Do you 'dress for work' if you work from home? I started doing this over a year ago, and it's really helped my mindset, which can feel a bit wonky when you're WFH.

Just a small reminder that if you use a Stream Deck, you should probably back it up! Open up the computer app, head to Settings (the cog), then under Profiles, click the down arrow at the bottom of the screen and select Backup All, then Create BackUp. You're welcome!

When do you like to tackle your biggest tasks? Do you like to get a few "quick wins" in first thing, before you take on the big ones, or do you dive headfirst into it? I do both, depending on the day and how I feel at the time!

For all my Google friends out there, this is your monthly reminder to head to http://myaccount.google.com/permissions on ALL your accounts, & make sure you've removed access for apps you don't need anymore! They stack up without us realizing! This is a reminder for me too!

Do you journal about what happened at work? Do you process your thoughts and feelings surrounding your workday through journaling? Do you journal throughout the day, when you've finished work, or in the evening?

Just your normal reminder from me to make sure you clear all your starred emails in your email app of choice. If you still need to act on them, keep the star, if you don't, remove it! Job done! (Even better, add them to @clickup and make time to act on them!)

All of us have a work schedule, whether we work for ourselves or other people. Have you ever wondered if your schedule works with who you are and how you like to work? If you work for yourself, is there anything you can edit to improve it?

Just me with a reminder to keep everything running ticketyboo! Today, it's @waveboxio. When was the last time you cleared your images? Don't know how → Settings > Privacy & Security > Clear all browsing data uncheck everything except "Cached images and files." Voilà!

Are you scheduling regular breaks at work? You know you should be right? I know we tend to push through and just get shit done, but doing that takes longer than it would have taken you to just take the bloody break!

Just a teensy reminder to clear your desktop & downloads folders and put everything where it needs to be! Don't leave it too long, otherwise, you'll forget where they go and why you have them in the first place!!

Do you use the Pomodoro method? Do you find it helps? Regular breaks are essential to get your creative juices flowing, and I'm wondering if anyone has found that they have space for ideas when they intentionally create space in their day to have them.

Downtime is where the best and most creative ideas happen. For me, that's normally when I'm in the bloody shower without a pen! I can put all the processes in place to capture these lightbulb moments, but they mostly require a keyboard. Voice notes for the win!

Oooo, I'm loving this new index card system - mega simple but super handy to have! Does anyone else have a system like this in Notion? I don't mind admitting it's a pretty dumping ground, I can live with that. It reminds me of my old A&E (anything and everything) database, but prettier!

Taking regular breaks from our work, to stretch or go outside and smell the fresh air, really do wonders for our output. I know we all want to get things done, but our bodies need a rest, they need down time.

If you work from home and live with other people, have you clearly communicated what that means for them? Do they understand what you need? Do YOU understand their needs? Do you frequently discuss what's going on? Do they have access to your calendar?

If you're an entrepreneur or content creator, do you have themed days? Do you work on specific parts of your business on specific days? Do you have 'no meeting' days? Do you color code your days? I do this and it provides so much clarity and focus for me!
