當你在家工作的時候,偷偷地去洗一堆衣服看起來並不是什麼大不了的事。但是沒有界限,你的一天很可能會感到混亂和支離破碎。
假裝你在辦公室,給自己一個結構。設定“辦公時間”(例如上午9點到晚上6點),然後决定什麼時候是不能接受的。
問問自己,“如果我在辦公室,我會在白天做這項工作嗎?”如果答案是否定的,那麼在設定時間之前或之後進行活動。
家務、差事和和朋友在一起的時間都應該發生在工作之外。當然,在你的午休時間接到朋友的電話,或者處理緊急任務,比如緊急汽車修理可能是很好的。但這些應該是例外,而不是規則。
When You Work Remotely, Set Boundaries Between Home and Job
When
you’re working from home, sneaking in a load of laundry may not seem like a big
deal. But without boundaries, your day is likely to feel chaotic and
fragmented.
Give
yourself structure by pretending you’re at the office. Set up “office hours” (9
AM to 6 PM, for example), and decide what is and isn’t acceptable to do during
that time.
Ask
yourself, “If I was in the office, would I do this task during the day?” If the
answer is no, do the activity before or after your set hours.
Household chores, errands, and spending time with friends should all
happen outside of work. Sure, it’s probably fine to take a call from a friend
during your lunch break, or handle an urgent task like an emergency car repair.
But these should be exceptions, not the rule.
