It gets you out of home mode into work mode.

So now that 80 plus percent of people, um,

You can fake your commute.

They prefer hybrid work.

So on the days that you're working from home for five or 10 minutes, set up your workstation,

That's the new model.

The future of work is hybrid.

Head outside, take a walk, check your schedule, go through what you need to accomplish for the day.

And that's a wonderful thing.

It helps with stress and burnout.

It increases your autonomy and productivity and lots of things, but you are losing your commute, your everyday commute.

Let your brain transition out of home mode to work mode.

So how can you keep that brain compartmentalization with the commute, but also have all of the benefits of hybrid work?

At the end of the day, repeat the process.

It's a way to preserve that sense of brain compartmentalization because we are all different, right?

Our home mode is so different from our work mode.

You can fake your commute.

So on the days that you're working from home for five or 10 minutes, set up your workstation,

And especially when you're working from home, it's really important to create some boundaries and even with your brain to create some compartmentalization.

Head outside, take a walk, check your schedule, go through what you need to accomplish for the day.
