Christmas may be a time for festivities but business doesn’t stop just because the office is decked with tinsel. If you’re struggling to keep motivated at this time of year, simply follow these four tips…
Maintain balance and clarity throughout your working day by injecting some organisation into your work space. A tidy environment evokes a tidy mind, after all. First, clear outdated files and head to the recycling bin. Second, remove the stack of coffee mugs. Third, use the Ilario desk tidy to store essentials such as your keys, wallet, glasses and pens. It’s important that you preserve an air of equilibrium around the space you work, so it’s best not to indulge in the festive decorations.
Joining in on the fun is a better tactic than attempting to ignore the fact that it is Christmas all around you. If you work in a city, escape from the office at midday for a hot mug of eggnog and delve into the festive season’s frivolities for half an hour. Getting your fix during lunchtime means Christmas talk won’t leak into vital business hours and you can focus on your meetings with the efficiency and brainpower you require to upkeep productivity. The world’s greatest cities are arguably the best places to be during the season, boasting cosy German markets, impressive light displays and endless gift shopping opportunities.
The anticipation of travelling is undoubtedly one of the most effective ways to stay driven at work. It’s vital that you plan new and exciting trips to look forward to for those times when you’re lacking motivation at your desk. Although Christmas brings a warm fuzzy feeling, December is a dark and sometimes dreary month. Combined with the post-festive blues, January feels like the ideal time to escape and explore a new city, island or landscape. According to Lonely Planet, Sri Lanka, Panama and Zimbabwe are some of the top countries to explore in 2019.
