Social distancing is here to stay until further notice, and this week it got real when my nephew’s wedding was canceled. Shutdowns (and even lockdowns) are happening all over which can leave you feeling stuck and anxious.
You have two choices: hide under the covers and binge watch Netflix all day or keep on keeping on.
I’m on ‘Team Keep On’, because being productive is important. It can give your life meaning, bring you joy, and make you happier. We need productivity in our life to feel fulfilled.
Which is why I created this…
List of 10 ideas that can help you be more productive when you’re stuck inside.
Go live and host a virtual tour of your work from home space. Share a #WFH tip (or two) for anyone who is new to the work from home life.
Host a LIVE-A-Thon in your Team Group so everyone can practice and feel more confident going LIVE. What’s a LIVE-A-Thon, you might be wondering? It’s a 24 or 48-hour event where everyone picks a time to go LIVE about a choice of topics (tell us about your fave product, how-to tip, etc.) Because there’s safety in numbers. Use a scheduling app like Calendly so team members can easily pick their date and time.
If you’re like me you have a want-to-read book pile that’s been collecting dust for years. This is the perfect time to start a virtual book club with your team and host a discussion via Zoom.
Discover all the free and super cute girly stock photos that Elna, creator of the Twins Mommy blog, shared on her blog. Use the photos to make digital “thinking of you” notes and let your customers know you care.
Plant in the garden (or clean out your flower beds) and get some sunshine to boost your energy level. Fresh air is good for the soul.
Shop or cook for an elder neighbor, family member, or someone you know who is at high risk. Good karma goes a long way.
Host a Watch Party in your Team Group and watch all the online party tips I shared last week. Then host a booking blitz to book Facebook Parties and rock those goals.
Stay active and learn a TikTok dance with your kids. Here are 15 to try out now via BuzzFeed.
Get organized so you’re prepared when life goes back to normal. You know what they say, “Luck is when opportunity meets preparation.”
Play with Canva effects and create some really cool new images for your social sites. Which is what I did here using the Glitch effect.
Ok, now your turn. Share how you’re keeping productive in the comments below.
