Been working remote and freelancing remotely for quite a bit of time and have some super specific tips I can share

  • a daily journal of your work life helps deal with isolation
  • switched from texting friends to Marco Polo, again helps with working in isolation.
  • plenty of tools available to transcribe zoom meetings
  • pomodoros helps prevent getting distracted by all the comforts of home
  • make sure you know you have a Hotspot on your phone (saved me many times when Comcast went out)
  • work remotely !== only work from home. Get out the house and work at least once a week (library, coffee shop, coworking, park, etc...)
