You need to decide what you really want to do with all the time you will save from not having to sit at your desk when you have completed your work or are no longer working in the flow… You create a new, third time (between work and home life), to actually do something you’ve always wanted to.
For me, that was spending more time with my family and cycling.
What is your reason to get your work done more efficiently?
An #OutOfOffice mindset is not about giving up work & just doing what you love - because that’s almost impossible in these economic times. It’s about living a duel lifestyle; working when you’re efficient (in the flow) but as soon as you’re not, stopping and doing something else you love - not sitting there sharing pictures of cats.
I’m hunched over handlebars 200 miles a week but most days I disappear into the background of some great coffee shop, hunched over a laptop trying to do the best work I can for charity campaigns.
My sacrifice to do that - happily reducing the stuff I want to buy but also unhappily reducing the time to read websites, newspapers and magazines much anymore.
I don’t do what I want to do all the time, I’m not outside having fun all the time - I’m just very efficient with my time because I’ve always got something good I want to do.
