time setup. The problem is that there isn't to many workers. I have heard of complaints from teachers here in my place that working from home has actually made them a lot busier than it was when they worked at school. They're now heavily loaded that the time they're spending working has actually increased. So while you're working from the comforts of your home, it isn't a big deal since you're still too absorbed in your work.

Well, it might give an advantage for some but for others, it may end up ineffective. Especially if you have other responsibilities to be done at home, then your main job will be compromised and become less priority. The reason why some workers still want to go out and work in their own working places because that’s the only way that they can focus to finish their jobs without the intervention of others.

When working remotely then the main thing that would really be affected is about socialism + health which would really be both of those things will really be making some adjustment which you should really be that watchful specially into your health and since there's no much activity nor movement you would really be making then it would be sensible that for you to take care of your health at least then basic exercise is needed.
Its true that working from home does really give out that convenience but its true that there are people who doesnt really like on having this system but rather much preferred on dealing with other co-workers
which they can make out some interaction rather than making themselves been spoiled on their own homes.Well, it does really vary on someones preference and options.

Then it is very individual with the clothes. They way I dress for working remotely makes me feel like I am working from real office, but it is Friday and we have several hours left of work. I have tried the such routine as: wake up - immediately turn on laptop - login to working area - went doing breakfast. It all lead to me spending whole day in sleeping underwear, doing everything except work. Like lazy Sunday. That is all to due to habits and lack of discipline. Of course I am allowed to go to work in shorts, flip flops and a t-shirt with funny sign. But that all will trigger "inner me" not to take work seriously.

I really think that's the most difficult part of working remotely, even if people complain a lot about their coworkers and what happens at the office at the same time it is a source of great enjoyment for those which work in a healthy work environment, so working remotely can be a great pain for people like that, however since in theory you have more free time available due to not having to commute to your job you could always use part of that time to gather with those coworkers once in a while and maintain the positive relationship that you had.

[ololajulo]

I also create a focused work space by finding friends (3-4) who work remotely and stay close to me to share a workspace with. To help us stay focused and create a productive working environment for each other, I suggested that we switch homes every week. Taking short breaks is difficult when working together, but doing so together encourages focus

I think it also depends on what kind of work you are in or what you are running, because if you work in a team that requires a work team, you definitely need several people to focus on achieving the desired target. But if it's a job that doesn't require more people and results that aren't bad either, I don't think it's necessary to use so many people to get focused and satisfying results. Although working with a team or several people is easier to do because you can assign specific tasks for them to carry out.

[Dunamisx]

I see working remotely as an opportunity to cut living and working expenses down in other to be able to achieve some savings by maintain the same quality of production outputs, this is actually my own definition and understanding that interpret working remotely, there have been many people who work in the major cities for years of nothing to show forth, no savings and no advancement, but i believe even in that remote area, development will soon get there and things begin to change for good with time, for every success, there must be a starting ground.

You are correct. Bur when I went through some comments here, it looked as if working from home is a favour to only the employees. No, the employers and the company benefits also.

• In terms of expenses or total cost of production, is reduced because costs like transportation, welfare and others are reduced
• The risk level is reduced. Ranging from transportation risk, to and fro work to internal accidents that accour at work. A muster point that houses 20 workers may have only 8 because of working from home.

So, it is an advantage to both the company and the employees.

[coolcoinz]

Of course both parties benefit but I think that the employee gets more out of it. When a company has people available physically, they're able to represent them if somebody pays them a visit, you can make someone go somewhere, to another company, to the government office. Think of it like moving pawns on the board. When you're all at the office the boss can physically move those pawns, you can check their work as you go. For the employee it sucks because the boss is always watching them, it depends on the company though. Software development companies usually find it easy to move to remote work because people there are used to working alone and brainstorming ideas on meetups and conferences, which can be done just as good online.

[mich]

Although many people would prefer to work remotely, I think it's better for me to have a day job where you have to report to an office. I feel more focused because I will have assignments and deadlines that have to complete.

And would also be less likely to get the job done if I were surrounded by other people distracting me or trying to get my attention. Sounds strange but I get more work done and not looking at my phone because I am busy at an office.

I agree with everything you've said. Even employers state that the best way of effective work is the work at the office, because employees have higher sense of responsibility, they are less distracted, more focused on result, and most important, employees job can be controlled. An employee, even if he has no tasks to do, will at least do something while working at the office. Employers money will be well spent. Without task, an employee at home will do what ever he wants and get paid for nothing.

That's an insightful taught, both ends benefit from the service, then one can have enough time for self to think, test, plan and engage doing other things that could aid a good living with a freedom of self reliance, work environment is always good because you have the opportunity of meeting with people and through such you learn from them but the hardship and challenges in it is more than the benefits it offers, working remotely gives you time to develop your abilities and work effectively on them.

Distractions and lack of boundaries

My worst period was during the Covid-19 pandemic when I was working from home. And the greatest challenge was a distraction from my children. They were homeschooling and it was so frustrating that I had to shift my work period to late in the night or early hours of the morning. Working from home is not a good option for me now because I still have young children at home, maybe it would be a good option in four years' time.

Loneliness and isolation

This could be a blessing or a curse based on the behaviour of the individual. Isolation is my least worry. I can stay alone for days without feeling bored. Infact working alone makes more effective and efficient because it reduces distractions. This could only be a problem for mainly extroverts and very sociable people.

Find the right space
Set a schedule
Get dressed
Plan breaks
Communicate, communicate, communicate

All these points are valid except Get dressed. You are alone at home and nobody is seeing you so why do you need to get dressed. You just need to put on what is comfortable and convenient at that time. Even during zoom meeting your just need to look good in the part that is visible to the viewers.

Those are decent suggestions, OP, but they assume the worker has enough space in their house/apartment to dedicate to their working remotely.  Think about all the people who live in one-room apartments around the world.  There's no practical way I can think of to make a workspace and a living space (though I've never had to before).

Dressing professionally in spite of the lack of need to would be a boost to productivity I'd think.  I've heard phrases like "dress for success" and "the clothes make the man" all my life, and they've gone in one ear and out the other, but I do know there's a psychological benefit to putting on a shirt and tie (if you're a man) or just generally not dressing like a slob if you're focused on work.

How I envy those people who have big houses with spare rooms that can be turned into offices.  Wish I had something like that.

All these points are valid except Get dressed. You are alone at home and nobody is seeing you so why do you need to get dressed.

Necessary, no.  Beneficial, you'd be surprised.  Maybe those people in the picture are the exception, but honestly....just based on that photo, there's no way to know how productive they are or if it would help them to dress up.  I bet you it would.

Working from home has actually become a double-edged sword to a lot of workers. It would have been better if working from home remains to have fixed time setup. The problem is that there isn't to many workers. I have heard of complaints from teachers here in my place that working from home has actually made them a lot busier than it was when they worked at school. They're now heavily loaded that the time they're spending working has actually increased. So while you're working from the comforts of your home, it isn't a big deal since you're still too absorbed in your work.

To workers who are willing to stay at home and do their work to get the job they want, then I hardly doubt it's a problem for them.
Unless the people who're lazy get work from home and they ruin their daily job then that's a different story.

To sum it up I think it's good if people don't be lazy and do what they're supposed to either it's at home or through office, we'll develop a good society that way.

[Raflesia]

Find the right space
Set a schedule
Get dressed
Plan breaks
Communicate, communicate, communicate

All these points are valid except Get dressed. You are alone at home and nobody is seeing you so why do you need to get dressed. You just need to put on what is comfortable and convenient at that time. Even during zoom meeting your just need to look good in the part that is visible to the viewers.

lol looks like eccentric but that's the reality when we work at home and I can't deny that I also do things like this because when we work at home, for example, when we are in a meeting, of course we have to dress neatly and what we see is definitely the body parts above so that indeed other body parts that are not highlighted by the camera do not need to follow to make it look matching because we are at home and no one sees it

As someone who works remotely, having a quiet environment especially away from distraction will provide more efficiency in my task however it doesn't mean that you should isolate yourself among other people but rather to be able to have enough quiet environment to focus on. Yes, it is hard to work if your children are asking for this and that and playing which could distract from our work but still having someone around or beside you is a great thing to have if you're working remotely.

There are some tips that I do to avoid distractions during the day, without the noise and of course the kids fall asleep quickly. Night tends to be more effectively used for work. Well, that's what I've been doing since the 2020 pandemic started. I changed the pattern of working time moved tonight (stay up). The stillness of the night and the cool atmosphere gave me a much better level of focus. No need to isolate yourself from the people around you. We just need to manage time as ideally as possible.

Sometimes I love to work at night as well because it's more peaceful but the only enemy we have at night is that we are feeling sleepy and it's also cold too when it's passed 1 am in the morning. Also when I sleep during the day time, I have a difficulty of doing it because it's now noisy outside and then it is also hot when it's passed 10 am in the morning.

I wake up during these times many times because I can feel the heat inside my room. This is why I revert my schedule again back to morning even if there are some noise, only because I want to sleep peacefully at night. Our brain will function properly if we have a good sleep and our eyes doesn't hurt too the next day.

So far I don't have remote work, but I seem to be starting to understand how busy a remote worker can be to manage his time. Over time I can say that the informal work we do at home will make a worker lose more time to relax. Honestly, that's one of the problems I'm facing at the moment and sometimes I also forget about the time off.

But the most positive thing I can think of when this work is done at home is, better quality and results. I used to prefer login to forum and make posting when is out house, it never really made me focus on quality, but as far as I started to focus on login in at home then I can post something that makes more sense than before. Although I don't think of this forum as a workplace, but when I have a focus then I really enjoy it as something more and more fun.

Even if everything was perfect a lot of people have problems switching their sleeping hours as we are programmed to sleep when there is darkness and to wake up when there is light outside, so regardless of the circumstances most people will suffer insomnia or other sleeps disorders as this is something really difficult to overcome, and I say this because of my own experience as well as I have also worked a night shift and while you can do this for a time eventually you get to the point in which you cannot do it anymore.

The best way to decrease effectiveness of working remotely is to decrease amount of elements that can distract. Working place must be far away from kitchen, food or TV. Separate room is a must. Also, dress code is necessary. If you work from home dressed in sleepwear, lays on sofa - then your working day wont be productive. Your remote work will be sort of a working from vacation.

I would suggest to simulate office working day while working remotely. Work from separate room, dress appropriately (jeans + t-shirt is ok), make timetable (when you have a lunch and 15min rest). Otherwise remote work will be not a proper work, but an addition to relaxing at home.

working from home is the most difficult thing I have experienced these days.
But one thing I agree to is being casual and not properly dressed up - then surely you won't be productive - I have experienced this myself and its correct.

It's actually true to avoid getting distracted while working at home is to avoid those electronic gadgets better still find a working space that is very isolated to ensure maximum concentration as well as to be very effective, however working remotely can be boring and tasking at times you won't feel motivated to work in some days, it takes some efforts and self persuasion to go back to resume working, personally I don't think dressing smartly or casually has any effect on remote workers all you needed to do is concentrate with the remote job and do it appropriately without any qualms.

This is one of the things where people could usually do or possibly able to do because we are just working on our own home and no one really sees it which it would really be just part of our instinct that its not really that

needed to get dressed formally as people or employers cant really see on whats below which it would really be that understandable that upper portion is the only thing you should prioritize on well-dressed.

I have tested out this one but not in work but in our online class which i do only wearing my upper part of my uniform just to make it look that i had really wear up my school uniform
completely but well its been required on the first place.

Minor correction, work isnt meant to be fun and entertaining on first place. And how come you feel not motivated when working? Isnt salary motivates you to work? If it takes efforts and persuasion to switch from doing something to working during workdays, then I think you are working in wrong place. Or, your job is extra easy, that you need to seek for motivation to work.

[KingsDen]

I see working remotely as an opportunity to cut living and working expenses down in other to be able to achieve some savings by maintain the same quality of production outputs, this is actually my own definition and understanding that interpret working remotely, there have been many people who work in the major cities for years of nothing to show forth, no savings and no advancement, but i believe even in that remote area, development will soon get there and things begin to change for good with time, for every success, there must be a starting ground.

You are correct. Bur when I went through some comments here, it looked as if working from home is a favour to only the employees. No, the employers and the company benefits also.

• In terms of expenses or total cost of production, is reduced because costs like transportation, welfare and others are reduced
• The risk level is reduced. Ranging from transportation risk, to and fro work to internal accidents that accour at work. A muster point that houses 20 workers may have only 8 because of working from home.

So, it is an advantage to both the company and the employees.

That's an insightful taught, both ends benefit from the service, then one can have enough time for self to think, test, plan and engage doing other things that could aid a good living with a freedom of self reliance, work environment is always good because you have the opportunity of meeting with people and through such you learn from them but the hardship and challenges in it is more than the benefits it offers, working remotely gives you time to develop your abilities and work effectively on them.

You are very correct, working in the physical environment avails one the opportunity to meet colleagues in real life and learn their ways of lives, compare them to yours and decide if you will change or maintain your lifestyle. But apart from work, there are other places one can learn from people, like places of worship etc.

Working from home doesn't give my boss opportunity to develop himself as I watch him, it only gives him the ability to work on other people's project and make more money, other than working for only his company, thereby over working himself.

This is true for all circles and not only for workers because I live with several of my younger siblings who are still in school and have other activities with zoom meetings, so this is definitely a common thing that happens.

In this case, it is actually an adjustment, because in this case we can indeed be formal when we are finding work, but it is clear when we are at home, what is the whole thing to be formal.
This is the other side of the homework.

[Dunamisx]

Also, we must not forget to ensure self discipline in our work place be it from home or in office, many has taken the advantage of being self employed and working at the comfort of their home not to maintain some business standard ethics and that's why you could discover some ventures cease from operations after a while when they fail to maintain running the business into continuity, working remotely should be a good opportunity whereby a business can have a good start and build up from a premitive level down to global level if seriously handled.

[Silberman]

I also create a focused work space by finding friends (3-4) who work remotely and stay close to me to share a workspace with. To help us stay focused and create a productive working environment for each other, I suggested that we switch homes every week. Taking short breaks is difficult when working together, but doing so together encourages focus

That is a great solution, that way you get the best of both worlds, you get to still talk to the coworkers that are your friends and that you enjoy spending time with, but at the same time you avoid the coworkers that you do not want to work with while still dressing in whatever way you want, this is a very interesting approach that quite honestly it would have never occurred to me, and if at some point I need to work remotely again you can be sure that I will try to put this into practice.

You can still do those things but eventually totally different when it comes to actions and gestures which you cant really able to do so when you are working remotely.This is the big difference in between and this is

why there are some people whom do really prefer on having face to face interaction or social interaction with other people rather than on facing up on computers on long house period.
We cant really able to avoid the development in terms of technology and other aspects which is really mainly been changed which there is indeed a key area where people
could do their jobs on the convenience of their own homes.

Good tips. After COVID more and more people are working remotely and that is also part of the "gig economy" in the last decade. The tips are in general valid from many people who actually freelance or work under contract. Particularly the time limits and boundaries, even physical boundaries, between where you work and were you do anything else are critical for the psychological wellbeing of the individuals.

It changes a lot, not only do we learn how to adjust to a new setup of work but also we know how to manage ourselves being in communications limits. It really has a huge difference but I still see is not the reason why we couldn't perform well, it is really depending on the mindset of the person.
We have new technologies that really help us in order to make working remotely more effective, so we don't have any excuse to say that it was not possible.

[FanEagle]

Force yourself. That is something that not many people do but if you are going to work long term then you should be forcing yourself. You are having trouble waking up early? Force yourself to wake up early, too early if you have to, that way you will go to bed early as well, having trouble finding food to eat, or can't decide? Force yourself to eat healthy, having trouble exercising? Force yourself to do it.

If you keep doing these for a couple of weeks in a row every day, it is going to become your regular day and it won't really take that much time neither and rest of the time you could relax. I have been working remote for so long and never been happier in my life.

That's what I tried, worked at night because I thought it was quiet so we could easily accomplish my work and I would sleep in the morning. But everything is not the same as we calculate, awake too late and sleeping the next day, it does not help me to be more awake, and to be honest, for a married person like me, I could not have a good night's sleep when my children were awake out there.

Working at home helps us to avoid pressure when facing the boss while working, always serious to complete the work and we do not have the same comfort as at home. But at home, there was really my own trouble, when I face my two children when I was working and the surrounding noise made it difficult for me to focus.

[2stout]

IMHO, having a space that is dedicated only to remote work is a foundational key.  The other is hard start and stop times so that time expectations are properly set.  Another is limiting distractions and also having a daily agenda.

[Wong Gendheng]

I have experienced a long distance working and initially there were many problems, but because often meet offline and good communication, it can be effective, of course the main key is to understand the work and what the team must do so that there is no mistake.

[Mario Yamasaki]

Not difficult, but not easy when it comes to changing habits. Yes I mean when we get used to the environment we work in and have to run it from home there must be a different atmosphere. It affects our minds, the office atmosphere is definitely different from the home atmosphere. Atmosphere is important for me personally because it will affect our mood at work. This is where our professionals are at stake.

Communication is the key to being able to effective working remotely, technology support today makes us able to work remotely, and this is more effective when social restrictions occur a year ago, and all work can be completed without having to go in the office.

During last year's pandemic I think many companies implemented remote work,
indeed at first most employees find it difficult but with time they will get used to it,
it must also be supported by qualified facilities

I have experienced a long distance working and initially there were many problems, but because often meet offline and good communication, it can be effective, of course the main key is to understand the work and what the team must do so that there is no mistake.

If you often meet offline, then there is no need to apply remote work via online as long as going offline can still be more effective. But if you want to make your work easier in any case, then use both to support maximum smoothness and save your time in traveling.

During last year's pandemic I think many companies implemented remote work,
indeed at first most employees find it difficult but with time they will get used to it,
it must also be supported by qualified facilities

Facilities that must exist when communicating remotely are devices that can be connected to the internet and of course the internet network is also needed in this case. And so far I think every big company has clearly had the internet to get every job done. But at the time of the pandemic, I think that long-distance communication should indeed be implemented because it was already needed before there was a specific handling of the pandemic.

[kro55]

But if you'll look at the positive side of it, it also has an advantage because you will still be able to look after your kids at home and you have an assurance that they're safe since you can monitor them. It's really hard to manage things at home especially if you have kids but you really need to sacrifice and always look at the brighter side of working remotely. There are lots of parents who want to work at home just to be with their family but they don't have the same opportunity as you have. Sometimes appreciation over exhaustion is what we need to feel more motivated and grateful.

Yes, I am aware of the fact that nothing is perfect as we always wish it was. Although there is also the pressure to work at home, I still feel better than working at the office. As you say, I can monitor my children and that makes me feel safer. Sometimes the work is too stressful, I can rest and turn to fun with them for a while, which restores my spirit and makes me feel comfortable and refreshed. Nothing is perfect, still better when we can choose something better for us.

[RealMalatesta]

It affects our minds, the office atmosphere is definitely different from the home atmosphere. Atmosphere is important for me personally because it will affect our mood at work. This is where our professionals are at stake.

I would say that home could be a lot better place to work if you ask me. What do you have in an office? You wake up, you get ready, you travel to office, you work there in uncomfortable clothing, you work with maybe people you dislike, you are forced to stay there as long as you have to and then you travel back to home. Whereas when you are remote working, you wake up 10 minutes before work, make a coffee for yourself, sit in front of your PC and start working, that's it, and when you want to do something else in the middle, nobody is there to question you as long as you finish work by the end of the day. It's much better and a lot more easier to handle, definitely would prefer it.

[boyptc]

Don't forget about the connectivity or the main thing that's needed which is internet connection. If you're aware of the other preparations of what working remotely is.

Then, you should have a backup internet at all times. This is applicable for those remote workers that have ISP that sometimes have an intermittent connection and has to make some ways to connect again.

That's why having a backup ISP is what you need unless you're connected to starlink and wherever you go, you're connected and got no problems.

[Russlenat]

It really depends on us. I would love to stay at home doing my work. It saves time and money consumed by travelling from work to office and then on the way home and the meals and snacks. At home I can easily grab any food or even cook while having a light work. And I don't have to get dressed well except if there are cameras needed.

I know there are also positive reasons to stay at our work places rather than at home. The focus is better. Everything needed at work is always at reach. But if I am given the choice I would love to work at home.

Working at home has become the trend since the pandemic has arise. And I think I found it more relevant to stay at home while working, not only you save time and money, but you can also do multi tasking as far as earning from your stable job and side jobs are concerned. Though working at your workplace is also productive since your resources are reachable, but I’m glad stay at home jobs is introduced because I’m now enjoying it and it gives me more profits knowing I can do more than one job at the same time.

[isaac_clarke22]

Considering that my ISP is also quite unstable at some point wherein I encounter random disconnection, it could be an issue but good thing that my work time is not really inside of those times that I encounter disconnection.

In any regards, you're right that people should have at least mobile data in their phone and let their colleagues know about the matter. Usually there are common software used by teams these days anyways like Slack or MS Teams and it is even more accessible for them to contact their higher ups without passing it first to their supervisor.

Working remotely is now a common thing, and some persons may quickly choose that option of work if offered by a company. Working remotely can become as hectic even more as working in the office if care is not taken. Before sharing tips on how to effectively manage working remotely, some major disadvantages and problems this can cause are;

Distractions and lack of boundaries
Many people work from home because they want more time to spend on their hobbies or with their family. But the lack of a concrete boundary between work and home can lead to distractions such as interruptions by the kids or doing domestic chores during work time.
Knowing when to stop
As a remote worker, it can be difficult to know when to unplug and stop working, making work feel never-ending. In one study, 39% of remote workers reported working longer hours than they were supposed to.
Loneliness and isolation

To effectively combat those issues, here are some tips;

Find the right space
Whether it’s a room in your home, a shared workspace, or a favorite coffee shop, the environment matters when working remotely. Make sure temperature and noise levels are comfortable for you, you have plenty of space for your equipment, and it’s somewhere you’re not likely to be disturbed. Look for areas that offer natural light to help you feel energized.
Set a schedule
Working remotely often means more flexibility – so you might have more choice about when you do your tasks. But while this can be a very good thing, you might find that not having such strict deadlines means work bleeds into other areas of your life, which can be stressful. So it’s important to set yourself a schedule and stick to it as much as you can.
Get dressed
No, seriously. It may be tempting to work in your pajamas, but it won’t make you feel professional. And it’s not a good look on a video call. Clothes influence our mood and emotions, so wear something that makes you feel motivated, professional and confident. Getting dressed for work will also help you mark the distinction between work and home life, helping you switch off when the working day is over.
Plan breaks
With no prompts to take lunch and coffee breaks, remote workers can find whole days passing in front of a screen. Taking a break is energizing, especially if you can get outside, so set yourself a schedule and make sure every day features at least a walk around the block. If it’s not possible to go out, get some activity going indoors.
Communicate, communicate, communicate
Working remotely requires more communication – not less. Use instant messaging and group chat to stay in the loop with colleagues and projects, video call into meetings, and above all, check in with colleagues and managers.

I've been working remotely at the comfort of my home for almost a year now. This coming November first week, to be precise.
I 100% agree with the disadvantages listed in the OP when you're working remotely. Though, I knew when to stop as I've been working based on the allocated work load everyday, which is also not too much for me. I'm glad my client does not want me to get overwhelmed, except for the peak seasons which is an understandable situation anyway.
However, I have different ways in combating those disadvantages since I work with EST time zone, which is completely a reversed time zone from where I am located right now.
The most challenging part for me is the boredom, loneliness, and isolation as I've been working in a graveyard shift. Fortunately, I get used to it after a couple of months.

After a long COVID-19 pandemic, I began to learn that working at home was much more effective and fun. At first I was uncomfortable being
at home too long, turns out I started to understand that by working at home I don't have to pay for transportation. Another positive thing that
I get after working from home, I can save my time, because I don't have to travel to the office. I can also save money on food costs, usually if
I work in the office I always spend money to buy lunch. Now by working from home, I can eat lunch from food cooked by my partner. I also work
at home can be more productive, because as you said, not only do I get income from my main job, but I can do side jobs too. Although
in my country activities have returned to normal, but because I am too comfortable working at home. I resigned from my previous job and focused
more on finding work that could be done from home.

I can also save money on food costs, usually if I work in the office I always spend money to buy lunch. Now by working from home, I can eat lunch from food cooked by my partner. I also work at home can be more productive, because as you said, not only do I get income from my main job, but I can do side jobs too. Although in my country activities have returned to normal, but because I am too comfortable working at home. I resigned from my previous job and focused more on finding work that could be done from home.

There are a million reasons why working from home is better, of course it does have some troubles but that doesn't change the fact that we are talking about being at home and that is always better. I have to believe that we should be working toward something that is a lot more at ease for each other and working at home is a lot better version of working from office, it just doesn't mean that we do not have to work from home but we need to also save a lot of money that way as well.

I personally worked from home before pandemic and I have worked ever since as well, for the past 7 years or so and I cannot say that it would be any easier to go to office from now on, I would have a lot of trouble.

After a long COVID-19 pandemic, I began to learn that working at home was much more effective and fun. At first I was uncomfortable being at home too long, turns out I started to understand that by working at home I don't have to pay for transportation.

But maybe not everyone likes working at home, for people who are used to socializing with other people, must be working at home depressing him.
It's true now that technology is getting more sophisticated, where we can make video calls with other people. But the feeling we get is
very different when we socialize in real with other people. In the end it depends on the person, if it is more effective and comfortable to work at home
we can choose to work at home. But if we are more comfortable working in the office because we can interact directly with other people, please work
in the office. Everyone is free to choose to work according to what they want, after all there are some jobs that cannot be done from home.
So please let us take our own choices, but I will still try to work at home, because I think it's more convenient and also more effective.

YEs - that is true - I do not liked the idea of working from home.
That is the most difficult thing I have experienced in my life. There are kids at home who rushes to you during online meetings - while you are talking and making your presentation during zoom meeting with camera on.
It is good but it has its disadvantages too.

When it comes to that then i do agree which is kinda hassle but i do make out separate room which is really just intended for my meetings and there's no other that could really go inside once i do locked it up.
On this way then you could really work at peace and also you should really make out some explanation on why you do need to do this, and this is for the sake of family income and to sustain up their needs
and wants.The beauty on working on your own home is that you could really directly reach out your food and drinks whenever you are thirsty plus you could really see your wife and kids
without missing them since they are just behind back.The only thing that would be affected is on that social interaction on other people.

It's true since the pandemic hit our world, many people are doing work from home, myself included, I found it difficult at first because I'm not used to it but after a few weeks I started to enjoy it, I don't need to dress neatly to go to the office, I can working under the tree behind the house with a cup of coffee and it adds to the inspiration for me to work more effectively and focus

On point. You can do everything that makes you more comfortable and effective while working. You can listen to your favorite music, we can even go somewhere else while working. I am envy when I see in people posting in social media travelling to beautiful places while bringing their laptops in order to be able to work.

Except not all like to work remotely. Others have kids that are noisy and it can distract their focus to work. A noisy environment too can hamper our focus to work. 

[CarnagexD]

For me, it's effective if I treat my WFH set up like a normal day at the office, you work at the designated hours but make sure that you mix your fun while you are working, there are things that you can probably do while working at home. I've seen my friends play CS:GO and Valorant while doing their tasks so I think that it's the optimum albeit most distracting.

[Techkoy407]

for me remote work may be very inconvenient,
because the results are not optimal,
and chatting with clients also feels uncomfortable,
keep signal sometimes or bad network,
it severely hampers the quality of work,

and working remotely is too tedious,
I just looked at the computer screen, and it was very boring.

and an effective way when working remotely, for me
the important is

• healthy body
• stable internet network
• the right time to work, make a to-do list, so that work is more organized
• maintain coordination with colleagues
• workplace as comfortable as possible
• avoid other activities
• don't forget to take a short break

That's what I do when I work from home or remotely.

Working at home is not that bad, but the thing is I often feel tired working at home I don't know why maybe because I am burning out with my job or because I don't have someone to talk with my issues or burdens? I really don't know why, the thing that motivates me right now is the bonuses I will receive next month and on December, I am also listing some goals for this year.

Working at home is certainly the best choice, does not require travel and traffic jams so that it is more effective, besides that we can do it anytime and also the most important thing is that we can monitor and educate children to the fullest.

[bearexin]

lol looks like eccentric but that's the reality when we work at home and I can't deny that I also do things like this because when we work at home, for example, when we are in a meeting, of course we have to dress neatly and what we see is definitely the body parts above so that indeed other body parts that are not highlighted by the camera do not need to follow to make it look matching because we are at home and no one sees it

Eccentric because? They wear uniforms even inside at their homes? Or Eccentric because they wear uniforms but it wasn't complete like on what we see in the pic. They don't have shoes and pants but why would they do that when they are only inside their houses anyway and the whole body can't be seen anymore when doing a live meeting plus it makes them more comfortable working.

Actually, I research something similar to this like how to work in full concentration at home and one of the advice there is like this like we need to wear a uniform. I think that is to give us a real vibe that we are truly working on a real office. It's a nice trick tho.

[Finestream]

Force yourself. That is something that not many people do but if you are going to work long term then you should be forcing yourself. You are having trouble waking up early? Force yourself to wake up early, too early if you have to, that way you will go to bed early as well, having trouble finding food to eat, or can't decide? Force yourself to eat healthy, having trouble exercising? Force yourself to do it.

If you keep doing these for a couple of weeks in a row every day, it is going to become your regular day and it won't really take that much time neither and rest of the time you could relax. I have been working remote for so long and never been happier in my life.

There are always adjustments in every first times. It’s up to us how we can adopt in it and live with it, rather than focus on complaints and believe that it’s not gonna work anymore. Like when this pandemic hit us, working remotely has become a trend and I must say, it has worked for me after dealing on several adjustments. However, I believe that there are also some of us who never achieved their goals and end up in failure because maybe their environment is not conducive for working and if you have small kids around, they can really destruct our focus and left us working the hard way, the reason why some turn to be ineffective in their own works or jobs.

[CageMabok]

That kind of thing does look very effective for work in life, but I still can't do it full time at home because I still need to leave the house during work hours so I have to leave the house for a while. But when I can control all my work from home, maybe I won't leave the house often to continue the work I have been doing for a long time now.

Only for now I still can't do all my work from home even though I have an adequate internet signal, but there are things that have to be done manually and don't need an internet signal at all. This is what makes me have to stay out of the house to finish it. How about yourself ?

We do have to stop complaining about the problems that come, but we must learn to face every problem that comes. The faster we adapt to every
new situation that comes, I believe we can be successful in any job. Working at home has started to become commonplace after the pandemic,
indeed I also found it difficult at first and was not used to working at home. But all things will become accustomed if we dare to face it and do it regularly.
Since I have been working from home for about two years, I am now starting to feel the benefits that I get when I work from home.

But as you said there are actually many obstacles when working at home, it is not as easy as we think. One of them is that it is really troublesome to
work at home when we still have small children, I felt it when I first worked at home. That's why at first I didn't finish my work as well as when I was
still working in the office, because the atmosphere in the office made it easier for us to focus on work.

I then tried to find a solution that I would work at night when my children were asleep that was the initial solution that I did. But it's quite
inconvenient because I have to adjust my sleeping hours, then I found a better solution, which is to work in a room that my children can't really enter.
Until now after having worked at home for a long time, I finally started to feel more comfortable working at home than working in the office.
In the end as you said it all depends on us to adjust to new things, it will create comfort in the end.

[tabas]

Working in remote area is not an easy task because to me it just the advance method of slavery. I prefer to be self employed because it gives me freedom, but becoming an independent is not easy, many try and fail. It all requires patient.

Well, let's don't have that mindset that employees are slaves. We all know that fact that they're working for a company or employer and for the others that are not on their situations might say that it's the modern slavery. Yes, you're self employed and that's good on you but not everyone can be on that situation. Although just as you've said that it requires patience and some that would like to be in that shoe will have to endure many things because going up to that point. Working remotely has been one of the best features for employees as they can be at their homes while working at their own comfort.

[CageMabok]

The key to success to be able to do work in a remotely is a compact team and understands the job description, the most common mistake is communication, and even though we can work remotely, offline or coming to the office is still needed to discuss strategic things such as work secrets and so on.

That is, if you work in the form of a company, you must understand each other and have good communication in order to create a more pleasant atmosphere when you are in the office. But if the work is only for oneself I think the main fault is in the use of time which must always be taken into account because a person does not need communication with his group except only with customers or the people he needs to support his work.

[bakasabo]

The remote working has a lot of advantages if you can manage your domestice stuff. Many business have prefered and switched to the remote working option and they are happy with the cost cutting . . and end result

Managing domestic stuff during work will cause you working less effective. It will increase time to do regular task (as your primary work will be on your mind all the time), and the quality will also me affected. If a person can do his job, and parallel do some house cleaning or cooking, then his job isnt that hard and if his employer find that out, he might get his salary cut. But you are completely right about cost cutting. Part of our employees work remotely, and companies bill on electricity and gas (building has gas heating) are not murderous (consumption decreased, but utility prices are still high).

[stomachgrowls]

Working remotely is now a common thing, and some persons may quickly choose that option of work if offered by a company. Working remotely can become as hectic even more as working in the office if care is not taken.

managing time like we go to work for a company with 5-7 working hours every day even though we do it from home it will be more efficient.  don't lose the habit of interacting with the environment so you don't get stressed easily because you have work pressure.  besides that, you can schedule a day for vacation every week so that you can give justice to your family to spend vacation time together

That is correct working from is now a very common thing these days - many employers are now preferring to hire freelance and the remote worker
But to be a remote worker you have to manage your work and office together at the home - which is very difficult thing

Not really that difficult if you dedicate a home office place on where you could really do your job and get dressed.Just make sure that you are really that out of  distractions so that you would really be able to make

yourself that productive and wont have the risk on getting fired just because you hadnt done your job well.Its not really that much of an issue and just treat it to be a job which you do go on everyday.

I do prefer on working remotely on which you could really make yourself that comfortable since you are on your own home but eventually you would really be missing out those
social interactions with other people.Its not had if you do just stick out with the basics and let other family members know that they shouldnt really be distracting you
while you are working.

If you want to end up not regretting and be able to keep your work, then yes forcing is a must. After all, the adjustments are just in the beginning phase. Soon you will be used to it and will love the new environment and scenario eventually. Although I am also having my remote job these days, but the only difference is that I love its idea in the first place and it’s effective for me.

It's very difficult to manage time if you work at home, it takes time to find the right time to work

For the first time in my life (outside of the Coronavirus 2020 ordeal) I’m working remotely from home and I couldn’t be happier about it. Many of these tips you list out here are all things I try and frequently do. It’s not always easy to be perfect, but I do find myself burning out less and being more productive overall.

Nice to get stuff done during breaks and then being ready for the evening by the time work is over !

[Ani1985]

The key to success to be able to do work in a remotely is a compact team and understands the job description, the most common mistake is communication, and even though we can work remotely, offline or coming to the office is still needed to discuss strategic things such as work secrets and so on.

Communication is still one of the important factors in this matter, but regarding chemistry like this, it can actually be anticipated because even though we work as a team, we still have our respective main tasks and responsibilities at work, so this can still be done, plus when we carry out discussions such as when a Zoom meeting, for example, includes discussing apart from plans, of course a discussion of shortcomings as a reference to make our work more focused and better.

Working from home and working remotely is very difficult task - but people have given theri words that they have done more work from then going to the office and wasting so much time.

Not all types of work can be done remotely, usually light work that is always done repeatedly, if work that requires communication between departments, of course this is very difficult. In addition, it is very vulnerable to fatal mistakes due to mistakes in making decisions.

[Genemind]

I've been working from home for a few months now and it's true it has pros and cons. I used to work on-site where I was known to be really productive, I've always been recognized as the top employee and doing all my tasks in a timely manner without being idle and distracted. When I tried working from home there was a lot of temptation since no one can see personally what you are doing. There are times that I don't use my working hours productively without even being noticed. Another thing is you will be working with less supervision, if there's something that has to be done right away you will have to communicate it with your leads and wait for a response. Aside from this, there are a lot of conveniences working remotely, you handle your time effectively, save you from traffic, can do more tasks at work and at home and etc. I guess it all falls on how disciplined are you as an employee, it doesn't matter if you are working remotely or not.

Things will probably get messy and it will take you at least a few weeks to get everything organized. But once everything is in order, you will feel very comfortable working from home without any reduction in work efficiency, sometimes even better work efficiency because you will not be under pressure from the boss. When stressed, you can go out to play or play with your pet to relax mentally, especially those who are married and have children, you will have more time for them. To be honest, I am also working from home and I am satisfied with the current situation.

[CageMabok]

Not all types of work can be done remotely, usually light work that is always done repeatedly, if work that requires communication between departments, of course this is very difficult. In addition, it is very vulnerable to fatal mistakes due to mistakes in making decisions.

What everyone must understand is that the work is divided into several models or methods, so that the process will certainly be different and not all work can be completed using methods via the internet. For example, learning to drive a car, although there are many procedures through the internet, but it will not be so effective if it is not touched directly by people who want to learn. So not always every job can be completed remotely by using any tools to support it.

Remotely work needs many things such as communication and leaders can understand and direct the team according to the procedure, sometimes the leadership does not know the habits and abilities of the team so that what is ordered remotely is ineffective.

You mentioned research. We don't have to go far to do research on remote work. In this forum 90% have joined the campaign. Of course this is a remote work that we do.
The terms and conditions applied by the campaign manager are the best, and simple. First we must know in advance what to do. Second, how long the target time must be completed for a job.

Third, where we have to do the work. Fourth, what are the terms of employment. etc. If real job owners also implement this system, I think their work will hit the target every month, even weekly. But in reality, current real enterprise owners are failing to hit the target if the workers are remote. Because the work from day to day continues to change, so the concentration of workers becomes unfocused.

No your desire in the community is one of the thing that will motivate you to be more effective in working in a way you will have something reasonable to earn in the future.  Don't be Lizzy in carry out your personal research, which is part of some of the things that will make you effective in working to be part of those that will celebrate when the bull market appear in the market., Which is the best market every traders want to see and feel in the community.

Working remotely is now a common thing, and some persons may quickly choose that option of work if offered by a company. Working remotely can become as hectic even more as working in the office if care is not taken. Before sharing tips on how to effectively manage working remotely, some major disadvantages and problems this can cause are;

Distractions and lack of boundaries
Many people work from home because they want more time to spend on their hobbies or with their family. But the lack of a concrete boundary between work and home can lead to distractions such as interruptions by the kids or doing domestic chores during work time.
Knowing when to stop
As a remote worker, it can be difficult to know when to unplug and stop working, making work feel never-ending. In one study, 39% of remote workers reported working longer hours than they were supposed to.
Loneliness and isolation

To effectively combat those issues, here are some tips;

Find the right space
Whether it’s a room in your home, a shared workspace, or a favorite coffee shop, the environment matters when working remotely. Make sure temperature and noise levels are comfortable for you, you have plenty of space for your equipment, and it’s somewhere you’re not likely to be disturbed. Look for areas that offer natural light to help you feel energized.
Set a schedule
Working remotely often means more flexibility – so you might have more choice about when you do your tasks. But while this can be a very good thing, you might find that not having such strict deadlines means work bleeds into other areas of your life, which can be stressful. So it’s important to set yourself a schedule and stick to it as much as you can.
Get dressed
No, seriously. It may be tempting to work in your pajamas, but it won’t make you feel professional. And it’s not a good look on a video call. Clothes influence our mood and emotions, so wear something that makes you feel motivated, professional and confident. Getting dressed for work will also help you mark the distinction between work and home life, helping you switch off when the working day is over.
Plan breaks
With no prompts to take lunch and coffee breaks, remote workers can find whole days passing in front of a screen. Taking a break is energizing, especially if you can get outside, so set yourself a schedule and make sure every day features at least a walk around the block. If it’s not possible to go out, get some activity going indoors.
Communicate, communicate, communicate
Working remotely requires more communication – not less. Use instant messaging and group chat to stay in the loop with colleagues and projects, video call into meetings, and above all, check in with colleagues and managers.

For someone who is exclusively working remotely and has not been inside the company office ever since the break of the pandemic, things like these are very important because well, working remotely could be just as stressful as working from the office minus the commute. May I also add that sitting in front of your computer everyday could cause some detrimental effects to your health so besides planning your breaks, might as well include exercise and a balanced diet in your plans. That's the least you could do for your body and should be the last thing you will neglect because without it, you would not be able to do any work at all.

True and no more exhausting trip on the way home which almost feels like death for me everytine I logged my time off and cannot do anything else that I would love to do.

Sadly, many companies are now going back to onsite working due to post pandemic situation we have now and some workers might not see the benefit of being able to work remotely soon though there are pros and cons to both anyways.

Cant really deny which there are really having con's when you do work remotely.One is having that social interaction with co-workers or even with your manager in times of some difficulties or something like that.
Its true that it is really that a big convenience when we do work in the convenience of our home but there are people who do really love to commute and having interaction with other people or simply
does really seek out for some ambiance and not just on their own home.When pandemic hits then this had been the standard which most people been working from home but now
that we are gradually going back to normal then people do really start on working into those typical and daily commutes.

[Smartprofit]

Working from home has actually become a double-edged sword to a lot of workers. It would have been better if working from home remains to have fixed time setup. The problem is that there isn't to many workers. I have heard of complaints from teachers here in my place that working from home has actually made them a lot busier than it was when they worked at school. They're now heavily loaded that the time they're spending working has actually increased. So while you're working from the comforts of your home, it isn't a big deal since you're still too absorbed in your work.

The main advantage of remote work is the ability to plan your day. 

By working remotely, you can earn the most valuable asset in the world - time.  But time is only a valuable asset if it is used productively and interestingly.  Therefore, remote work should start with entertainment planning.

What do I want to do today?  Go to the theatre, cinema, go to the beach?  Have sex with a beautiful girl?  Once you have planned your activities, you can get to work.  After all, now you have an incentive to do the job quickly and efficiently, and free up time for an exciting pastime!

Or maybe you want to work in a cafe on the beach?  And swim in the sea during the break?  This is also a great option!

Yup, you got my point. It is a pain that you won't get immediate answers from your superiors especially when you are all communicating through some software like Slack which is the common messaging platform that teams uses.

Also speaking of social interaction, it is better to have personal and physical conversation than just having it done via email or electronically.  Even though I am an introvert, I still enjoy some few physical conversation with people rather than eletronically.

I had the opportunity to work remotely during the pandemic period. If this question had been asked to me earlier, my answer would have been that I would prefer to work at the workplace. But once you experience it, you realize that even going to work is a waste of time. Because there are too many alternatives other than the work done at the workplace, and this distracts you from work. Being away from work while at work. It's ironic, but true. Working from home, you can be fully focused and use your time more efficiently. I think working remotely increases productivity. I have experienced and seen.

Actually this heavily depends on what you do remotely. There are various jobs you can do on remote and some of them really don't need any travel, while some may be more efficient at office or workplace rather than staying at home in PC.
Personally I would prefer remote work but that's because my work is really venue-independent. I agree OP's points, you have to create the right working space even if you work remote. Setup a clean and quiet place to work, change your clothes even if it doesn't necessarily mean that you wear suit at home, organize your time and use it effectively. That way you don't have much trouble working remotely. Considering wasting too much time and money on travel, you may spend these time and money wiser.

As somone who has worked in freelance world for a long long time, I can vouch for the time management. I lived through some horrible times, and even in those days I always calculated what I had left in my time to certain periods and tried to work. Many nights of working at coffee shops, many early days at starbucks, many hard working periods at hospital cafe, all thanks to having some time management.

Its still quite hard, because it gives you the chance to not work if you do not want to, its freelance work so if you work then you earn but if you don't work then you don't earn and that gives people some devilish thoughts of "I already spent so much time on other things and got tired, I do not want to work today" and sometimes I lose to it, but usually I do gather myself quickly.

Time is the currency you ar eselling, everyone can write, code, design, whatever you do, its matter of learning and everyone can learn it, I am not some smart mastermind and say nobody else can do it, everyone in the world can do what I do, its just about learning how to do it, and that requires time, and then requires people to spend time doing it after they learned how to, and that is time too. So you are selling your time, and thats why its so important.

Depends on what or how would be the set up if your employer is strict when it comes to working hours and your cam shouldnt really be turned off or something like that which you could eventually still
focused on the work just like when you are working on a real office but the thing on what people do like is that you could really indeed do some sort of things if you do work on the convenience of your own home which you could still see your wife and children around if you wanted too and completely do some chores or activity if your work is already done and your employer isnt really that strict
when it comes to that situation.Now that we are getting back to normal then remote workplace is changing up and would be going into those offices that we've been get used to.

The remote working is a very good idea - COVID gifted to the world.

It has made everyone open in working remotely but it's been there even before the covid pandemic outbreak has come. I'm sure that many of the people here have been working remotely and happily doing those years back then.

Right now, those that have been used to working at home, don't have that feeling anymore of going back to the office. However, there's still that feeling of being social that you'll miss if you choose this space.

[Sir Legend]

Of course, the key to successful remote work is good communication and all team members know what to do, most problems occur because there is no good communication, besides that the head of department must understand the job description and be able to provide solutions if problems occur.

Working from home is difficult if you are not alone at home and there are those who will constantly distract you, especially if they are small children who want your attention, and if you are constantly distracted by household chores. Unless you have a work room at home, or an office where you can fully concentrate on work. This definitely has its advantages, but it's not as simple as it might seem at first glance.

Yes of course there were those who worked remotely before covid, but not on that scale.
Probably no more than a couple of percent worked remotely, not dozens like they did under covid. And most importantly, covid has shown that people can avoid wasting time on the road to work and pointless meetings.
Many have seen that they can work from home just as well if they arrange their place and have time left over for other things.

at least with the covid pandemic changing human behavior, many people have switched to using online jobs to make money, and it has become a habit, even though the covid disaster has not had a big impact anymore. therefore we must be able to adapt to the times in order to stay alive to achieve financial freedom. there are so many opportunities if we can find one that suits our hobbies, then we will be reluctant to return to the office, but of course this has a bad impact on the social level of society because they do not socialize with each other face to face

Covid has brought people to a different working environment and that is their home.
And some people are very happy working from home.
But Remote working too needs to have a proper quiet office space in home where one can work in private.

True, Covid has changed many things including the work system, and I'm sure Remotely's work is a trend that will occur in the future, even people don't need to come to the office so they have a lot of time and are not stuck in traffic when on the road.

To be honest, I've been working from home for almost a year now and I don't want to be alone in my home however I don't also want to disturb you while working. It just felt hard working when there is no one around you to accompany you and if you want to distract yourself as you don't want to be fully working within those hours. Also, working alone really doesn't mean that you will be fully concentrated on your work as you can also be easily distracted, and no one will be able to tell go back if you are alone.

It's better to have a workplace in your home while also knowing that there is someone out there when you needed to.

It changes a lot. Technology is more improved than before, and governments in third-world countries started investing in IT infrastructures and getting new equipment for security. I am also a remote worker (from a Government worker to a freelancer ). Working remotely is great, with no traffic, no need to shower, and I don't need to budget my money for my transportation and food while at work; it could save money. Most of the advantages mentioned by the OP are here though there are some distractions like kids playing; so far, I have any complaints from my setup; now I think it's because I can manage my time well, and I have a small work room just intended for work purposes.

[jakdanyel]

I don't think working remotely is a good thing. It is much better to work in an office environment than to work at home. It can be difficult to focus on work when working outside the workplace. Everyone's work style and character are different, of course. For example, I get lazy when I work at home. It's also a grind to do work at the house where you live regularly:( That's why I don't like doing work at home at all. Nevertheless, I respect those who like to work in this way.

I think that in order for remote work to be more efficient, it is necessary that the person who supervises you is constantly in touch with you. This is necessary so that you do not break off from the work you are going to do and do not postpone your work. The person working in your senior position should definitely talk about the job by calling you by voice and video, in addition to texting. In this way, you will not be distracted from work, but you will feel like you are in the office.

Its a must thing.!

If your computer/pc would be placed something like on your living room or simply on your bedroom then it would really be just prone into your family members for you to get distracted.Im not saying that its bad but
when it comes to office or working hours then you should really be still serious despite on being on the convenience of your own home.

Its true that these distractions are the only problems you would be facing when you are working remotely.Some might able to tolerate it and some cant really just able to do so and its a problem.
Some do even mind off and thinking about social interaction lacking which is true but its really easy to deal off with with these kind of boredoms.

Working remotely is now a common thing, and some persons may quickly choose that option of work if offered by a company. Working remotely can become as hectic even more as working in the office if care is not taken. Before sharing tips on how to effectively manage working remotely, some major disadvantages and problems this can cause are;

Distractions and lack of boundaries
Many people work from home because they want more time to spend on their hobbies or with their family. But the lack of a concrete boundary between work and home can lead to distractions such as interruptions by the kids or doing domestic chores during work time.
Knowing when to stop
As a remote worker, it can be difficult to know when to unplug and stop working, making work feel never-ending. In one study, 39% of remote workers reported working longer hours than they were supposed to.
Loneliness and isolation

To effectively combat those issues, here are some tips;

Find the right space
Whether it’s a room in your home, a shared workspace, or a favorite coffee shop, the environment matters when working remotely. Make sure temperature and noise levels are comfortable for you, you have plenty of space for your equipment, and it’s somewhere you’re not likely to be disturbed. Look for areas that offer natural light to help you feel energized.
Set a schedule
Working remotely often means more flexibility – so you might have more choice about when you do your tasks. But while this can be a very good thing, you might find that not having such strict deadlines means work bleeds into other areas of your life, which can be stressful. So it’s important to set yourself a schedule and stick to it as much as you can.
Get dressed
No, seriously. It may be tempting to work in your pajamas, but it won’t make you feel professional. And it’s not a good look on a video call. Clothes influence our mood and emotions, so wear something that makes you feel motivated, professional and confident. Getting dressed for work will also help you mark the distinction between work and home life, helping you switch off when the working day is over.
Plan breaks
With no prompts to take lunch and coffee breaks, remote workers can find whole days passing in front of a screen. Taking a break is energizing, especially if you can get outside, so set yourself a schedule and make sure every day features at least a walk around the block. If it’s not possible to go out, get some activity going indoors.
Communicate, communicate, communicate
Working remotely requires more communication – not less. Use instant messaging and group chat to stay in the loop with colleagues and projects, video call into meetings, and above all, check in with colleagues and managers.

The biggest problem I've found is removing all distractions. It's very easy to flick on to Youtube or start skimming through somewhere like Reddit endlessly finding new trash to watch when you should be working. To me having separation of going into the office, being around different people and in an environment specifically geared towards working is best for the mind. You can stay focused on the task at hand and depending on the setting you're working in, get exposed to different people throughout your organization who you might otherwise never encounter if you're working at home. Plus you can switch off more easily when there is a physical separation of going into the workplace.

[livingfree]

I don't think working remotely is a good thing. It is much better to work in an office environment than to work at home. It can be difficult to focus on work when working outside the workplace.

It is what you think if it's easier to work in an office setup. But those people that are in a place where it's crowded and traffic is totally congested, they wouldn't want to take the hassle of commuting to their offices everyday.

And that's why the main reason for them to choose working remotely is at top priority. But for those countries that have an efficient and effective transportation, it is desirable to commute and easier to go into the office.

If you're having hard time working at home or outside your workplace, most remote workers have got their own home offices and workplaces.

Everyone's work style and character are different, of course. For example, I get lazy when I work at home. It's also a grind to do work at the house where you live regularly:( That's why I don't like doing work at home at all. Nevertheless, I respect those who like to work in this way.

I agree, we have our different likes in terms of working habits. If it's not ideal for you to work at home, that's okay. Choose what makes you excited to work.

I have experienced work outside the home and inside the house, the difference is quite drastic.
Working under pressure with others or under company rules is not easy.

We are required to be able to do work or tasks perfectly with maximum results.
In the past, I was also an editor who had to always be creative to make product photos and videos for advertising and sometimes had to leave the room to take some footage for video purposes.

And arrived in the end when I quit the company due to mass layoffs due to covid, which made me have to resign and just work at home.
It is not easy to get used to an environment without pressure and flexible working hours.

Even my sleep schedule was a mess at first and since no one was watching, laziness began to set in.
Working at home without pressure or supervision of others is not easy if you are not disciplined,
this is a responsibility that must be maintained and must be consistent to complete every work at home.

The positive thing is, I get to gather with my family every day and always have quality time for my family.

[oktana]

Distractions is one big challenge to remote workers, and one of the most relatable ones is that of our phones. It’s common that you see a notification on your phone and you want to check it out, just to notice 10 minutes later that you’re now watching Instagram reels or TikTok. I suggest that when it’s time to work, just because it’s remote doesn’t mean that you should not treat it like it’s office work. Put your phone in a silent mode and keep the tone of your workspace to be like it would be in an office. Don’t feel too relaxed just because you’re at home.

[Renampun]

Working from home has actually become a double-edged sword to a lot of workers. It would have been better if working from home remains to have fixed time setup. The problem is that there isn't to many workers. I have heard of complaints from teachers here in my place that working from home has actually made them a lot busier than it was when they worked at school. They're now heavily loaded that the time they're spending working has actually increased. So while you're working from the comforts of your home, it isn't a big deal since you're still too absorbed in your work.

working at home means you are doing two jobs at once actually, as someone who has a family, I always work on my online business and also open forums at home, so often my time clashes, my time has been very chaotic, I  can't control my time to take care of everything because my child is sick, well, I really have to do this, because everything is my responsibility, and I get through everything smoothly, I haven't worked outside the home for a long time, actually I quite miss work pressure when working outside the home lol.

if you are given a chance to work remotedly, you have an opportunity to multitask and to have additional work because you can allocate your time base on your own schedule and at the same time if you have your own fsmily, you will be having more time with them. Working at home is a blessing to everyone because you dont have to report at the office daily, especially if your location is far from your reporting site, It is very convenient to all of us. Just like me, I have my full time job while I'm doing here in forum, I can set a proper schedule in posting here after my full time job shift.

I enjoyed working from home but my main job isn't online based so i can't work it from home, When Covid-19 was started and my country was lockdown i started worked full time from my home, but now in day i worked in my office and when i back my home then i tried to work online at night.

Especially in my country where traffic is a huge problem sometimes you need to leave the house an hour or two early just to get where you want to be not to mention that public transportation in my country is a hassle and there’s not enough sidewalks to ensure safety walking in short working from home definitely saves time but might not be as economically wise for the country

Same here in my country, when we do speak about on southern cities which its already traffic, then how much more into those who do live on central or capital cities? Traffic is tremendous and you are right that you would really be that needing to be advanced for 2 hours for you to be able to get in early or wouldnt be late into your work on which it would really be just that normal that you should really be taking early if you are really that into commute or even having your own car then it would really be advisable to take early yet traffic could really mess up your schedule and going into your work late is never been that good looking or does give out that big negative reflection into your work which we know that it isnt really something that we dont like to happen.

This is why if you do see that it is traffic in your place then it would really be just that right that you should really be that early. For those who are working remotely then they would really be
that exempted into these all problems because they are really just that working in the convenience of their own home on which even myself would really be that preferring into.

2 hours just to travel to work is really a very long time and it's quite detrimental.
Working from home is indeed quite effective, but not everyone can do that because sometimes someone has to leave the house to get to work, and I think there is no other choice but to look for the right place to live that is affordable to get to work even though it will cost more money, but I think it's better for us to minimize travel time.

The responsibility of a man is great, especially if like you who already have your own family. Of course you have to be able to manage time to do work and chat with your family so that the relationship remains well established, if you can't control your time in my opinion you won't be able to calm down, especially at work, generally work must be done well so it takes time for sure so that it is not disturbed by other things. Suppose your child has recovered, do you manage your time well? Can you distinguish between work time and time to gather with family.
Work outside the home sometimes hurts the heart hahaha, I've also experienced it, a little annoyed but if you remember it there is a funny thing, also like you there is a miss with the pressure of work outside the home hahaha, although the pressure of work outside the home sometimes makes annoyed but there is a point that we will miss it.

Working at home doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re working two jobs. It may be a window for one to be able to work multiple jobs at the same time, but it doesn’t mean that you already do two jobs at once. See it as no different from how you go to the office everyday and sit on your desk to do your obligated tasks. Additionally working from home doesn’t mean you can’t get under pressure. If your boss asks you to deliver something, you’ll put in the same energy and stress because at the end of the day, you have to deliver that thing.

[Samlucky O]

I think some of us are also still working remotely.
And to anticipate distractions when we work, we can communicate with family members that when we are in front of a computer or laptop, we ask them not to disturb us.
Maybe sometimes they will come up to us and have a chat but try to let them know that we are working.
After we work for a few hours, try to take a break to unwind and regroup with them while chatting.
If working remotely, we need to talk to other family members so there won't be any misunderstanding between us.

That was what I was thinking as well. We can be working remotely fr home. but the challenges we normally face is that family members and children will always disturb us, because they think that you are just playing with your mobile phone not knowing you are working as well, but romotely. Sometimes when my family tries to make noise when am on system I usually let them know that am working.

Working from home has actually become a double-edged sword to a lot of workers. It would have been better if working from home remains to have fixed time setup. The problem is that there isn't to many workers. I have heard of complaints from teachers here in my place that working from home has actually made them a lot busier than it was when they worked at school. They're now heavily loaded that the time they're spending working has actually increased. So while you're working from the comforts of your home, it isn't a big deal since you're still too absorbed in your work.

working at home means you are doing two jobs at once actually, as someone who has a family, I always work on my online business and also open forums at home, so often my time clashes, my time has been very chaotic, I  can't control my time to take care of everything because my child is sick, well, I really have to do this, because everything is my responsibility, and I get through everything smoothly, I haven't worked outside the home for a long time, actually I quite miss work pressure when working outside the home lol.

Absolutely agree with your observations and point but unfortunately work from home has not been so smooth as either the employee is taking this for granted or else the boss or organisation makes the employee do extra hours in pretext of saving their transportation and travelling time. I have seen companies asking their employees to do extra hours as they would be saving the travelling time and cen the tasks has been increased wherein people are forced to stretch the shift. It has to be disciplined both the ways not only towards the workers and it should be unbiased.

It is best to have your own space and also always remind your family members when you have meetings or if you are distracted because we cannot prevent this kind of behavior as we are just working at home but if you are constantly reminding and telling them it will work. This happened to me in the past few years. They thought that I was just sitting all day and not stressed about it but they were wrong. That is why I keep telling them every time I want a quiet environment.

Many distractions may make you stressed and reduce your focus at work. You need peace and comfort so that you can focus more on your work so that it can be completed within the specified time. Targets achieved from good work results will certainly increase satisfaction at work and this can increase a sense of loyalty to the company. Another advantage of working remotely is that you can set a consistent work schedule every day, such as waking up earlier to pursue work targets so you can set rest time.
Working remotely must be able to minimize all forms of chaos around the place where you work, determine a comfortable work environment so that you are more enthusiastic about working. I prefer to determine my own working hours so that I can increase satisfaction after achieving targets from good work results.

Of course, the key to successful remote work is good communication and all team members know what to do, most problems occur because there is no good communication, besides that the head of department must understand the job description and be able to provide solutions if problems occur.

Basically, working together well/compact, I admit, is the best thing of all time, because all work is done carefully and really understands the situation and conditions within the team.

Indeed, there are pluses and minuses when we work remotely or work from our own home in the presence of our own family and children. I usually always tell my children when I want to work so that they don't bother me too much because the children will still play near me even though I'm working. That's why sometimes I often use my work time when I'm in the office or when I'm in my own shop so that I can have more freedom and maximum performance at work. The only drawback is that I have to use more time for the trip, even if it's only ten or fifteen minutes to leave the house or when returning home.

In a work team, besides we also have to be able to work well together, but in a team we are also required to "together-together, work". because in fact in a work group it often happens that when there is a job, it often happens that the work group only relies on a few people in the process, while several other people do not contribute to the work. And one of the causes, sometimes in a work group there is still such a thing as seniority, where when people who have been longer in the company or who are often called seniors, when they get assignments from their superiors, they often delegate these tasks to their juniors or people who have just joined the work group. Which of course will only cause problems and cause disharmony in a work group, so that cohesiveness in the work group cannot be created.

I think that if this happens in the field, a senior giving his duties to a junior, I consider the senior to be irresponsible, and it is true what you say that if that happens it will definitely cause problems for the team, and in my opinion not include the compact that I meant above.

Agree! Most of the time this happens in a corporate company wherein seniors always give their duty to the junior level and new hires, where in fact, it's their task to be done in the first place. That's why many junior levels has been intimidated to them as if those seniors didn't go through that level. Also thos seniors still benefit from management's praises even though they are not the one who did the work but once you make a mistake, you will be blamed immediately.

I believe remote working is not for everyone, I myself are a remote worker tho I consider myself as an introverted and I don't really like hanging out with friends I still feel lonely sometimes, my coworkers are from around the world, we never meet in real life, and I don't have time to go find a friend in real life. I can't imagine if someone who are an extrovert and like to socialize working remotely, they wouldn't survive it.

I can't imagine if someone who are an extrovert and like to socialize working remotely, they wouldn't survive it.

Well, having an introverted personality seems to be very suitable for remote work. Because I think an introvert is always more comfortable working from home and doesn't want to be disturbed by lots of people around. But even extroverts often have remote jobs. I personally am a person whose type of work is flexible. Sometimes I have to go to the office but sometimes my work can also be done at home or remotely. But more work has been done in the office this year. In previous years during the pandemic I worked remotely. And yes, for those who are not used to it, it can be quite boring. Sometimes our productivity decreases. But because my work has a time limit that must be completed. So I still have to be disciplined at work even though I work from home. And then subconsciously I started to get used to it and started enjoying working from home.

[harapan]

I work remotely and I don't bother about my dressing except I'm to have a video call and they're always scheduled so I get prepared. After working remote forso log, I don't think I can go back to any other way. I guess I'll trying the dressing thing, but I don't see how it'll work for me because I don't don't feel comfortable when their are a lot of constraints. I do my work well when I'm supposed to and I enjoy it that way.

I’ve been working from home since the pandemic start and all I can say was working at home is surely more stressful and unproductive on my side because there’s a lot of distraction in my home compared when I’m working in my office. The time to start my work too is giving me hard time because it’s too hard for me to get up early morning to prepare for work in my own house without anyone who will monitor you.

I think it boils down to discipline and the kind of person you are.
Some people work better under pressure and some work better under supervision. You just got to choose which works for you. I've met someone who works best when she's given a target in a specific period. It works for her and it makes her very effective. The moment you let her just do it without a target she starts lagging behind. So you've got to figure out what works for you and pick. If you really want to work remotely and you see that it's affecting your output and your working habit negativity, I'll advice you discipline yourself but also see the work as fun and not juat work. This will be easier if you love or enjoy what you do.

This is really important, because a series of remote jobs that experience problems due to lack of communication between teams, this often happens in remote work. Remote work can actually be done well if they can communicate well, because even a little bit of poor communication can make serious problems, It is also unethical if only with miscommunication the work falls apart, even though this is trivial but it can have a big impact on work so Communication has an important role in remote work.

Also as you said, working together in doing a job will help the work to run well without any serious problems.

[bearexin]

Distractions is one big challenge to remote workers, and one of the most relatable ones is that of our phones. It’s common that you see a notification on your phone and you want to check it out, just to notice 10 minutes later that you’re now watching Instagram reels or TikTok. I suggest that when it’s time to work, just because it’s remote doesn’t mean that you should not treat it like it’s office work. Put your phone in a silent mode and keep the tone of your workspace to be like it would be in an office. Don’t feel too relaxed just because you’re at home.

It isn't a challenge to the employer but a challenge to the workers. The one that is affected the most is the remote workers because there is no supervisors, manager, or boss that is around to monitor them. Yes, phones are common because of their portability. This is why I just switch them off and place them away from my reach.

I think there is nothing wrong in relaxing. and I bet, we can relax too when working non-remotely. But like they said, everything that is over are not good anymore. This is the only thing that we should watch out for when we are working remotely. For this, I don't lay down when I'm working online because it makes me sleepy.

As for employers then they do really have those prerequisites that you do need to consider first before you would really be taking up some application on a certain job on which having that stable internet connection
and having a minimum spec requirement for your PC/Laptop is really that a standard thing and speaking literally about having communication in between co-workers then it would be always suggested
because you arent working on a space on which you could meet up face to face but something that we do speak about remote work then making those kind of arrangement in terms of handling
then it wont really be that so simple.

Now that we are living in a world on which most work nowadays could really be done remotely or could be done online. As a remote worker then it would really be that needing up those common sense
on what are the things you do need to do or making out adjustments accordingly. Efficiency and effective working would really be entirely be  depending on how
you would really be dealing with it.

Right you say, maybe some companies will require their workers to have a pc/laptop, just like me. Where I initially did not have a PC, but because of the demands of the company to have a PC / laptop, in the end I inevitably sold my motorbike and then bought a set of PCs, because what was needed was a PC / laptop in this job. But not all remote work must also be done with a pc/laptop, there are some jobs that are independent of a pc or laptop where they do not use a pc/laptop to work. So it can be concluded that not all jobs require using a PC/laptop.

Working at home doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re working two jobs. It may be a window for one to be able to work multiple jobs at the same time, but it doesn’t mean that you already do two jobs at once. See it as no different from how you go to the office everyday and sit on your desk to do your obligated tasks. Additionally working from home doesn’t mean you can’t get under pressure. If your boss asks you to deliver something, you’ll put in the same energy and stress because at the end of the day, you have to deliver that thing.

Exactly work is a responsibility no matter you are working from a home or are going outside for doing a job. There will exactly same stress and burden to fulfil the required task on a time. Some people are saying that if one is working at home will be free to do it but I will say that at office you have to work for at least five or six hours but at home you will have to work whole day as there and pressure will be more in online working as compared to physical job. People are working from home because they are not getting their desire job so instead of wasting their time in useless things they often start online working. I think every job is tough but it's our courage and interest which makes everything easy for us.

[Hewlet]

As good and rewarding as working from home can be, if you don't plan it well you might put yourself at a serious disadvantage and might harm yourself by the excesses that come with it.

As you pointed out, one of the major challenges that come with working from home is not setting a schedule and this might cause you to outwork the normal working hours thereby bringing health publication to yourself.

Another serious issue regarding working from home is that because it requires you to sit for hours doing the job, there are some health implications attached to it that if not properly managed, might cause serious damage to the person in his old age. Regarding this it's very necessary that a work from home person takes his exercise seriously and also monitor his habit so he doesn't work in a way that would be injurious to his health.

[Essential10]

By creating a quiet, secluded workspace, you can optimize your focus and concentration while working from home. Remote work definitely has its advantages. Being able to work from the comfort of your own home can save time, money and stress from commuting. This allows for more flexible schedules and the ability to create a comfortable and personalized work environment. Plus, it can often increase productivity and job satisfaction. However, it's also true that remote work can sometimes lead to feelings of boredom and lack of motivation. There are also challenges to consider, such as potential feelings of isolation, difficulty separating work and personal life, and the need for self-discipline. Ultimately, the best work environment depends on personal preference and the nature of the job.

Yes, it's true, remote work is not for everyone. Sometimes if you get a job like this, for an introvert, this is what they want, but for extroverts, this will be a problem and most likely they won't survive and there are many cases like this that happen. Moreover, work requires spending long hours in front of a computer screen or having to carry out a work assignment that takes hours in the room.

But I believe that in the end all work, good or bad, only depends on us managing the time. Whether you work in the office or at home, it doesn't really matter, if we can manage our time well, all work will be enjoyable. I'm a work at home person, but I'm an extrovert.

I think it really matter's why working in an office is a place dedicated for work and we know that place is a place assigned for our duty and we must make sure to put everything in places, Why whenever we gets to office there are some certain task which we must executes and there the environment is always influential to put that at the back of your mind while we work with our manager, or project supervisor.

But working at home just like me who does some of my task here when I am less busy I got consumed by my daughter even though I took her to the siting room she would always wants to stay with me and yet we keeps dragging over my laptop since she is watching over me while I do my posting. The bottom line is, remote work is very hard to handle especially to those that loves working and moving around their site environment and they are focused on their core duty to be productive and effective in their position unlike those who works from home.

I must say that working remotely is not for everyone because you need to consider your place and assess your surroundings if you are able to work confidently with peace and less distraction. Just like other company that offers working from home, you have to comply and to submit them that you have a sufficient room for working because of confidentiality and privacy of the work. Working from home has a lots of pros especially to those multitasker person, like what you've said, when you're not busy and you've done your work early, you have a time to your daughter and here in forum.

Yeah it's true, this is not for everyone since there are lot of things to look after just as you have mentioned above anyone who wants remotes works must either be a single girl or man who have time to work and to comply with the company policies otherwise would actually finds it difficulties to meet up their requirement just as what I myself is facing currently due to distractions all over the house.
Just imagine a woman with lot of kids how are they going to cope with such terms working from home maybe they can both agreed to be working home 1 to 2 days while the remaining days would be spent in the office working to make sure there is effectiveness & excellent in work.

Most introverts really feel at home, plus working from home is the right solution. but it doesn't match the expectations that were imagined, working at home is indeed the dream of many people, but if you don't have a sense of responsibility for the work, it's the same as being irresponsible. working from home you have to be self-disciplined and manage your own time, I feel tired. because I'm introverted but grateful to work at home and be able to see my parents and family every day

Yes, of course not everyone wants to work far from where they live, because there are many things that must be prepared if working far from where they live, such as having to arrive early to work because our place of work is far from where we live.
If we get an offer to work at home, of course this will make it easier for us to be able to work at home and of course we have to do it properly, don't let us not do it, of course this will result in us not getting the trust of the place where we work.

[DeathAngel]

To be more effective working remotely set up an dedicated workspace that is free from distractions. Create a daily routine to maintain structure & set clear boundaries between work & personal life. Utilise technology tools like project management software & video conferencing platforms to stay connected with colleagues. Prioritise communication by regularly checking in with team members & providing frequent updates. Ensure a healthy work life balance by taking regular breaks, staying active & avoiding overworking. Try to keep yourself motivated & focused by setting goals, creating to do lists & celebrating achievements.

[hyudien]

I am a person who works remotely, and only meet once a month with the workers and even then only to collect checks from the bank. Currently I serve as head of a local news media, personally I only emphasize that all tasks are completed according to a predetermined schedule, regardless of whether they are effective or not. So far there is only one rule, as long as the task is completed it means there is nothing extra that needs to be included in the rules. The downside may be that communication cannot run in real time, sometimes you have to wait 1-2 hours to get a confirmation reply. The work space is of course the main thing for storing special files in one room so that they are not lying around anywhere. Dressing formally is not mandatory because as I said as long as the assignment is completed according to the schedule I requested it doesn't matter if they wear pajamas etc because it doesn't affect the results of the assignment and it's in their respective rooms as a form of privacy that I respect.

Most introverts really feel at home, plus working from home is the right solution. but it doesn't match the expectations that were imagined, working at home is indeed the dream of many people, but if you don't have a sense of responsibility for the work, it's the same as being irresponsible. working from home you have to be self-disciplined and manage your own time, I feel tired. because I'm introverted but grateful to work at home and be able to see my parents and family every day

Definitely, for people who has lack of discipline, procrastinating the work is easy because no one is supervising. For me even-though I still use office hour, I get up at 5 exercising, get breakfast, then working until lunch to take a break, just like the people working in the office. For some people who already has family and children, they could also become distraction, the solution could just went out and find some cafe or working space. But all that being said, training our discipline is the best way.

[franky1]

i know this topic is more about inefficiency of work tasks due to comfort/laziness.. but has anyone done the opposite

has anyone noticed when working at home they can get away with doing things slower, and utilise this fact to work for 2 employers at the same time
EG having 2 devices logged in 9am-5pm and work back and forth during the day on two employers tasks to double income for same 40 hours a week

many employers have noticed.. and thats why they actually want people in the office so that people are not working 2 jobs at the same time

I think that if this happens in the field, a senior giving his duties to a junior, I consider the senior to be irresponsible, and it is true what you say that if that happens it will definitely cause problems for the team, and in my opinion not include the compact that I meant above.

I don't know what you mean by compact, but according to my understanding of compactness in teamwork, when all members are able to work together and give each other their best contribution to participate in the success of the work program that has been planned previously. So that no member feels the most burdened with the work because they get too many tasks.

Agree! Most of the time this happens in a corporate company wherein seniors always give their duty to the junior level and new hires, where in fact, it's their task to be done in the first place. That's why many junior levels has been intimidated to them as if those seniors didn't go through that level. Also thos seniors still benefit from management's praises even though they are not the one who did the work but once you make a mistake, you will be blamed immediately.

And when the junior has reached a senior level, they will do the same to new employees or people who have just joined the work group. This behavior continues from generation to generation of the workforce. On the one hand, this is good as a mental test of a person, but on the other hand, this is a bad thing because it creates its own grudge and the new member is the outlet for the grudge.

Exactly and it will happen. But, I'm trying to look at the positive side and It will feel different. If it is led by someone who has fair leadership in management, in my opinion the level of office will be active and there will be coordination in quotation marks and there will be no interference with information reaching the highest superiors. because as far as I remember, everyone's goal, especially the private sector, was to achieve 100% final progress at the end of the year.

[idarasun]

Of course, the key to successful remote work is good communication and all team members know what to do, most problems occur because there is no good communication, besides that the head of department must understand the job description and be able to provide solutions if problems occur.

Basically, working together well/compact, I admit, is the best thing of all time, because all work is done carefully and really understands the situation and conditions within the team.

This is really important, because a series of remote jobs that experience problems due to lack of communication between teams, this often happens in remote work. Remote work can actually be done well if they can communicate well, because even a little bit of poor communication can make serious problems, It is also unethical if only with miscommunication the work falls apart, even though this is trivial but it can have a big impact on work so Communication has an important role in remote work.

Also as you said, working together in doing a job will help the work to run well without any serious problems.

Oh yes, another thing is Responsibility.
Even if you work far or near if you don't have a good sense of responsibility, it feels like it will be in vain, and if someone is responsible then their work will definitely get done, whether or not there is a boss nearby. Because he doesn't care about all that (looking for face) because he only focuses on the sense of responsibility he has.

The first start of working at home was okay and work discipline was responsible for everything, free from all regulations. After several years, sometimes I get bored of wanting different things, because I work full time every day in front of a laptop. Sometimes we have to have daily activities outside of work, which is still difficult for me

I don't like the idea of working from home if you are working for a company or others. There are a lot of things that could go wrong with this. You will start losing responsibility towards the work if you do it from home for a longer period. Distraction is a thing that will come between you and your work more often as you keep doing it. It's all about keeping your mind straight. That can't be achieved when you do it in your comfort zone.

I am telling this from my personal experience. I used to work at an office before COVID hit and then I was forced to work from home. I saw a significant decrease in my work flow while working from home. I used to slack off my work and just sit around watching youtube and surfing social media like a brainless pig. I don't know about others but from what I have experienced, it's not good. When you go out and work in a workplace, you are limited by time and can't afford to get distracted. Thus you will get the job done in time.

It could happen especially because there is no one monitoring employees, you could just sit watching youtube for hours and no one will prompt you if there is no camera watching you. I have done this as well not minding what time already by the time the hunger was unbearable, it was already 3 PM and I started early morning.

But with COVID and the Pneumonia virus these days, everyone will be once again locked down. We're all gonna work at home and the kids having a Zoom class once again.

[usekevin]

Yes, it's true, remote work is not for everyone. Sometimes if you get a job like this, for an introvert, this is what they want, but for extroverts, this will be a problem and most likely they won't survive and there are many cases like this that happen. Moreover, work requires spending long hours in front of a computer screen or having to carry out a work assignment that takes hours in the room.

But I believe that in the end all work, good or bad, only depends on us managing the time. Whether you work in the office or at home, it doesn't really matter, if we can manage our time well, all work will be enjoyable. I'm a work at home person, but I'm an extrovert.

The remote work is not the easy one,not everyone get a chance for the report work will be the first thing.We need to think about the payment as the second one,because not all the remote work will pay you for the work.Some companies will disappear after their work was done.The bounties in the forum was the best example for this,not all the bounties paying now the people.The bounties before 2021 was awesome one,many earned themselves and allow the bounty hunters to earn by their prompt payments.Now many project come in the motive of self earning principles.This was main reason for many people get away from the forum and from the freelancer works.

The managing our time was the key factor for the successful person and the person who work only for the money as the employee to the firm.If you want to be the worker and the entrepreneur was in your hand and with your time managing principle in the real life.

I often wake up 30mns before my first meeting to kick off my day. I wear mostly pajamas with a polo/sweater shirt when video calls are necessary. I take naps, run errands, watch TV etc and I’m not dismissing any of my responsibilities and doing a good job at that.

It’s economically more viable for most. I don’t commute an hour each way anymore, I don’t have people up my ass for nonsensical things etc. I love working from home and I’m no less productive. I see many people here simply don’t have much self control over even basic little things. Hopefully that’ll change in time like it did with me.

I do miss being around people. It can get lonely. But worth it.

This is very relatable. I hate remote work sometime. Humans are social being not being with others is frustrating sometimes. At other times, my productivity and efficiency sky-rockets as the distractions are less and I don't have to be bothered about wearing a smily face when I am in no mood for smiling or laughing with anyone.

I also miss commuting to work every morning and back in the evenings. It is this little thing that I find the tinest joys of life. Looking at the faces of the other commuters.

I try to have a daily to-dos. My days starts at 7 in the morning unless the days when I have a meeting with colleagues in a different time zone. I wrap up usually with work by 3pm after finishing up with my tasks.

I could somewhat attest to this on which there are really moments that you do make yourself already get bored when facing up into your pc monitor all day and missing out that kind of interactive approach with other people on which i can say that it is really that pretty boring on having this kind of work set up or working from home.Yes, you could be having the convenience and the comfort on working in your own home but there are really
times that we are really that finding or looking for something specially on having that seeking of ambiance on a real work place in together with other workers as well.

It would always matter on your preference though because there are people who are introverted on which they do love on working alone and doesnt really like to socialize with other people.
There are really just to those people who are really that kind of type and this is why we cant really blame out on why there are people who do really love on
working on their own home and there are ones who do really love on doing it physically or going into offices.

It seems very boring because I personally am a worker in a circle of many people and always come face to face with many customers where I work and it will be more fun because we can find new friends or many new things when we serve many people. Well, talking about your job, maybe it's also exciting for you because you work at home and aren't too busy with other different things like jobs outside like shop employees or company sales. But yes, the feeling of boredom from working remotely will indeed fill our minds and get bored from hour to hour, but personally sometimes it is more comfortable and it all depends on each individual.

Indeed, there are many people out there who hope for a more relaxed job or work remotely with a fairly high income and many of them don't have that opportunity. Therefore, you may be lucky to be able to work full time remotely and your body is not too tired and that is an advantage that workers as shop employees or casual workers may not have.

[Smartvirus]

To be more effective working remotely set up an dedicated workspace that is free from distractions. Create a daily routine to maintain structure & set clear boundaries between work & personal life.

It really don’t go beyond this for shorts.
Most people see working remotely for something they could just do anytime they fell they’ve got time on them, not quantifying how much time they need to put in or the amount of job they’ve got to do within a given time frame but instead, work as they please.
Remote jobs and working remotely isn’t defined by the length of freewill you’ve got about the job. It’s simply you have to work from home but, the timing about these could be defined as well as, how much work you need to archive within a period.
Archiving your work goals everyday will always come with certain working principles been set and to ensure you get the consciousness of being in a working condition when you’re good to be about your job. This you would archive by actually, being official by some means in dressing and working space as related to the job.
It doesn’t very much permit for any laxity in your work schedules.

[Dunamisx]

To me, i see working remotely as an opportunity, some are looking for it but couldn't because they never see one, it also depends on the work nature that we do, what are we offering that make demands on making the production in the remote areas ad selling out in the urban areas, but the best of it all is for someone to independently engage into working on our own being self employed, work remotely and sell in the developed city.

[n0ne]

To be more effective working remotely set up an dedicated workspace that is free from distractions. Create a daily routine to maintain structure & set clear boundaries between work & personal life. Utilise technology tools like project management software & video conferencing platforms to stay connected with colleagues. Prioritise communication by regularly checking in with team members & providing frequent updates. Ensure a healthy work life balance by taking regular breaks, staying active & avoiding overworking. Try to keep yourself motivated & focused by setting goals, creating to do lists & celebrating achievements.

As said work and personal life balance is a must. Based on the senior colleague sometimes this gets disturbed, just because we work remotely. This needs to be avoided, work from home have made some seniors and leads think that we're working 24x7 for the company. Works were assigned irrespective of time and situation. Sometimes we were in a pressure to do it, if it was in the office we could've winded up during the office hours and we never think of work for the rest of the day. This kind of situations needs to be understood by the higher authorities and assign tasks.

[tread93]

Working from home was the best thing that came out of covid. Honestly wfh is more of a luxury nowadays I feel like. If you work from home then you best be a top performer or have merit to be working from home otherwise get yourself back in that office and earn it. Working from home is lazy half assed work. If I wanted to I could work from my home do all my work in the morning skate by and go play a round of golf every day but that's dishonest to my work and would take away from future success that could otherwise be attained. Don't get me wrong Working from home is great but you have to be focused without distraction and actually be working lol

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

Working remotely is now a common thing, and some persons may quickly choose that option of work if offered by a company. Working remotely can become as hectic even more as working in the office if care is not taken. Before sharing tips on how to effectively manage working remotely, some major disadvantages and problems this can cause are;

This is the dream job that I am looking for because we can organize work according to ourselves even though the company gives targets and does not necessarily have freedom for its workers. Remote work only started to grow after Covid-19 and especially in my country, this has only just developed and been introduced generally because of face-to-face restrictions at that time. Of course there are positive and negative values associated with working remotely and it depends on what kind of work you are in.

If anyone says that the success rate using remote work patterns is small then I am sure they do not understand the sophistication of technology, unless work cannot be done remotely. I prefer to work like this compared to having to go to the office in the morning and come home at night because our freedom is much greater and it's just a matter of taste for freedom at work.

The pandemic gave a lot of opportunities for people to explore possible sources of income online with the use of the internet. I just believe that some people perform best when they are in their comfort zone, as they don't have the pressure to meet the expectations of anyone else in the field since they are working from home where they can just submit their tasks.

Some companies allow people to be free from the rest of their time once they finish all the tasks given to them, so what you have mentioned is going skating or golf every day.
But yeah, I agree that once you are distracted it might as well impact your work that is why there's still some work that is mandatory to work in the field to avoid this kind of scenario.

  Those who work remotely are usually people who are selected and have a high work track record and are able to adapt to current technological developments and are used to it. His duties are usually special, for example providing clear direction regarding decision making by presenting data and facts if at any time he cannot be present at work.

being able to control remote work is commonplace in the current era, because of the limitations of distance and time, this is an effective way to control it. especially during the recent pandemic, many people also worked from home, they communicated with each other long distance, but also still produced. Therefore, we should always be able to adapt to developments over time so that we can use them well to support our activities.

Because he doesn't care about all that (looking for face) because he only focuses on the sense of responsibility he has.

Someone who has a job of course they have to be responsible for the work they have, because it is clear that they work there so they should be responsible for their work, if they are not responsible it is better from the start not to work. And also when they don't have a job it should be as a man must have a job because basically many things must be his responsibility. As a man, it is certain that they have responsibilities not married or already they still have their responsibilities This cannot be hidden even not only men, women also have responsibility for their work, because there are also women who focus on their careers so they must be fully responsible for their work or career.

Many people waste their working time because they are bored with their jobs and maybe they are looking for other things that can make them happy even though it is risky, maybe there are people who are bored with their jobs and look for other things as an outlet, but there are also people who run other things that have an impact on their main job or ignore their jobs, well here they have lost responsibility even though it is relatively small. My advice is that if they are bored with their main job, it is better to ask for a day off to find new things or take a little vacation outside of work, and return after the day off is over. Maybe this is more effective than looking for new things during working hours that make the main work disturbed, after all only a fool who ignores the work he has, there is no way we want to lose what we already have, and if you already have a job it's better to keep it better can be promoted. So if people have a good mindset, in my opinion they will take responsibility for everything that should be their responsibility, because they have a good mindset so there is no way they will take off their responsibilities that have become their own obligations.

I prefer to work like this compared to having to go to the office in the morning and come home at night because our freedom is much greater and it's just a matter of taste for freedom at work.

In fact, working in the office or at home both have different levels of freedom, for example your freedom when you work in your own home without a boss beside you or away from the supervision of your own boss. Meanwhile, those who work in the office and away from home also have freedom in certain sectors, such as being away from their partner or children, which in general can also be an obstacle to working when they don't want to play outside the house. But you will not be free from being monitored by your own boss when you are in the office.

Those who work remotely are usually people who are selected and have a high work track record and are able to adapt to current technological developments and are used to it. His duties are usually special, for example providing clear direction regarding decision making by presenting data and facts if at any time he cannot be present at work.

I also often find people like that in my life where they often leave home to work and give directions to other workers in the office or at certain companies. Usually such people are people who have important positions in a company or office so they spend more time traveling than in their office. However, we also have to be more aware that not everyone can be like that, so we have to look at a more general sector in matters like this so that the understanding can be clearer.

being able to control remote work is commonplace in the current era, because of the limitations of distance and time, this is an effective way to control it. especially during the recent pandemic, many people also worked from home, they communicated with each other long distance, but also still produced. Therefore, we should always be able to adapt to developments over time so that we can use them well to support our activities.

In this era, the more valuable thing in work is time other than our own energy and thoughts. Because if we are able to use less time to complete more work by relying on technology and other supporting devices for a lot of work, I think people who can do that are very smart and extraordinary people. Because when there is more free time, it will certainly be easier for us to use that time for other work. So no time can be wasted even if we just do it from our own home in better ways and also make it easier for us to do it.

Are traditional professions the sole method to fulfill duties? Why not broaden our understanding of labor and duty in a rapidly digital world where Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are redefining financial paradigms? Bitcoin is the commitment to a decentralized value and effort system, not just an investment. Digital asset management rather than a title offers a break from the 9-to-5, sometimes constraining job. This future outlook may help you balance job and responsibility.

Taking time off while bored at work is crucial to productivity. We must accept that our century provides unique paths to fulfillment and responsibility. Bitcoin investing, blockchain research, and gig economy labor can be rewarding and demanding. These careers often offer more time and effort flexibility than traditional ones. Breaks are good, but shouldn't we encourage exploring these digital frontiers of work and responsibility? They must start a financial revolution, not just make money.

  Those who work remotely are usually people who are selected and have a high work track record and are able to adapt to current technological developments and are used to it. His duties are usually special, for example providing clear direction regarding decision making by presenting data and facts if at any time he cannot be present at work.

Indeed, not every staff is allowed to work from home, but that doesn't mean they're smarter than those who visit the office first thing in the morning. The company also demands punctuality from the staff who work in their houses. Most times they work harder than some staff in the office, due to the complications involved with working at home. Distractions do occur, kids running around the environment, roommates trying to engage in a conversation, and environmental noises. Which distractions, alters the concentration one thinks he'll get while working from home. And if the problem is not sorted out, the worker might experience lesser productivity working in the comfort of his home. Similar things also happen in the office environment, having colleagues checking up on you, and coming to your desk to discuss and seek help. A person who performs well by completing his daily tasks in the office will do a great job while working from home. If he maintains the same discipline of managing distractions.

The pictorial atmosphere of escaping the rigorous stress that has to do with traffic jams and car breakdowns while on our way to the office and back home boosts the idea of working from home for almost every staff. But, once the structural design of fixing our environment to be work conducive, is missed. The whole idea gets difficult and the person seems to experience more difficulty working from home than in the office. There are hundreds of advice for dealing with the challenges of working from home, which Op stressed out in this thread, about being prepared to work and positioning our brain like we're going to work in the office. However, the loneliness of not chatting physically with colleagues can lead to boredom. The best of it is making sure the work doesn't get pilled up such that we now miss out on our daily life after work. The luxury of working at home has made workers work overtime and helps single people with no kids or roommate, isolate themselves from society, derailing productivity.

Some challenges also affect productivity; and difficulty in cooking quality foods. Junk foods are common for such workers, as their time isn't scheduled anymore. They can end or begin the day at any time. Missing out on their targets, and carrying it over to the next day can be quite hectic, and the person wouldn't focus more on cooking good food or taking a break to visit an eatery. Hence, they usually fall back on preserved foods, which easily affects their productivity, just to reckon back to the hefty duties that await them. It never gets easy, working anywhere, especially around people who don't do similar work. There's a reason why offices were made, for people to focus and be monitored by their bosses. It's still okay, to work outside our homes, maybe in a favorable coffee shop or shared office spaces, to reach the peak of productivity. I've seen many workers in this category, who still complain about the stress that accompanies working from home. That's why some offices joggle it for staff, sometimes home workers will be invited to come work in the office.

^ It's best if they joggle so that one will not be so isolated from their officemates for the whole duration of lockdown. I think this thread resurfacing again is very timely.

While the work-from-home staff gets lazy in cooking their food, they could just order food like pizza. The comfort of working from home I think is still worth more than having to travel and risk every day with the life-threatening virus.

Mostly the users which have their plans can work remotely, if a person is working through its plans and he know how to achieve the target he had given to himself or somehow he had given that challenge or target by the society then surely he have to learn more valuable things in some days.

Also the person should be passed by many of his present difficult situations. Why not the person is taking care of his plans in order to achieve the success unless or until he is stuck by some hard hits.

We arent on a pandemic now so this kind of concern would really be that least not that in consideration but if these things turns out to be that again to come out specially on having pandemic situation
then having a remote work or WFH would really be that recommended and suggested and this is something that would really be very relevant in speaking about your own safety since you wouldnt really be
that exposed from other people. The pros on working remotely is that you would really be that working in the convenience of your own home.You wont really be needing to face up that
traffic on everyday plus you are really that being together if ever you do have your family.

Nothing beats out on having that kind of good feeling on which while you work you can see your family at the same time. Efficiency of work output
will really be just that still the same with those people who are in concern about into this regard. Making up some deadlines and other work
that you would be needing to finish wont really be that much of an issue.

I get what you're saying about remote workers often being super motivated go-getters who can roll with the punches when it comes to figuring out new tech and working solo.  They usually have a solid history of kicking butt on projects and can still give clear instructions and lead even without being in the same physical space and 

having the option to work remote can be clutch for companies that want to bring on and keep ace talent on board.  It gives the employees way more freedom and independence to structure their days.  It's also just cheaper for the employers since they don't gotta shell out as much money on fancy office spaces and other random expenses that come with having everyone together under one roof.

[terrific]

Working from home was the best thing that came out of covid. Honestly wfh is more of a luxury nowadays I feel like.

I agree, it's more of a privilege these days because there are companies that have allowed their employees to work remote due to the pandemic.
But then, they realize that it's still best to go in an office setup for them to have network and see their employees face to face. Those that are used to WFH setup, won't go back to the former setup and that's why if you're in a company that allows WFH, that's a privilege and luxury.

As someone who has been working from home for the last two and a half years, I think I have a more productive work performance due to this. In particular, I don't need to wake up earlier every morning for go to the office and sleeping more by saving on the preparation process and similar processes allows me to start the day more energetically. Additionally, as a smoker I don't have any problems due to nicotine deficiency since I smoke during working hours. On the other hand, being more comfortable in terms of clothing at home and being able to handle some household chores when the work volume is low is definitely a huge advantage for me. So, while all these advantages actually make me feel more comfortable as an individual, how do they increase my work performance? Actually the answer is quite simple;

The comfort of not being in the office environment during working hours, the peace and happiness of working from home, the comfort of working from home and various other reasons help me focus on my work more efficiently and this way I show the best performance I can. In summary, I think that working from home is a working style that helps increase the productivity of many staff as it has various positive effects on the individual. Of course, the advantages of working from home are not misused by malicious people.

   Working remotely can be a great way to increase flexibility and productivity, but it can also come with its own set of challenges. I learnt a few things from working remotely over the period of time. Tuck your phone away, preferably out of sight. You don't have a supervisor staring over you or regulating you so it's crucial you don't allow these things to distract you. I have time limits on social media and I have a customized “do not disturb" setting where only my kids and wife can reach me.
  Create a designated period to check emails and other communications from team members and supervisors. You should have a designated time to check correspondence unless that is your specific job. Usually every 1–2 hours I will check any correspondence. My supervisor doesn't micromanage but you may have one that does. Make sure you communicate and understand your expectations for communication. Remote work gives you the freedom to have a healthy work-life balance, but also the opportunity to be your most productive self.

Those who work remotely are usually people who are selected and have a high work track record and are able to adapt to current technological developments and are used to it. His duties are usually special, for example providing clear direction regarding decision making by presenting data and facts if at any time he cannot be present at work.

When Covid-19 struck us forced to follow the long-distance work system because of obstacles and finally many people could adjust. But it is true that working long distances must understand the internet and technology as a work tool because if not it is impossible. The generation who lacks understanding of technology will actually have difficulty in carrying out their duties and this is proven when the Covid-19 occurs where many lay people are difficult to work long distance.

In fact, working in the office or at home both have different levels of freedom, for example your freedom when you work in your own home without a boss beside you or away from the supervision of your own boss. Meanwhile, those who work in the office and away from home also have freedom in certain sectors, such as being away from their partner or children, which in general can also be an obstacle to working when they don't want to play outside the house. But you will not be free from being monitored by your own boss when you are in the office.

Back again to each person and whether they master the technology to work at home or not and depending on they work in a sector that supports work that can be done outside the office. In principle, working remotely must have the strengths and weaknesses and if someone can do it optimally it will not affect. But it is different when work in the office is not supported to be done at a distance/home because of work talking may depend on the sector of what person works because not all work is suitable for outside the office.

Someone who has a job of course they have to be responsible for the work they have, because it is clear that they work there so they should be responsible for their work, if they are not responsible it is better from the start not to work. And also when they don't have a job it should be as a man must have a job because basically many things must be his responsibility. As a man, it is certain that they have responsibilities not married or already they still have their responsibilities This cannot be hidden even not only men, women also have responsibility for their work, because there are also women who focus on their careers so they must be fully responsible for their work or career.

Many people waste their working time because they are bored with their jobs and maybe they are looking for other things that can make them happy even though it is risky, maybe there are people who are bored with their jobs and look for other things as an outlet, but there are also people who run other things that have an impact on their main job or ignore their jobs, well here they have lost responsibility even though it is relatively small. My advice is that if they are bored with their main job, it is better to ask for a day off to find new things or take a little vacation outside of work, and return after the day off is over. Maybe this is more effective than looking for new things during working hours that make the main work disturbed, after all only a fool who ignores the work he has, there is no way we want to lose what we already have, and if you already have a job it's better to keep it better can be promoted. So if people have a good mindset, in my opinion they will take responsibility for everything that should be their responsibility, because they have a good mindset so there is no way they will take off their responsibilities that have become their own obligations.

Are traditional professions the sole method to fulfill duties? Why not broaden our understanding of labor and duty in a rapidly digital world where Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are redefining financial paradigms? Bitcoin is the commitment to a decentralized value and effort system, not just an investment. Digital asset management rather than a title offers a break from the 9-to-5, sometimes constraining job. This future outlook may help you balance job and responsibility.

Taking time off while bored at work is crucial to productivity. We must accept that our century provides unique paths to fulfillment and responsibility. Bitcoin investing, blockchain research, and gig economy labor can be rewarding and demanding. These careers often offer more time and effort flexibility than traditional ones. Breaks are good, but shouldn't we encourage exploring these digital frontiers of work and responsibility? They must start a financial revolution, not just make money.

Of course not, there are still many other jobs that someone can do to generate profits, such as long-term investments, if they do it well and consistently this will of course produce profits in itself. And of course this also involves responsibilities that must be carried out so that undesirable things don't happen, how do you do that? by taking responsibility for everything,  it will produce something good, but if they don't take responsibility for it, it doesn't seems like it will produce anything good So what they do must be their own responsibility because of course we all want profits in work or business and even investment.
 
Does this mean someone has to work continuously? What I mean is don't force yourself too hard to keep working,  because someone will definitely feel bored,  where if they do work non-stop like that it will make them bored with the work they are doing. Also with the development of technology today, of course many people already know about Bitcoin, although not everyone  People who already know about Bitcoin will probably invest for a long time in this case, but of course this also has a high responsibility because making profits cannot be done easily.  So whatever they do they must be responsible for what they do in order to produce their own profit.

In everything, of course, there will always be advantages and disadvantages, including working remotely or WFH. Certainly with WFH we can make preparations more relaxed than having to go to the office, for example if we have to leave 1 hour earlier than the time of entry to work with WFH we don't have to. However, I do find WFH a little boring, because if we are used to communication or meeting people, with WFH we can't do that. If I can choose which one I want to do more, then I want to keep going to the office, but on the other hand the time to go to work is a problem for me, because I have to fight great laziness. Lol

The last line in your second paragraph is quite confusing. Could it be elaborated more, regarding the impact malicious people can have on the advantages of working from home? And how malicious people who work for a specific company from home, can affect the rules of their company. While you've got a nice regulation of your working hours at home, there should be a possibility of fewer distractions in your vicinity. Kids are my biggest challenge, whenever I work from home. Unless they are sleeping, I wouldn't have enough time to focus. Late hours are my best time, but I'd cherish to sleep better. The advantages you've mentioned are true, especially the house chores and the extended sleeping hours. Yet it depends on the volume of the work on our desk. Sometimes it gets too hectic that, those working in the office will have enough time than staff working from home. Especially during double-tasking. It usually feels like working from home changes the hand of the clock for such staff, but time still flies and they get caught up with lots of activities including the house chores.

Then inter-switching favorable habits won't help some staff, wonder how you're able to enjoy your habit alongside the tasks awaiting you every day to deliver to the office. I've noticed that staff who engage in recurring habits that require taking more sticks than one, end up falling asleep and running out of time. Thereby postponing the delivery hours on their schedule list or to-do list. Being able to control the urge to engage in such habits while in an environment where the person is allowed to practice it, is quite a higher level of self-control. Don't know if you understand what I mean, but it'd be great if you shared more, if you don't mind, about how your intake of sticks every day contribute in staying efficient while working from home. To many it'll be one big disadvantage, surprised you also turned it into an advantage.

I understand your problem with work-from-home distractions, especially with kids. A common challenge, right? Working from home is flexible yet blurs personal and business life. Malicious actors can exploit these blurred lines. They may use a remote worker's flexible schedule to overwork them because they're always available.This undermines work-life balance and creates unreasonable goals. We must defend defined boundaries and not confuse flexibility with availability. How about using technology to manage time? Setting office hours at home or using time-tracking apps might change everything.

I understand your concern about productivity despite constant distractions. It's difficult yet doable. Self-discipline and a good work environment are crucial. Can we design a temptation-free workspace? We must learn to equate that area with productivity. Moderation and careful decision-making are key to the stick habit. Though enticing, what if we used these pauses as incentives after completing tasks? This turns distractions into motivation. Finding the balance between discipline and indulgence that boosts productivity is key

I get the point of both of you. One is concerned with productivity due to the personal life and focus of the employees on their work, and one is concerned with having more time with yourself and your family when working from home which is manageable as long as you know how to manage all your tasks throughout the day. Both are correct and have enough reason, it's indeed difficult yet doable by having self-discipline and by improving individual time management skills .

Yet, it still depends on the person. As also someone working in a company, I saw and heard from other people that they can be more productive when they are at the office than when working from home. Some cannot focus on work if they are at home as they can be more productive if they are in the office with their co-workers. Which is unlike some other people who can do the complete opposite of this.

I mean, even with having the key points you have mentioned, you can't easily handle yourself if you know that you are not fit for that kind of set-up.

Distractions is one big challenge to remote workers, and one of the most relatable ones is that of our phones. It’s common that you see a notification on your phone and you want to check it out, just to notice 10 minutes later that you’re now watching Instagram reels or TikTok. I suggest that when it’s time to work, just because it’s remote doesn’t mean that you should not treat it like it’s office work. Put your phone in a silent mode and keep the tone of your workspace to be like it would be in an office. Don’t feel too relaxed just because you’re at home.

It isn't a challenge to the employer but a challenge to the workers. The one that is affected the most is the remote workers because there is no supervisors, manager, or boss that is around to monitor them. Yes, phones are common because of their portability. This is why I just switch them off and place them away from my reach.

I think there is nothing wrong in relaxing. and I bet, we can relax too when working non-remotely. But like they said, everything that is over are not good anymore. This is the only thing that we should watch out for when we are working remotely. For this, I don't lay down when I'm working online because it makes me sleepy.

It could be a challenge to the workers but that’s if they don’t know how to be committed to work. Your boss doesn’t have to be around you for you to focus or get your work done. Like I said, when one wants to work remotely, you have to respect your working hours because you’re paid for it, additionally, you should be committed to it whether it’s paid or free service. For those who can’t do the proper thing on their own, there are some company that won’t supervise you, but will fire you if they don’t see the due result.

Working around an environment with such distractions as kids and roommates doesn't have any solution to setting office hours with phones or laptops. The possible solution could be discipline as you said. Sometimes I'll put on headsets to notify people around that I'm not in for discussions or to avoid noises from kids. But, nothing is more effective like leaving the home to a nearby library or coffee shop. Where quietness and focus can be attained. Think of the fun we can get from kids, as similar to or above the distractions they can offer us at home. They can easily take away the headset or cry till we attend to them. Sometimes moving away from the house to a work conducive space is better. The second paragraph of your response is inspiring. The bigger distraction is our habits. Inbuilt behaviors control us from the inside. But when one applies the use of the habit as an incentive after completing our task has a huge advantage on the worker. It'll facilitate his energy during work so that they'll go and take sticks or do what pleases them.

I'm sure everyone must have experienced the disadvantage of such self control method. Humans who are deeply rooted in the habit can offer quantity over quality or inferior outputs to quickly end the tasks given to them and rush into the habit. Things like that can escape completely in an environment we are not allowed to practice it, like a shared office space. Otherwise, one day we can be carried away by the joy of the habit and perform below average. Thereby risking productivity in the long run, if the person now normalizes delivering low-quality results. And remember the boss may not complain, they'll think the low quality is fine with the company, hence it keeps getting worse day by day until their boss can't take it anymore. Some of these habits like smoking, sex, and tv shows can consume lots of time. Leaving the worker with little time to battle with the loads of tasks sitting on his table watching him enjoy his habit. I'm not generalizing this, but we can't determine when we'll be victim of such things, while trying to enjoy our habits at home where we work.

Working from home was the best thing that came out of covid. Honestly wfh is more of a luxury nowadays I feel like.

I agree, it's more of a privilege these days because there are companies that have allowed their employees to work remote due to the pandemic.
But then, they realize that it's still best to go in an office setup for them to have network and see their employees face to face. Those that are used to WFH setup, won't go back to the former setup and that's why if you're in a company that allows WFH, that's a privilege and luxury.

In everything, of course, there will always be advantages and disadvantages, including working remotely or WFH. Certainly with WFH we can make preparations more relaxed than having to go to the office, for example if we have to leave 1 hour earlier than the time of entry to work with WFH we don't have to. However, I do find WFH a little boring, because if we are used to communication or meeting people, with WFH we can't do that. If I can choose which one I want to do more, then I want to keep going to the office, but on the other hand the time to go to work is a problem for me, because I have to fight great laziness. Lol

There are people that are definitely at their best moment with WFH and don't want to get out of that setup. And there are also those folks that like to socialize with their co workers personally. So, as a worker, find what you are comfortable with and what's going to make you more productive.
But to me, I find more productive if the WFH is going to be permanent for most companies for the positions that are doable.

I'll be starting to work from home on the first week of 2024  and I'm starting to hate it. While I'm typically not a sociable person, I still find it easier to work in an environment where I see a couple of dudes chatting or doing their work. I opted to work 4 days at home and 1 day at the office just to keep my sanity. Working from home might be comfortable, but it sure does remove productivity when you're someone who's easily distracted by anything. Also, time tends to run a lot slower when you're at home so you'll have to really lock in to your work and exert more effort to be focused on your tasks at hand.

So far, I think the pros outweighs the cons of being at home to work for the common worker, but humans are social beings, and physical interactions are way better than having to chat or video call someone. It will get old pretty fast, and you have to work extra hard to keep your pace steady.

[Captain Corporate]

I have talked about time management before, but now I want to talk about something else. I think its quite important to not give up on your regular life tasks just because you have to work. Recently, I had some problems in my life, so all my time has been either handling the problems in my life or working, I have done absolutely nothing else, I have about 5 hours on Saturdays, and about almost all day on sundays that are left for me, but aside from that I don't think I have more than 1 hour per day left for myself per day during the week days. This is easy way to say "well I do not have to make my bed, I need to go work right away", or its easy to say "I will just order food from outside, I don't have time to cook" and all that, its quite easy to just avoid everything else. Don't. You need to end up doing those things, would not take more than 2 minutes to make your bed, won't take more than 5 minutes to make your own coffee instead of ordering, won't take more than 15 minutes to cook something simple, they are all things that will give you incredible freedom, I literally do the dishes as a meditation now, I love chores around the house, it gives you incredible fresh mind.

That's certainly true about having a lot of distractions that shall affect your productivity. But you have to weigh things and if you've chosen that, there has to be some reason behind it that you like most. Yes, we all need to socialize but you can still do that off-work hours to whomever you can.
Anyway, with WFH setup, we still need to fight our own battles with it whether we like it or not.

[panganib999]

Anyone who said that working from home has been nothing but a menace to their productivity is massive buffoon for not optimizing their workspace. Picture this, in the normal work-setting you're not supervised 24/7 by your superiors, and yet you're doing your work unattended. With wfh and tools that literally give your company screenshots of your current screen at regular intervals, you say you can't work well? I say you have to optimize your workspace to be made for working. Setting aside a room for office, and actually making it look like an office so you're not tempted to take naps and sleep while you're supposed to be working. Wearing attire that would ready you for that unexpected meeting with the executives or whatever, and energizing yourself for the day with healthy meals instead of taking another takeout chinese food are just a few things you could integrate into your lifestyle to make that change.

[barisbilgili]

It could be a challenge to the workers but that’s if they don’t know how to be committed to work. Your boss doesn’t have to be around you for you to focus or get your work done. Like I said, when one wants to work remotely, you have to respect your working hours because you’re paid for it, additionally, you should be committed to it whether it’s paid or free service. For those who can’t do the proper thing on their own, there are some company that won’t supervise you, but will fire you if they don’t see the due result.

If someone is responsible for their work, they will certainly complete their tasks well even if their boss is not near them because they are not doing work that is their responsibility to get recognition from other people because they are responsible for the work given by their boss.
I agree with you, being far from where we work, we have to be very disciplined in terms of time, because it takes time to get to where we work, so we have to be early to move to the place to work so that we don't get late to get to the place of work. If we cannot discipline ourselves during this time, our boss will certainly look for someone else to take our place at work.

Now in terms of work, there is no job that suits us, so we have to get used to it. I am also one of those people who change jobs with the aim of getting a job that makes me comfortable, and to be honest I didn't find the job I was looking for. From there I realized that it must come from ourselves, any work if we can make the atmosphere comfortable it will create the comfort we are looking for.
I then thought, if we look for something we are looking for then it will be difficult to get or even impossible, not looking for it but we have to create it ourselves.

I agree with you, just like on my experience, I always said to myself that I really want to work with minimal supervision but when the pandemic hits and the company issued an Assets that we will use in working from home, turns out I'm not productive, not like when I'm working at the office, but days and months passed by and now I'm used to it. I can easily hit the target work as early as I can because of my flexible time but just like the other, I created myself a boundary between work and life balance which I know is very important to have. It's just that, everyone needs to have a self adjustment because everything can be learn so easily.

Working from home should be a choice for some staff who are close to their place of work. However, some job openings are strictly remote. Many companies tend to send a few staff, maybe the techies, to work from home. There won't be any need for them to come to the office every day if their task can be achieved remotely. In a few conditions or scenarios, the staff can decide to work in the office if they choose to work remotely. With the excuse that he won't be able to work efficiently at home. Unless he's mandated to work from home regardless of his excuses, then he may have some grace period if he doesn't perform well, as he already submitted a request stating his reasons earlier. The company can be strict on those who accept to work from home but don't deliver a good job or miss work hours or Zoom meetings. Hence, it's crucial to open up to the company, if we can't be disciplined enough to do the work-from-home program. As cool as it may sound, working from home is not simple. We always need a supervisor present to perform a great job. Working from home is like becoming a semi-boss, who decides when to work or rest. The journey gets difficult every day, as the staff has been acquainted with working in the office. Being disciplined for a long, can be problematic when we do one thing for long.

That is true, the ideal job that we're wanting to have is hard to find. But it's not impossible, there are people that have found theirs so congrats to them.
While that's hard to find, there's no option if we're in need to bring food to the table. Any job that we may be hired, there's no need to have a second thought if it's going to pay us decently and you can be the one to make it comfortable for yourself on how you're going to bring it.
Actually, that's true. Because there are people that don't like their jobs but eventually, they start to like it because of the vibes they bring to themselves.

Not liking your job and still doing it? Why is that, because I'm confused, I'll stick to any job that foots my bills, and trust me when I say, I'll give in everything for the best results, it's encouraging to watch someone you know have grown to become successful in the system, that's all the motivation you need to remain balance. Who are we to rejects or turn down valuable jobs? As long as it's longterm and foots our bills, we just mellow and accept it and still be persuading for our dream jobs, which most people have losen patience but they can be ready to embezzled all the earnings from the jobs.

On the time that we are experiencing some struggles then we would definitely be that needing to deal up with things even if its against with our interest. Lets say that we've found some job but it is really not just in line with your interest then it would really be just that hard to accept it out but on the time that you are experiencing some problems then this is where things do start to make you realize that you shouldnt really be choosing on whats your interest on things. Yes, you could apply for another one but you cant really be able to make yourself to be so sure that you would be able to get the job that you are wanting into. We do know that competition is really that high when it comes to job seeking on which other people would really be liking to look for some job too because surviving nowadays is never been that simple
or easy.

Doesnt matter on what are the jobs that you do able to have whether offline or online, as long it does fit out and make you do able to earn then this what matter the most. Just like me on which i had applied on a job
which is really that too far with my expectations but since i dont have any choice because i do have a family to feed then you would really be needing to adapt on whats up into your front.
If you do choose yourself on being choosy on the things you are really that dealing with then its up to your own choice.

[idarasun]

Of course, the key to successful remote work is good communication and all team members know what to do, most problems occur because there is no good communication, besides that the head of department must understand the job description and be able to provide solutions if problems occur.

Basically, working together well/compact, I admit, is the best thing of all time, because all work is done carefully and really understands the situation and conditions within the team.

This is really important, because a series of remote jobs that experience problems due to lack of communication between teams, this often happens in remote work. Remote work can actually be done well if they can communicate well, because even a little bit of poor communication can make serious problems, It is also unethical if only with miscommunication the work falls apart, even though this is trivial but it can have a big impact on work so Communication has an important role in remote work.

Also as you said, working together in doing a job will help the work to run well without any serious problems.

However, if I were in that position, I would never consider miscommunication a trivial matter, because if I underestimate a small thing it will trigger a big impact as you said. So I think we should be serious about our work even though it looks simple.

I myself have experienced what you said, where I got a job by force because I needed money to survive but I didn't really like the job, because I also had a desire to work in a company that I wanted but it was not easy. It is rare for people who have an interest in working in a job that they like and they get the job, but what I know is that many of them get the job is a job that they don't like, my experience in this case. when I didn't like the job I had but because of the needs that had to be fulfilled so I forced myself to be able to accept everything well, and over time I also felt comfortable with the job that I didn't like at first. From this I learned that we only need to adapt to new things in order to accept them and run them well, and now I can do this job happily and always excited every day even though there are some work pressures that make me lazy to work, but because it's normal so I can accept it well without thinking about anything else or even resigning from the job I got. And by running the work that I run, I don't just work here, I also always submit job applications to the job companies that I want because even though I already feel comfortable with the work that I run doesn't mean I have to stay continuously. of course I also want to have a development where I also want to have my own job company so that I can recruit my friends who are still unemployed. because I want to create jobs to help the economy of my friends or other people.

because at this time looking for a job is not an easy thing, it is very difficult to get a decent job. in my country there is a requirement to pay first in order to get into a company that guarantees, but unfortunately I have experienced something that is not desirable. where I paid the requirement with a fairly high value and at that time I was told to wait for a job recruitment call, but I waited for a long time it didn't happen, not with a job recruitment call, there was no interview call and what made me sick was that the person who gave the requirement was my own brother. I don't know how my brother thought so he could do this bad thing. So in my opinion, I am still careful in looking for a job, especially those that are conditional on having to pay to be able to join a company because it cannot guarantee that we can join the company we are applying for.

[Winterfrost]

Someone who has a job of course they have to be responsible for the work they have, because it is clear that they work there so they should be responsible for their work, if they are not responsible it is better from the start not to work. And also when they don't have a job it should be as a man must have a job because basically many things must be his responsibility. As a man, it is certain that they have responsibilities not married or already they still have their responsibilities This cannot be hidden even not only men, women also have responsibility for their work, because there are also women who focus on their careers so they must be fully responsible for their work or career.

Many people waste their working time because they are bored with their jobs and maybe they are looking for other things that can make them happy even though it is risky, maybe there are people who are bored with their jobs and look for other things as an outlet, but there are also people who run other things that have an impact on their main job or ignore their jobs, well here they have lost responsibility even though it is relatively small. My advice is that if they are bored with their main job, it is better to ask for a day off to find new things or take a little vacation outside of work, and return after the day off is over. Maybe this is more effective than looking for new things during working hours that make the main work disturbed, after all only a fool who ignores the work he has, there is no way we want to lose what we already have, and if you already have a job it's better to keep it better can be promoted. So if people have a good mindset, in my opinion they will take responsibility for everything that should be their responsibility, because they have a good mindset so there is no way they will take off their responsibilities that have become their own obligations.

Are traditional professions the sole method to fulfill duties? Why not broaden our understanding of labor and duty in a rapidly digital world where Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are redefining financial paradigms? Bitcoin is the commitment to a decentralized value and effort system, not just an investment. Digital asset management rather than a title offers a break from the 9-to-5, sometimes constraining job. This future outlook may help you balance job and responsibility.

Taking time off while bored at work is crucial to productivity. We must accept that our century provides unique paths to fulfillment and responsibility. Bitcoin investing, blockchain research, and gig economy labor can be rewarding and demanding. These careers often offer more time and effort flexibility than traditional ones. Breaks are good, but shouldn't we encourage exploring these digital frontiers of work and responsibility? They must start a financial revolution, not just make money.

Of course not, there are still many other jobs that someone can do to generate profits, such as long-term investments, if they do it well and consistently this will of course produce profits in itself. And of course this also involves responsibilities that must be carried out so that undesirable things don't happen, how do you do that? by taking responsibility for everything,  it will produce something good, but if they don't take responsibility for it, it doesn't seems like it will produce anything good So what they do must be their own responsibility because of course we all want profits in work or business and even investment.
 
Does this mean someone has to work continuously? What I mean is don't force yourself too hard to keep working,  because someone will definitely feel bored,  where if they do work non-stop like that it will make them bored with the work they are doing. Also with the development of technology today, of course many people already know about Bitcoin, although not everyone  People who already know about Bitcoin will probably invest for a long time in this case, but of course this also has a high responsibility because making profits cannot be done easily.  So whatever they do they must be responsible for what they do in order to produce their own profit.

Talking about long term investment. It will be nice to enter into an investment for a long period of time only when you have something that is sustainable to cover all you expenses till the investment will ripe and yield results. I wont advice those who are new to business or investment to go into a long term thing when he/she is still struggling to stand strong. It will surely affect them because they are not financially buoyant and sometimes they might develop the habit of tempering their investment little by little till there is nothing left. Business and investment is something should be planned and prepared for if not it will not be successful unless the person becomes lucky.

Also, if you love or have passion for the type of work you ae doing you wont get bored at all. Seriously, i have see many persons go into what they love doing and i see them doing ti with happiness for long as technology is increasing they are adapting the technology into the work. Unless you are referring to the type of work where the person is not in control or is working for someone else. Yes, in that case the person can feel bored and at a pont of time would want to stop the job and find something else doing.

Why is that, because I'm confused, I'll stick to any job that foots my bills, and trust me when I say, I'll give in everything for the best results, it's encouraging to watch someone you know have grown to become successful in the system, that's all the motivation you need to remain balance. Who are we to rejects or turn down valuable jobs? As long as it's longterm and foots our bills, we just mellow and accept it and still be persuading for our dream jobs, which most people have losen patience but they can be ready to embezzled all the earnings from the jobs.

Because we're in a modern world where most people work with the jobs that they don't like. The battle today is just all about surviving and bringing food to the table.
That's something new to those that might be new as well on the job market but this isn't new anymore even to the old ones. Working on a job that is not your forte but still works on it.
Anyway, eventually you'll like it when you get used to it.

Working remotely is now a common thing, and some persons may quickly choose that option of work if offered by a company. Working remotely can become as hectic even more as working in the office if care is not taken. Before sharing tips on how to effectively manage working remotely, some major disadvantages and problems this can cause are;

Distractions and lack of boundaries
Many people work from home because they want more time to spend on their hobbies or with their family. But the lack of a concrete boundary between work and home can lead to distractions such as interruptions by the kids or doing domestic chores during work time.
Knowing when to stop
As a remote worker, it can be difficult to know when to unplug and stop working, making work feel never-ending. In one study, 39% of remote workers reported working longer hours than they were supposed to.
Loneliness and isolation

To effectively combat those issues, here are some tips;

Find the right space
Whether it’s a room in your home, a shared workspace, or a favorite coffee shop, the environment matters when working remotely. Make sure temperature and noise levels are comfortable for you, you have plenty of space for your equipment, and it’s somewhere you’re not likely to be disturbed. Look for areas that offer natural light to help you feel energized.
Set a schedule
Working remotely often means more flexibility – so you might have more choice about when you do your tasks. But while this can be a very good thing, you might find that not having such strict deadlines means work bleeds into other areas of your life, which can be stressful. So it’s important to set yourself a schedule and stick to it as much as you can.
Get dressed
No, seriously. It may be tempting to work in your pajamas, but it won’t make you feel professional. And it’s not a good look on a video call. Clothes influence our mood and emotions, so wear something that makes you feel motivated, professional and confident. Getting dressed for work will also help you mark the distinction between work and home life, helping you switch off when the working day is over.
Plan breaks
With no prompts to take lunch and coffee breaks, remote workers can find whole days passing in front of a screen. Taking a break is energizing, especially if you can get outside, so set yourself a schedule and make sure every day features at least a walk around the block. If it’s not possible to go out, get some activity going indoors.
Communicate, communicate, communicate
Working remotely requires more communication – not less. Use instant messaging and group chat to stay in the loop with colleagues and projects, video call into meetings, and above all, check in with colleagues and managers.

These are some great tips and while it can seem like common sense, many people can miss basic things that make working from home tolerable. Personally I love the sociable side of going into the office and having more interaction with people during the week, even though I spend a lot of time on calls during the day it is still completely different to being there is person. Having that physical separation of the work space allowed my mind to switch off to work, because it can be far too easy to blend your day with lots of interruptions and end up spending too long working away. This seems to be a common problem because a lot of businesses must be seeing low productivity with the drive to get people back into the workplace.

[junder]

Basically, working together well/compact, I admit, is the best thing of all time, because all work is done carefully and really understands the situation and conditions within the team.

This is really important, because a series of remote jobs that experience problems due to lack of communication between teams, this often happens in remote work. Remote work can actually be done well if they can communicate well, because even a little bit of poor communication can make serious problems, It is also unethical if only with miscommunication the work falls apart, even though this is trivial but it can have a big impact on work so Communication has an important role in remote work.

Also as you said, working together in doing a job will help the work to run well without any serious problems.

However, if I were in that position, I would never consider miscommunication a trivial matter, because if I underestimate a small thing it will trigger a big impact as you said. So I think we should be serious about our work even though it looks simple.

of course so, it should be so, no matter what kind of job you have and no matter how simple the work that is carried out must be carried out properly, even if the work is simple but done remotely it still has to be done as well as possible because it is our obligation to carry out the work itself.

The key is good communication, do not let miscommunication occur in the work, small or large work that is carried out if done with a long distance must be able to do the best possible to be able to keep the work running properly.

Of course not, there are still many other jobs that someone can do to generate profits, such as long-term investments, if they do it well and consistently this will of course produce profits in itself. And of course this also involves responsibilities that must be carried out so that undesirable things don't happen, how do you do that? by taking responsibility for everything,  it will produce something good, but if they don't take responsibility for it, it doesn't seems like it will produce anything good So what they do must be their own responsibility because of course we all want profits in work or business and even investment.
 
Does this mean someone has to work continuously? What I mean is don't force yourself too hard to keep working,  because someone will definitely feel bored,  where if they do work non-stop like that it will make them bored with the work they are doing. Also with the development of technology today, of course many people already know about Bitcoin, although not everyone  People who already know about Bitcoin will probably invest for a long time in this case, but of course this also has a high responsibility because making profits cannot be done easily.  So whatever they do they must be responsible for what they do in order to produce their own profit.

Talking about long term investment. It will be nice to enter into an investment for a long period of time only when you have something that is sustainable to cover all you expenses till the investment will ripe and yield results. I wont advice those who are new to business or investment to go into a long term thing when he/she is still struggling to stand strong. It will surely affect them because they are not financially buoyant and sometimes they might develop the habit of tempering their investment little by little till there is nothing left. Business and investment is something should be planned and prepared for if not it will not be successful unless the person becomes lucky.

Also, if you love or have passion for the type of work you ae doing you wont get bored at all. Seriously, i have see many persons go into what they love doing and i see them doing ti with happiness for long as technology is increasing they are adapting the technology into the work. Unless you are referring to the type of work where the person is not in control or is working for someone else. Yes, in that case the person can feel bored and at a pont of time would want to stop the job and find something else doing.

yep that's right, a long investment can generate profits if we can run it well, it doesn't waver when one day because it has a price drop. and this long-term investment is done by certain people, not everyone can do it well, where there will be a journey that is not smooth, there must be some things that will be opposed to the long-term investment that is done. and these two things, namely business and investment must be done well, as you said must be planned and prepared, that's right, these two things must be planned as well as possible, must know how and do what so that this can run well, and must be prepared carefully financially, where it is to do a visible business. if for investment it might be different again.

maybe that's how I myself have adapted to a job that I don't like, and I can like a job that I didn't like at first. the work interests that people have are different, I think finding a job is difficult. So if you already got a job, it would be nice to keep it until we have a job that we like or is more suitable for us.

I've been doing a home-based online job for a few years, then I added crypto trading, which I do three times a week, depending on the market situation. I'm in charge of the time, and I don't have a boss to follow.

This is what online income is all about; it's a good feeling that we get income via the internet, and then I'm still with myself if it's family or children, and we can go out to bond when we eat at a restaurant or fast food or go for a walk in a beautiful place with beautiful scenery.

This seems to be a common problem because a lot of businesses must be seeing low productivity with the drive to get people back into the workplace.

A person who works for a fixed salary will always be more effective in an office workplace, since at home there will always be things to do that will distract you. But if you get paid for the work done, then you will be equally motivated both in the office and at home.

If there is a good team in the office, then perhaps this will encourage you to go to work, but for me this is not the most important factor, I can work both at home and in the office and I don’t see much difference for myself, perhaps I like working at home even more, of course, if no one distracts me.

Working from your living room definitely has some nice parts, like not fighting traffic or wearing real pants.  But with the good comes the bad - not having a boss can make it way too easy to binge Netflix instead of doing actual work.  The work/life divide gets real muddy when your office is down the hall from your bed and  it's tough to flip the I'm clocked in switch when you never technically clock out. 

Staying focused gets hard without other people around doing their thing too.  At a real office, seeing everyone else grinding motivates you to look busy too.  But when it's just you and your dog at home, its a battle to not just play fetch all day.  Procrastination can sneak up quick.

So in short - work from home flexibility rocks but it takes some serious self-discipline.  If I didn't have bills to pay, I'd probably just watch TV and never meet deadlines.  Good thing I like to eat food and have electricity.

Now in terms of work, there is no job that suits us, so we have to get used to it. I am also one of those people who change jobs with the aim of getting a job that makes me comfortable, and to be honest I didn't find the job I was looking for. From there I realized that it must come from ourselves, any work if we can make the atmosphere comfortable it will create the comfort we are looking for.
I then thought, if we look for something we are looking for then it will be difficult to get or even impossible, not looking for it but we have to create it ourselves.

That is true, the ideal job that we're wanting to have is hard to find. But it's not impossible, there are people that have found theirs so congrats to them.
While that's hard to find, there's no option if we're in need to bring food to the table. Any job that we may be hired, there's no need to have a second thought if it's going to pay us decently and you can be the one to make it comfortable for yourself on how you're going to bring it.
Actually, that's true. Because there are people that don't like their jobs but eventually, they start to like it because of the vibes they bring to themselves.

It just so happens that I often share stories about work with my friends, and most of their stories are more or less the same situation. Yes, they familiarize themselves to make themselves comfortable, and from that familiarization, habits emerge that make them really comfortable.
Even from some of my friends they always complain and when they meet they always say to quit, and the fact is that until now they are still working in the same place.
When I talk to my friends who want to quit their jobs I always say, think well and if you really want to quit then we should look for another job first while still working. Because one thing I always remember, that our heaviness or discomfort at work is better than discomfort and pressure when looking for a job.

And now that we are back in the normal, employees are required to go back to their desk job now. But as least though, for the majority we have experienced working from home. Although for me, I have experienced it way before the pandemic and I will agree that it has some advantages and disadvantages.

So it depends on the individual itself, I mean you still need to wake up if you have a early job and stay for 8 hours. I won't advice to just TV or anything though, just focus on the job and complete it like what you normally does in the office.

I myself have experienced what you said, where I got a job by force because I needed money to survive but I didn't really like the job, because I also had a desire to work in a company that I wanted but it was not easy. It is rare for people who have an interest in working in a job that they like and they get the job, but what I know is that many of them get the job is a job that they don't like, my experience in this case. when I didn't like the job I had but because of the needs that had to be fulfilled so I forced myself to be able to accept everything well, and over time I also felt comfortable with the job that I didn't like at first. From this I learned that we only need to adapt to new things in order to accept them and run them well, and now I can do this job happily and always excited every day even though there are some work pressures that make me lazy to work, but because it's normal so I can accept it well without thinking about anything else or even resigning from the job I got. And by running the work that I run, I don't just work here, I also always submit job applications to the job companies that I want because even though I already feel comfortable with the work that I run doesn't mean I have to stay continuously. of course I also want to have a development where I also want to have my own job company so that I can recruit my friends who are still unemployed. because I want to create jobs to help the economy of my friends or other people.

because at this time looking for a job is not an easy thing, it is very difficult to get a decent job. in my country there is a requirement to pay first in order to get into a company that guarantees, but unfortunately I have experienced something that is not desirable. where I paid the requirement with a fairly high value and at that time I was told to wait for a job recruitment call, but I waited for a long time it didn't happen, not with a job recruitment call, there was no interview call and what made me sick was that the person who gave the requirement was my own brother. I don't know how my brother thought so he could do this bad thing. So in my opinion, I am still careful in looking for a job, especially those that are conditional on having to pay to be able to join a company because it cannot guarantee that we can join the company we are applying for.

For those people who dont have any choice then they would really be just simply accepting their fate since they dont really know on where to go and since we do know that competition is really that high when it comes to job and other opportunities then you wont really be that too choosy when it comes to the job on whats vacant. Even if it would really be that not part of your interest but since you do need money then you would really be just that simply accepting that. For most people or woker then they would really be just be abel to adapt and survive and later on they would really be loving their current jobs as the time goes by.
We do know that there are people who do easily adapts and just accept on what they do currently have but there are ones who cant really forget. They would really be doing their very best on finding for something
new that it would really be that in line with their hopes and interest.

Working remotely? There are jobs on which you could really be able to choose and seek for and the qualifications would really be just that depending on the job that are really that been seeked.
If you are someone who do really love on working remotely then it would really be your chancace to have one, but we know that competition would really be still there.

Because one thing I always remember, that our heaviness or discomfort at work is better than discomfort and pressure when looking for a job.

your friends are stuck in a rut, and you know it. We all do, don't we? The cycle of complain-and-stay is as common as it is frustrating. Trouble is, comfort leads to inertia. It's natural to want to take the easiest route, but at what cost? Your suggestion to look for a job while they're still working is more than just good sense; it's a way for them to regain their independence. But isn't there something more important going on? The job market today is a beast that is always changing and requires flexibility. When your friends are constantly unhappy with their jobs, aren't they losing out on chances to grow professionally and personally? They need to understand this: the pain at work is only temporary, but the staying in the same place for a long time. It's very important that you play the straight-talking realist. You're not just giving them advice; you're also pushing them to take charge of their jobs. Shouldn't they listen now?

[idarasun]

However, if I were in that position, I would never consider miscommunication a trivial matter, because if I underestimate a small thing it will trigger a big impact as you said. So I think we should be serious about our work even though it looks simple.

of course so, it should be so, no matter what kind of job you have and no matter how simple the work that is carried out must be carried out properly, even if the work is simple but done remotely it still has to be done as well as possible because it is our obligation to carry out the work itself.
-snip-

The person you describe is very important and even very reliable. But I think people like that will be rare and rare to find, right? But actually there are factors that influence people to become like that. Among other things, mutual respect/respect for each other, even between subordinates and superiors, I think this will create things like what you said.

Yes you are right, complaining is a trait that will always be inherent in every individual and there is nothing wrong with complaining once in a while, as long as we don't give up, not just in work matters, but in all aspects of life. I would even question when someone says they never complain at all.
Basically what I'm saying is based on experience, for me there's no way I can say that and try to give them that advice if I've never experienced it myself. In other words, what they're experiencing is something that I've also experienced, so I know exactly what they're feeling because I've experienced it too.
This is where it's sometimes important for us to share our stories with friends or others, because I think that's already half of the solution we need.

I don't know about that, I just make sure that if we have a remote job we should be able to be responsible properly. maybe if people like this are hard to find, and if like that we should be one of them. where I also have a remote job that must be done properly, because it is my own responsibility.

respecting each other is what should be done, because everyone has sympathy for each other and this makes us have to respect each other, it's natural like that, but there are people who we already respect but they don't know themselves, and people like this tend not to have many friends. And also if you don't have many friends it will be difficult for work, for example work that must be done remotely, where person A doesn't want to communicate with his friend B but work leads them to have to communicate for the smooth running of their work, and this might cause problems in the future. so in my opinion mutual respect is a must.

For me, having some kind of routine has been the key to staying productive.  I try to wake up around the same time every day, throw on something decent instead of pajamas, and work at the desk instead of the couch.  Setting aside blocks of time to focus on work tasks without getting distracted by Facebook or Netflix has taken some discipline.  I'm still working on finding the right balance between stretches of focused work and taking regular breaks to rest my eyes and stretch my legs.

It's definitely an adjustment but having structure helps me remember I'm still at the office, even if my office is now in my guest bedroom.

[0t3p0t]

Working from home has actually become a double-edged sword to a lot of workers. It would have been better if working from home remains to have fixed time setup. The problem is that there isn't to many workers. I have heard of complaints from teachers here in my place that working from home has actually made them a lot busier than it was when they worked at school. They're now heavily loaded that the time they're spending working has actually increased. So while you're working from the comforts of your home, it isn't a big deal since you're still too absorbed in your work.

Yeah this is true. I had teacher friends as well that was fully loaded when it comes to modules during the pandemic. They told me that they need to work double time just to reach quota and finish all tasks before deadline. They even told me their tears fell without even noticing. Working remotely depends on what kind of job we are in just like BPO companies that offers work from home during pandemic. The best of 'em all was being a Bitcoiner on this forum just like we were enrolled to a signature campaign where we can manage to work anytime anywhere without boss and as long as there is an internet connection we're good to go.

[decodx]

I'm totally on the same page here.  This whole pandemic thing has really shaken up how we do our jobs.  A bunch of companies are letting people work hybrid now, which I think rocks for a lot of folks.  You get the perks of doing your thing at home in your PJs if you want, while still being able to hang out and chat in-person sometimes too.  For me that's the best of both worlds.  I love rolling out of bed at 8:58 for a 9 AM meeting once in awhile and  so having both options is clutch.
