We’re now ~3 months into social distancing due to COVID-19, and many of us have been working from home for that long as well. Remote work has long been at the top of the list of perks people most want at their job, but we imagine most people didn’t expect a global pandemic as the impetus for it. 

It can be tough to adapt to remote work life when you have little experience with it in practice. Back in March, we published 26 Essential Tips For Working From Home as a primer for first time remote workers and those having trouble focusing in these strange times.

It has become increasingly difficult to stay productive and focus on work while the threat of COVID-19 looms. In these uncertain and confusing times, when there seems to be a news development every five minutes, it can be nearly impossible to pull yourself away from obsessively checking social media or turning on the news.
