– I Have an apartment-kopeck piece and three young children – 8, 6 and 3 years. Before the quarantine, when I was visited by disciples, children occupied babysitter, or to give lessons was impossible. When face-to-face customers went into self-imposed isolation, my first thought was that the nanny does not need… yet my children almost ripped off online lesson. Then squarely faced the question of how now to pay for Babysitting?
According to the teacher, it is a practical consideration and forced her to be more effective telecommuting. And suddenly she was even more fruitful than usual.
– first, I reduced the price, and immediately came to new customers. Re-inviting a nanny, I was able to take the maximum number of remote students and found undeniable advantages – saves time on the road and pick-off full-time students. Have the opportunity to work with children from other cities and with the “boxers” – those who are in family education.
On remote, I always connected: created a website where they post tutorials, and each client has his own page with his “knowledge map”. If desired, the student can get assignments almost every day, and I’ll check them as soon as you complete. When the internal mode this was impossible.
Client time and more children nearby, but not disturbing… And what disadvantages udalenka?
Only one – the extra weight as a result of physical inactivity. But he’ll leave as soon as you can walk. And on the remote control, I plan to remain so. I was able to build a regime that perfectly fits my biological clock. For example, get up at 5 am, I by this time enough sleep. And at 6 a.m. I have a lesson with a student from Khabarovsk, which at that time hour daysI. I work till the evening, and in General more than in face-to-face mode, but less tired.
the 31-year-old Muscovite Olga is a web designer, to the quarantine worked in the office, but after “udalenka” says that not going back there for anything.
Only now I realized how often there annoyed! I was constantly distracted – the chief cause, then with colleagues to drink tea, then the meeting… And at home I can focus and work when it is convenient for me.. So I arranged that the most creative I have at night and during the day makes me sleepy. On remote I can afford it. I take every project a certain time, deadlines clearly observe, but in the process asking me not to pull and not to control. Relationships with superiors and colleagues in the distance have become even better.
Olga says that she has an American fiance, also a web designer who completely switched to udalenku long before the coronavirus and long said that this form of work, and even communicate the future.
– it is possible that we will even remotely get married! We have been going, but postponed due to organizational issues. And now do not understand, when we can get married. And then Jeff told me that the mayor of new York in connection with the quarantine allowed to marry by video link. Everything is real – solemn ceremony, presentation of the marriage certificate from city hall, just about the bride at home, bride, and servant in the office. Now Jeff will make inquiries of. If so, you can marry a foreigner, we will provide an electronic statement.
– Is undoubtedly the soul of introverts (people are more introverted, contemplative), – the psychologist Elena Pigolkina practices – as well as those for whom this mode of operation proved to be more effective. Many people think that to work at home predisposed people diligent, but it is not: working outside of team and schedule, people with this psycho burn out faster than others. With the greatest impact udalenku used by those who are able to quickly switch from one class to another. It is no secret that the efficiency when working from home is associated with the ability to optimally adjust the mode of activity and rest under your biological clock. But more importantly the ability to follow this regime without compromising the nervous system. Working in the office, we switch the focus from one subject to another with the help of natural “triggers”: charges for the work, the road, meeting, lunch, tea, new information, both work and private. Then again, transportation and home care with all its impressions. That is, most of us are accustomed to function in a multitasking mode. And when the day changes dramatically, our nervous system rastaplivaete, often “in secret” from us – that is, we do not understand why uncomfortable. And the reason is that before��and, especially in the regime of self-isolation, much less triggers for a natural shift of focus. Here and are tempted to “hang out” – either to work, ignoring everything else, or Vice versa – to stop working in the most extreme juice and get immersed in household chores. While according to the observations of experts, the approach of “wholesale” reduces the result in any kind of activity.
Thus, to achieve maximum impact in each of its business activity, it is advisable to set yourself the task refocus at least 5 times a day, and with full exposure to the current task. For example, every 2-3 hours of sedentary work – half an hour of physical activity, whether it’s charging or cleaning the house. Give yourself a clear Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks and try from this schedule, mealtimes will also be a “trigger.” Useful a written plan every day and come up with a special “rituals rewards” – for example, a treat or an hour just for yourself for every accomplished task.
