HOW TO BE A WORK-FROM-HOME-BOSS-BABE
Our ‘at home offices’ are back gals. Miss Rona just doesn’t want us to be the boss babes we know we are and she sucks! We know that it's been a rocky time and working from home has its flaws. Finding the motivation to keep pushing through without your work friends around you can be hard so we wanted to give you some of our top tips that help you stay on it and motivated when working from home during lockdown…
Who's ready to boss this lockdown?
PLANNING
Organisation is something that seems super hard to get into but once you’ve nailed a solid routine and know what tasks and errands the week ahead holds - you won’t look back! Our Work From Home Desk Planners are IDEAL for staying on track and ensuring you smash the next week and achieve your goals.
We are all about manifesting at the moment. If you haven't heard of it (um, where have you been?) it's the practice of turning your dreams into reality. If you see it and feel it, you will achieve it, gals. Right now, we need all the positive thoughts we can get!
GETTING READY FOR THE DAY
Sometimes it’s nice to simply roll out of bed, grab your laptop and work in your cosy duvet but when you’ve done that one too many times a week, you can begin to feel a little blue and somewhat demotivated. Gal, you don’t need this! If you make a little more time in the mornings to get up, get showered and get into your fave loungewear set, your day will feel more productive instantly.
We love throwing on a Scrunchie for our Zoom calls - messy hair, don't care. Not washed your hair for a week? No one will know when you've got your hair in a messy bun #LockdownChic
MOVE
Moving, walking and getting some fresh air in your lunch breaks is so important chicas. Breathing in the fresh air and having a change of scenery is the best way to break up a long day of work and as soon as you get back home, you’ll feel refreshed and ready to crack on. Make sure you take a moment to breathe, eat some lunch and drink some water too. Too much concentration and screen time is not the one hun. Look after yourself!
If you haven't discovered Podcasts yet to keep you company on walks/runs, you're seriously missing out. We recommend "Sh**ged, Married, Annoyed" to completely switch off and have a much needed laugh.
STATIONERY
Having all the gear AND some big ideas is the best kinda boss babe combo. Make sure you’ve got what you need! Cute pens and one of Coconut Lane's super cute Notebooks are a no brainer. Writing and making notes that aren’t on a screen can feel really productive and get those creative juices flowing!
More of a journaling gal? Whether you're trying to have a more positive mindset, set weekly goals or write down things that are troubling you, journaling is a great way to process and de-clutter your mind.
EARLY NIGHTS
As tempting as it is scrolling through social media and funny memes before bed, try to stop it! Your phone should not be the last thing you see before you go to sleep. It keeps the brain ticking and awake which can effect a good nights sleep. Getting at least 7 hours means you will feel rested and ready to tackle a full on day of being a sass queen.
