Pros & cons of working & living in the same space

#WFHlife is more complex than you think; here's why:

Working from home has pros and cons, and you must do what's best regarding your work/life balance. 

Does one outweigh the other? That's up to you to decide👆.

The pros of working from home are that it is cost-saving (no gas!), allows a more flexible work/life schedule, and it's way more convenient🚗.

The cons of working from home are a lack of personal privacy, a lack of work/life separation, and a risk of overwork & burnout from living in your workspace🔥.

So, how can you balance working and living in the same space✌️?

Create a routine

Pick a schedule that works for you. Say you start work at 9:00 am and turn off your computer at 5:00 pm – set your routine and stick to it⏰.

Set your boundaries

You're done for the day if you clock out at 5:00 pm. No answering emails, no checking for texts from your boss. Your time is precious; take control of it📆.

Build a workspace

Separating that space from your work mindset can be challenging if it differs daily. Create a specific workspace you use daily to keep your life and work apart✏️.
