How to Increase Your Productivity in Your Home Office
Accomplish more while working at home
Amid the pandemic, almost everyone is working from home. There are many benefits to working from home: no commute, saving time, saving on lunch and gas money. If you struggle to stay focused by the endless distractions at the home office, this article is for you.
According to the latest research by WBM, workers are more productive while working from home. The study shows that at least 74% of business leaders responded that working from home boosted productivity by 20%. Employees are happy to spend more time with family and get done more on time.

I picked this technique from Carl Newport, writer of Deep Work (Amazon affiliate link), to work under strict conditions.

Absolutely, no multi-tasking!
