At Home day 80.
Day 80. Lots of habits have changed. I found the changes are for the better. I believe so. I still believe so. My daily commute time is gone now. I trade that with working on my ‘indie maker’ skills. Still struggling on work on details but I will get there. It’s just a matter of hours of experience. I also do lots of chores, So how I split the time between work and managing distraction at home?
Start early is the key.
If I am late to start on my daily routines, then I will be late on working my business as usual or ad-hoc things. I will be working on the bed for half-day or even doing calls there, which is really makes me tired, feeling really glued into my laptop. You’re gonna have a bad time I tell ya~!
I am really enjoying my lunchtime, together with my daughter. Might this is the time that she will remember for a long time since I never eat at home.
At night, I still need to feel really good, because it’s ‘me’ time. I mean, really only my time. I want my own time at home for doing things that I loved!! And I stop doing things at 11pm and straight go to bed. Except for the weekend.
Just take your time. I am still on 'working at the office’ mindset that needs to work 9 to 5 while on remote work, that’s not how it works.
Rifie, what about your social life?
My social life is still normal. Even though mostly the conversation based on text, I am still okay. What I am not okay is I miss the atmosphere while you’re talking with friends, either at the office, park, the outside, coffee shop, or while we’re having lunch or dinner. I am still 58% extrovert, don’t worry. I did a podcast with friends, talking nonsense on my Instagram Stories or just text my friends and if they’re replying back, it’s a bonus lol.
Rifie, what about the overthinking?
Cmon, it’s day 80. I stop overthink since day 79. Nah! I am a very flexible person. If I overthinking something that means that I am sensing something that will have a chance it will be 100% real!
Yeah, I am welcoming my new norm. The Abnorm.
