More Focus At Work?
Ever since we got hit by that Covid-19 pandemic, many organizations have openly embraced the hybrid work setup between onsite and work from home setups [and it works!]. BUT the question is, is working from home optimized enough? Me thinks in a loud NO. I DON'T think so. So, do we need MORE FOCUS AT WORK? Absolutely dude. Everyone of us just need to toe the line, no questions here [supposedly]πππ
To be fair, to give MORE FOCUS AT WORK is NOT being triggered by just our hybrid work from home setup. Regardless of your political leanings OR views, let's admit it we are distracted by the changes and activities occurring across most countries. Finland. Indonesia. Pakistan. Just amongst those in the midst of their respective national elections. Ironically, there seems similar noise and turmoil whether it's pre-elections [e.g. Indonesia] or post-elections [e.g. Pakistan]. WHEN this much change is occurring around us, it can affect our abilities to think, plan and stay focusedπ§π§π§
I DON'T need to look far BUT instead ask myself, WHAT have I done to 'destress' and get more focused especially when working from home?
- I 'upped' the height of my workstation from two feet to three feet. WHY? That allowed me to alternately stand when working [because of the higher desk].
- I do talk a quick walk [even within my home] around every half an hour. DON'T get stuck seating down.
- I would stick to my To-do List [as much as possible]
So, WHAT really is our problem? It's that we tend to get distracted while working. Sometimes we feel like the tasks at hand is just too much OR that you DON'T know WHETHER you will finish it OR not. The bigger the task, the more you tend to procrastinate. And the more you procrastinate, the more you lose confidence in finishing tasks. True, sometimes, procrastinating sometimes help us think before taking action BUT more often, we end up missing a taskπ₯π₯π₯
Our takeaway? Most of the time, we are to be faulted when missing tasks. THEN we end up getting disappointed at work. THEN we might even question ourselves if we lost that passion, that drive. THEN you end up facing a problem WHERE it actually doesn't really matter right now, BUT you already think about it too much. At the end of the day, it's your WILLPOWER that will tilt for you to have MORE FOCUS AT WORKπππ
