It’s a familiar scene: A deadline is looming, and you want to finish up within normal hours so you don’t have to work late and rearrange the delicate sequence of your family’s evening. But it’s not looking good. You just can’t concentrate. Your mind wanders every time your phone buzzes or the slightest distraction pops up. By the time you do find your zone, it’s almost the end of the workday and you’re not nearly as far along as you need to be. When staying focused feels like a herculean task, keep these tips in mind.

TIPS AND TRICKS


Make Your Workspace Yours
Need to find focus when working from home? This can be tough. Really tough. But one thing that helps: Do your best to make sure the kids don’t claim your workspace, whatever it may be, for any variation of playing, that they know that this space is Dad’s “office”. This sounds harsher than it is, especially in a house teeming with small children, but you’re doing it already: You already don’t let kids play in the garage, or near the oven, or in the fireplace. Set a rule early that your space is a Lego-free zone and enjoy fewer boundary-related discussions later. Try not to say, “All work and no play…”
 
Working from home with kids requires planning. These 36 strategies can help you find your groove.
