three tips and tricks

What 3 tips, tricks and hacks have made WFH and social distancing manageable for you?

Care to share a few tips and tricks that make it easier for you to get through your day of physical distancing?

Maybe someone can benefit from your intuitive or hard-won insight.

Here are 3 tips & tricks that are working for me:

  1. Wear a different piece of jewelry each day – I look forward to choosing which earrings to select. This encourages me to change out of my PJs on some down days, and into something that shows up in a Zoom Room. It’s a game that started when I was in quarantine and now continues as a habit becoming a tradition …
  2. Look forward to together time – a competitive family game reconnects us after a family meal. Walking a (competitive) geographically-distanced virtual Camino with my brother to replace the one that we had planned to walk together in September.
  3. No Zoom Fridays – As wonderful as it has been to connect via this great technology, I have found that I have to work really hard to technically distance from Zoom. I have to make sure I am not on an endless stream of calls, causing the days to blend into each other. I am finding that trading a screen for a physical book helps with my eyesight; trading a zoom call for a phone call feels more personal; green screens have nothing on spring greenery IRL.

One day soon all this will end.
I wonder which of my new traditions will survive the day when things return to normal.
