Without the structure of a traditional office environment, it’s easy to let your workday slip. Setting a daily schedule can help you establish a routine that enhances productivity. Start by determining what time you’ll begin working each day, when you’ll take breaks, and when you’ll finish your workday.
Having a routine allows you to mentally prepare for work and helps you maintain a sense of normalcy. Even if your schedule is flexible, having set hours for work and personal time helps ensure you stay focused when it’s time to work and relax when it’s time to unwind.
