One small but impactful change that made my workday better was blocking off time for focused, uninterrupted work. I started scheduling "deep work" sessions during my day, where I turned off notifications, set an out-of-office message for non-urgent emails, and focused solely on one task at a time.

It allowed me to be more productive and feel a sense of accomplishment without constant distractions. This practice not only improved the quality of my work but also reduced stress, as I felt more in control of my time.

Setting boundaries between work and personal life in a remote or hybrid job can be challenging but is essential for maintaining productivity and well-being. Here are some strategies that can help:

Designate a Dedicated Workspace: If possible, create a physical space that's only for work. This helps signal to your brain that when you're in that area, you're "at work." It also keeps work-related tasks out of personal spaces, such as the bedroom or living room.

Set a Schedule: Stick to a clear work schedule, just as you would in a traditional office. Set specific start and end times for your workday, and be strict about logging off when the day is done.

Use Technology Wisely: Turn off work notifications after hours and use separate devices or apps for personal and work communications. Set your phone and email to silent or do-not-disturb mode outside of working hours.

Prioritize Self-Care: Schedule breaks, meals, and time for physical activities. Taking breaks throughout the day helps avoid burnout and keeps you recharged.

Communicate Your Boundaries: Be clear with your colleagues and manager about your work hours and availability. Let them know when you're offline and ensure expectations are aligned around response times.

Create Routines: Establish a morning and evening routine to signal the start and end of the workday. This can include steps like getting dressed for work or taking a walk after finishing your day.

Work with Intentionality: When you're working, stay focused and efficient to avoid the temptation of carrying over work into your personal time. If you're clear about your goals for the day, it's easier to stop when it's time to.

Not only do I admit it, I make sure I have a plan in place to fix it. I apologize for the error with the recognition that my mistake is causing others to have to do more work.

I take copious notes. Every workplace I've joined, I've carried around a notebook throughout my first couple months to make sure that I get every process outlined for future reference.
