Social distancing is a term we're seeing from health officials to keep ourselves and others safe from spreading anything unwanted! With the state of how things are at the moment, we see lots of people currently under mandatory or encouraged quarantine. If you're actively participating in social distancing yourself from others at the moment, allow us to help keep you accountable and give you ideas of how you can still make traction towards your goals. Here are 10 productive things you can do from home to make the most out of your extra time:
-
Experiment with your workout routine. If you're stuck in a workout rut, try something new! Experiment with your fitness routine and find videos on YouTube or grab recommendations for free online workouts from friends. We love this 14-minute office break yoga session to do in the middle of the workday!
-
Make that vision board. No need to run to the store and grab supplies. Head to our Pinterest for inspiring quotes and images and print the photos to pin up on your wall and remind yourself what you're working towards.
-
Organize your spaces. If you're staying at home more often, why not make it beautiful so you can feel a little more productive? Spend your time organizing your closet, the pantry, or your garage!
-
Get familiar with the state of your finances. If you've been putting off looking at your finances, now's the time! Are you putting away enough into savings so you can start that business? Do you have a family budget? We recommend using free apps like Mint or EveryDollar to keep you on track.
-
Take an online class. Learn something new and take a virtual class! If you're hoping to learn something new, there are lots of free courses! If you're wanting to support a small business and you're hoping to make traction on your personal and professional goals, consider coaching courses from The Hollis Co.!
-
Make a healthy, fueling meal at home. Try cooking that meal you typically avoid because you don't have enough time on your hands. Whether it's a delicious soup or a new salad, there are lots of healthy recipes to plan and try!
-
Start that side business you've been considering. It doesn't take going out to purchase a domain name for a website or create a business plan! What are you waiting for? There's no better time than to start today!
-
Create a donation box. If you have a dream of owning less and becoming a minimalist, take some time to clean out that closet or the garage of things you don't need anymore that could be of better use to someone in need.
-
Network online. Even though nothing beats a face-to-face connection, you can still meet people online to get the ball moving! Make plans for a virtual coffee date or hop on a phone call to connect with someone you admire or want to learn more from!
- Read a book that will help you further your goals. There's nothing better than reading a book that will help you personally or professionally. Browse through Amazon or ask a friend on social media for their book recommendations! Right now we're reading Dave's new book, Get Out of Your Own Way: A Skeptic's Guide to Growth and Fulfillment! It's available on Amazon, so you don't have to leave the house and you can get it shipped right to your door!
