I’ll start by saying it’s not the easiest thing to do when you are in the comfort of your own home but, it’s definitely doable. We tend to want to lounge around in comfy sweats, leggings and, even pajamas when we’re home, but we can change that.
Here are a few tips on the benefits of getting dressed when working from home. I know COIVD has set up all back but, we don’t have to allow it to take over our lives.
SETS YOUR DAY UP FOR SUCCESS
It’s like making your bed, if you don’t make your bed in the morning your day will be a little off or, if you don’t have that one cup of coffee, same thing. It throws your day off. So getting dress when working from home sets your day up for success.
HELPS YOU REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE
If you are a stylish person by nature and you find yourself slumming around your home, you can quickly forget how fabulous you are. So get up early put on something amazing and, don’t worry that you’re in your home. Get creative and wear what you want regardless of how silly it feels. I promise you’ll love it and feel great.
INCREASED YOUR PRODUCTIVITY
For those of you who work at jobs where you have to meet a quota, this tip is for you. By getting dressed it signals the brain that you’re in work mode. Something as easy as putting on a pair of trousers a blouse and, possibly shoes can make a huge difference in how you perform at work when home. This is by far is my favorite tip because I’ve seen a drastic change in the way I’ve been working since implementing this into my daily routine. So give it a try and leave a comment here or on my Instagram at coco_styles_ny and let me know if you’ve tried any of these tips and how has things changed for you at your job.
WORK LIFE BALANCE
It’s important to know when to turn off your 9-5 and transition into your personal life. Maybe you have children and you want to take them out to a movie or soccer practice. If you are in your pajamas all day you now have to start from scratch. You may also have the urge to want to stay in because you don’t feel like getting dress but, if you had gotten dress from the morning you would be one step ahead. So let’s ensure we have this work-life balance down-packed and enjoy the hours after our typical work-day is over.
