Organizing work from Home Tasks for Utmost Productivity
Hi there my name is Grace, I am the co-founder, owner and creator of Filipino Virtual assistance.
And today, allow me to share with you some tips on how we can organise your work from home or freelancing tasks so at the end of the day you’re very productive.
The technique in doing all of that, you have to follow these five steps that I am going to share with you.
Number 1, you have to list all of the tasks that you need to do for the day. Probably in a piece of paper or in your laptop. List everything, whatever it may be.Maybe freelancing based or the chores you have to do at home, or appointments. List everything down Number 2, you have to categorize it using Eisenhower’s urgent - Important Principle.
So number 3 is tackling the tasks under those categories, using the principle that I’ve mentioned earlier without being distracted. So when we’re talking about distractions, these are tasks which are not related to your work as a freelancer or as a remote worker.
Number is you also have to take breaks, others are focusing on work for the whole three hours and then would take an hour breaks, so during that’s when they’re going to probably play mobile games or be in social media or go outside to process some papers, so will that’s how other people would do. There are also others , who would utilize breaks of 30 minutes after working and focusing on being productive for 90 minutes.
So it’s up to you, what you are going to follow, it might be the 4 and 1 or the 90 minutes and 30 minutes type of work and break scenarios.
So it is important to do breaks because, of course our eyes need break, we need to nourish and be hydrated. We need to also keep that balance, in order for us to be even more productive.
Number 5 is evaluation, so at the end of the day, you need to evaluate what has been completed and what are the tasks which are pending, so again you have to go through your list, probably, there are other added tasks you know in your list and you have to go through and apply number 2 again, so categorizing your task using the Eisenhower’s principle, on the important and urgent tasks. It is also important that you end on time, so you will able to go ahead and maintain that work and life balance as a freelancer or as a remote worker.
That would be all for today, I hope this has been helpful, when it comes to your productivity as a remote worker because time management and being on top of your tasks is very important or key towards our freelancing success.
God bless you today and happy anniversary
