Create a schedule – but be flexible with it.

Be inclusive when it comes to developing, modifying, and following a schedule, especially if you have a family.

Do you need shorter work sessions and longer breaks than if you were working from an office? A few minutes between calls to stretch your legs and check the mail? Make working from home as structured as possible while acknowledging that home is not the office, and you’ll likely have to change the way you work to feel productive and set boundaries between your home as a workspace and a place to live.
