Everyone dreams of cradling a warm cuppa joe and reporting to work in their pajamas. The relentless optimists amongst us did a little happy dance when our employers offered remote work. Finally—the chance to make our idyllic work-from-home dreams come true!
However, it didn’t take long for reality to settle in. We’ve learned the hard way that working from home can seriously jeopardize productivity.
A plethora of potential distractions circle around us—everything from needy children to package deliveries to incomplete chores. Remote work blurs the line between work and life, making focus a challenge.
All of the Gutsy Creatives team members work from home. With our team spread across the globe, we needed solutions to keep on track and manage ourselves independently. As a group of type-A bibliophiles with a shared love of paper and pen, many of us live and breathe by our planners.
