Keep Your Sanity While Working RemotelyA recent PWC study found that 78% of CEOs agree that remote collaboration is here to stay for the long-term.Working remotely certainly has its perks. But, when do you hit the OFF switch? It's not always easy. Try these tips to prioritize your mental well being and a healthy work-life balance.  Create a flexible routine: Give yourself time to make changes on the fly. That's the beauty of remote work. Set boundaries: At a certain point, you need to shut it off completely. Turn all notifications off after the end of your day. Don't tempt yourself. Give yourself breaks: Take 15min and go for a walk or go out and grab a coffee. Don't feel beholden to the desk for all working hours. Declutter your workspace: A clear space equals a clear mind. You get the point.  Stay organized: A study by the IDC found a 21.3% loss in productivity when it came to challenges related to working with documents. Keep everything in one place. Standing agenda for meetings: Don't you hate when a 1-hour meeting could've been accomplished through Slack or email? To avoid pointless meetings - stick to the same agenda for each meeting.Dive deeper here.
