WFH day
7:30 an early wake up for me where I get some breakfast, hang out with my dogs and enjoy a bit of the morning without having to rush off to brave the dreaded commute.
8:30 I start work and spend the first bit of my morning planning for my day, I check in with my engagement managers, if it’s a particularly busy day I will create a to do list to focus myself for the day.
9:30-12:30 this is where I get my focus work done, I will chuck on some music or a podcast and do a few hours of focus work as I find that I am the most productive before lunch. It’s important to know when you’re working your best and really utilise this.
12:30 I treat myself to a homemade lunch, this is a really great benefit of working from home, I save money and get to enjoy a nice hot meal without having to pay for a café. I will watch a show or I’ll take advantage of the slow midday and go to the gym, getting a work out in before it gets busy.
1:30 I then have a catch up with my coach, we look at the projects I’ve been on recently as well as any projects I want to get on and we do a forward plan. I have one of these catch ups every fortnight.
2:30-4 I do some more focus work and do my best to finish tasks in this time, if I have any blockers I will reach out to my engagement managers for assistance and start to plan my next day.
4:00 I use this time to wrap up my work, finishing anything that needs to be done, I complete my timesheets and schedules. Not having to commute home means I can enjoy my evening straight away; I get ready to go to a weekly pub trivia I do with some of my work friends. We haven’t got worse than 6th place yet.
