How do you keep creative juices flowing when working at home?

Make a prioritized list of tasks, then block off 30-minute slots in your calendar throughout the day. Then use Pomodoro to focus and smash each task!

- I drink coffee or mate strategically: only when I need it most, usually not in the morning. - I use noise cancelling headphones (even if I work alone) - Sometimes I listen to music, without any lyrics. Search for "study / work music" on youtube. - I tried pomodoro method few times and these days were very productive for me.

Work on a new project... unfortunately that's not always an option.

I challenge this statement: "We know that productivity is a daily challenge for remote workers." The studies show that people are generally MORE productive (13%) from home. So give yourself a break, take a walk, or exercise.

Exercise is a good one for me, If I ever have a creative block something as simple as a long walk gets my creative juices pumping again!

Love everyone's suggestions. One small trick I'd add is to get your body moving during those small breaks (I personally like to take 2-10 min breaks every 30-60 min) + add an inversion pose to increase circulation & energy levels (doesn't have to be a handstand – downward dog, legs up the wall, forward fold or even just a simple child's pose will do just fine).

I use Pomodoro technique and Social Suite, which helps me keep on top of all my social media management, marketing, monitoring, messaging, and merchant activities online at one glance: suite.social/s/producthunt

I recently watched a video by Dr. Huberman where he talks about how we are programmed to do more routine and physical activities in the first part of the day and other deep thinking, analysis and ... in the second part of the day.

I've been working from home for over 6yrs so I have a pretty good routine, but even I lose myself in work sometimes. I think its key to focus on work take incremental breaks to go walk around, in my case I'll walk my dog several times throughout the day and work it into my schedule. It helps to get up and stretch my legs, let my brain run free before coming back and thinking of work again. I think the biggest challenge is to step away when you need it. We all get burned out and knowing when to step away is actually key for creative juices to flow.

Pomodoro method!
