“Let your office attire boost your work mood.”
Several psychologists have advised that employees dress up to create a work-like atmosphere, instead of joining a video conference in PJs.
An official look keeps you focused and allows your brain to believe that you are sitting in the office. So act like you are working in the office.
As we know, we are social animals; we are tempted to use social media during work time. You must avoid them or simply replace them with music.

You can reschedule tasks that you couldn’t catch up on. It happens sometimes due to some emergencies or some diversions. It is okay to be generous with your calculations.
Keep a steady eye on managing the time for your daily work. At the end of the day, you must evaluate how the day went and what tasks you made it on time, whatnot. Hence you can organize the time for the next day.
