During <strong>National Work from Home Week<\/strong>, it feels only appropriate to talk about working from the office vs. working from home.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll start by saying Yahoo&#8217;s &#8220;work-from-the-office&#8221; policy makes sense to me.<\/p>\n<p>At either a small company or a large one, all employees need to work closely, collaborate formally and informally, and take advantage of common areas to converse. It&#8217;s all summed up in this sentence from Yahoo&#8217;s internal memo: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/allthingsd.com\/20130222\/physically-together-heres-the-internal-yahoo-no-work-from-home-memo-which-extends-beyond-remote-workers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">We need to be one Yahoo!, and that starts with physically being together.<\/a>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Plus, I love working in an office &#8211; interacting with people, debating ideas, getting to know my colleagues better. And there&#8217;s a real sense of satisfaction that comes from attacking my to-do list and driving home with a sense of accomplishment.<\/p>\n<p>But I, like Marissa Mayer, am a new mom. And that has changed everything for me.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12397\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12397\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12397\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/image-300x226.jpeg\" alt=\"Baby Ved, working on his typing skills.\" width=\"300\" height=\"226\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12397\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Baby Ved, working on his typing skills.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After 12 years of being in an office and enjoying every day of it, I now <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/us\/en\/blog\/wfh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">work from home<\/a> about half the time. Given that I&#8217;ve loved going to work for so long, you&#8217;d think I&#8217;d be the last person to change my ways. But kids have a way of doing that &#8211; upending your life &#8211; and the funny thing is, you&#8217;re happy to oblige.<\/p>\n<p>To be sure, adjusting my work routine has required some, well, work. It&#8217;s all too easy to be distracted when you&#8217;re not in the office: There\u2019s the TV, the kitchen with leftovers and snacks, household chores, and an 11-month-old who is so much cuter than he has any right to be.<\/p>\n<p>But, while there is a plethora of distractions at home, I&#8217;ve found that it is possible to be productive. <strong>The key is putting structures in place that let you stay focused.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I have an &#8220;office&#8221; (a desk in my living room that has my laptop and a comfortable chair).<\/p>\n<p>I have multiple connectivity tools close at hand (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/office\/features\/rcmobile\/overview.html?bmid=BLOGNEW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the RingCentral app<\/a>, which lets me fire off an SMS or jump on a conference call in an instant; WebEx Connect, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/us\/en\/blog\/instant-messaging-programs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">instant messaging software<\/a> we use; and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/us\/en\/blog\/how-to-set-up-a-conference-call-in-outlook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Microsoft Outlook<\/a>, from which I can place calls with the RingCentral softphone).<\/p>\n<p>I have a schedule that is consistent and realistic. I\u2019m a \u00a0morning person, so I book most meetings and calls for early in the day. Nap time is at 11, so that\u2019s a great time for me to write or tackle big quarterly goals.<\/p>\n<p>I still have a to-do list. When I need to focus on it, I ignore everything around me just like I do in the office.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m still social. I instant-message my work buddies. I call them for meetings, as well as for mental breaks. This helps me feel like a part of the team, just as I did before.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-12396\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/large_9282408-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"large_9282408\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/>And at the end of my workday from home, I get the same sense of accomplishment I had when I was a habitual office worker. Now, even though I am not physically in the office, I am still focused on my work, my colleagues and my goals.<\/p>\n<p>I still spend a reasonable amount of time at work:\u00a0meeting with my team when we need to collaborate in person, planning for the months ahead with our creative agency, and presenting in important meetings.<\/p>\n<p>That means I can enjoy the benefits of &#8220;physically being together&#8221; (to borrow a phrase from Yahoo) when it matters.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, after several months of working remotely, I&#8217;ve realized that successful work depends on more than just &#8220;physically being together&#8221;. It&#8217;s as much, or more, about mental focus.<\/p>\n<p>If you can achieve focus regardless of where you are &#8211; and not\u00a0let your physical location determine how effectively you get things done\u00a0&#8211; you can absolutely make remote work &#8220;work&#8221; for you. Just try committing to it. I think you will impress yourself!<\/p>\n<p><em>Nisha is RingCentral&#8217;s vice president of corporate communications.
