The first quarter of 2020 included many things for the world to adjust to—specifically one shift: work from home. And just when people thought it could be a temporary practice, it became more and more permanent throughout companies across the United States. With those transitions, remote work became the new normal. Leaders of companies were left with one question when pandemic restrictions loosened up: where are their employees more productive—in the office or at home?

There is plenty of data to back the fact that employees who can work from home are just as—or more—productive. The Becker Friedman Institute for Economics at the University of Chicago surveyed 10,000 employees, with results pointing to one key finding: people said they thought they were just as productive working from home compared to working in the office.

Remote work is not going away anytime soon. And while you may be getting more done at home, be sure you have a healthy relationship with work. Randy Simon, an expert on work-life balance told TODAY that a lot of setting yourself up for work-from-home success comes down to boundaries.

Here are some ways to avoid burnout in a remote world.

Create a designated workspace

If you have just started working remotely in the recent past, you may have noticed how convenient it is not having to leave your home but feel like you can never truly leave work because it is now within your home. If that’s the case, think about creating a designated space that’s solely for work. Once you set boundaries for your own space, you should feel like you can separate work and your personal life—physically and then eventually mentally.

Virtually connect with your coworkers

Just because you’re working remotely doesn’t mean you can’t connect on a virtual level with your coworkers. If you just talk with them during weekly meetings, consider reaching out to them to plan a happy hour or a designated time to talk about non-related work topics. While you can’t simply wander over to their desk, small talk and getting to know each other can still exist within your work life.

Allow short breaks for yourself

Have you ever worked remotely and found yourself staring at your screen too long—losing track of time? If you’d been used to taking breaks within the office at one point—or simply getting up to get water or go to get lunch, don’t let work from home deter you from still taking time for yourself. Plan breaks, even if they’re just 10 minutes long. A few breaks a day will help give your mind a rest so you can fully focus once you’re back at your desk.

“Breaks are crucial,” says Cal Newport, author of Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World. “If you’re working day after day and not letting up, you will burn out.”

Put time on your calendar for these breaks if you need to, especially so your coworkers are aware of this special time carved out just for you.

Schedule time for your hobbies

You shouldn’t just schedule time for breaks—but also make sure you’re not overworking yourself, allowing room in your days or nights to practice a hobby. You are a human being after all, not a robot, and it’s normal to have interests outside of work.

“Without a daily commute, it’s easy to think that we will have so much added free time, but it’s easy to just add that time on to our workday,” shares writer and hobby advocate Betsy Ramser Jaime.

Turn on ambience videos

Working remotely means you’re not in an office and can control your own background noise. If you need extra help focusing and creating a calm work environment, check out YouTube’s different ambience videos—from a cozy cabin to a fall coffee shop to an enchanted forest. Ironically, creating a mood that makes you feel like you’re somewhere else can help you stay more present.

Take vacation (and sick) days seriously

Lastly, don’t forget to use your vacation and sick days when you need to. Just because you’re not traveling to and from an office doesn’t mean you don’t get to take time away from your job. In fact, it’s been scientifically proven that taking vacation days increases overall productivity and well-being. And if you don’t feel well but think you should keep working because you’re home, think again. Your sick days are provided to you for a reason. So use them and be kind to yourself about using them. It will help you maintain better boundaries with work, overall improving your work-life balance.

_{In the world of remote work, job search clubs can be crucial to not only landing a job, but can help also keep you from feeling isolated.}

Remember in your younger school days when you used to join extracurricular clubs? You may have been a part of the chess club, drama club, or anime club.

These clubs may have transferred into a hobby as you grew up and got busy with other things like college, internships, or moving to new places.

However, in the world of remote work, some clubs can be crucial to not only landing a job—but can help keep you from feeling too isolated. That’s why job search clubs exist. Yes, you read that correctly. These are a bit different from associations; they are clubs for adults solely dedicated to being a support group for job-hunting, providing tools for one to land their next gig. The job search can feel lonely, especially if you’ve recently been laid off or fired. Luckily, job search clubs are easier to find and join because of the pandemic.

Want to know more?

Why Should I Join a Job Search Club?

Looking for the next career move isn’t always easy, and job clubs understand that. With the goal of helping people spend less time job-hunting, these clubs typically hold job-seekers accountable by making sure they’re on track with their job search. They meet regularly and create a support system for anyone feeling particularly isolated while trying to find a new job.

These clubs also can serve as networking opportunities, with info sessions and speakers who may have previously been in the club(s). Additionally, members of the club have the opportunity to take part in mock interviews, have their cover letters and resumes reviewed, and go through training for specific job skills.

How Do I Find a Job Search Club?

We recommend starting with the US Department of Labor‘s job service website, CareerOneStop. This site provides a tool for you to search for job clubs depending on your location.

You can also most likely find job clubs in your local community, at places like the public library, community college, or local universities—with job clubs usually listed on their website.

We also recommend looking for these types of clubs on social media, as they can come in the form of Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn groups.

Job hunting doesn’t have to be a lonely experience if you’re able to utilize a job club as a resource. And you never know, you may gain new friends and connections along the way.

6 Simple Daily Habits That Will Supercharge Your Creativity

Take a second and think about the role creativity plays in your life. Do you consider yourself a creative person? Do you utilize your creative potential and carve out time for it? Do you wish you had more time to explore it within you?

While it may seem hard to describe, the dictionary defines creativity as “the ability to transcend traditional ideas, rules, patterns, relationships, or the like, and to create meaningful new ideas, forms, methods, interpretations, etc.”

We’ve outlined the importance of routines and how sticking to them will help you maintain your creative energy. Now here are some daily habits that you can put in place to help your creativity blossom—and thrive.

Journaling

As Joan Didion said, “I write entirely to find out what I’m thinking, what I’m looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear.” Taking time to write down your thoughts not only helps your creative energy flow and gets your thoughts down on paper, but also is a therapeutic daily habit. When you dedicate time to focus solely on your thoughts, without putting too much pressure on the output element, you may come up with a brilliant new idea—or simply set time aside for yourself. In fact, there are many studies on the art of journaling and how it increases one’s daily functioning, improves communication skills, and improves one’s physical and psychological health.

Meditation

Like journaling, mediation is a time dedicated to sitting with your thoughts. This can have many benefits on your creativity, especially in a world that is keen on multitasking and constantly being plugged in. Meditation can quiet your racing mind and help you get to an imaginative and creative space. In fact, neuroscience findings show that it correlates with brain wave activity—which is increased in areas associated with the creative and mystical during mediation.

Walking

There has been a long history of researchers linking creativity with many kinds of movement. And this doesn’t have to be an extreme, strenuous workout. A recent Standford study proved that walking boosts creative inspiration, especially when compared to sitting down.

“A person walking indoors – on a treadmill in a room facing a blank wall – or walking outdoors in the fresh air produced twice as many creative responses compared to a person sitting down, one of the experiments found.”

Reading

Those who are avid readers may already be very familiar with the many benefits of reading: not only does it exercise your brain and improves your vocabulary, but it also boosts your empathy and imagination. People who read literary fiction specifically are more likely to understand the feelings and beliefs of others.

How does this relate to your own creativity? Well, the more imaginative you become through other people’s work, the better you’ll be able to carry out empathy—and creativity—in your own.

Unplugging from electronics

This one may seem like it goes hand-in-hand with every tip on this list—and it does, but its importance should only be reiterated. Unplugging from electronics—even if it’s just for thirty minutes to an hour a day—can radically improve your brain’s ability to generate original thought and find inspiration from within. While the internet can be a great place to find ideas from others, it’s important to carve out some time away from it too.

Resting

Last but certainly not least, and one you may not typically think of, resting is crucial to fueling creativity. The benefits of sleep have recently been examined more, as more than a third of Americans are not getting enough sleep on a regular basis according to the CDC. Neuroscientist Matthew Walker shares in his book Why We Sleep, “Sleep is the single most effective thing we can do to reset our brain and body health each day—Mother Nature’s best effort yet at contra-death.”

If you make time for a full night’s rest or carve out thirty minutes for a nap, you are doing yourself—and your creativity—a favor. This will allow you to clear your mind, focus, and eventually become more creative in your day-to-day life.

February is Black History Month, which can be traced back to 1915, when an organization called the ASALH, led by Harvard-educated historian Carter G. Woodson, was formed. By the 1960s, the week had transformed into a full month of celebrations and was signified as a national observance in 1976.

Many organizations, outlets, and creators are honoring this month by supporting Black businesses, using TikTok to learn about it, and brushing up on Black literature.

As Dr. Cornel West said, “If your success is defined as being well adjusted to injustice and well adapted to indifference, then we don’t want successful leaders. We want great leaders who love and respect the people enough to be unbought, unbound, unafraid, and unintimidated to tell the truth.”

To celebrate Black History Month, we highlight some hardworking and artistic content creators who inspire us with their leadership and ability to use their content to connect and inform.

The practice of reading is just as important as writing when it comes to maintaining habits that will make you a better writer. If you’re wanting to improve your writing skills, we’ve highlighted some books that will help your creativity—and writing—flourish.

Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott

Known as one of the modern classics on writing, Bird by Bird by author Anne Lamott is an essential read for all writers to include on their bookshelf and have on hand. Weaving personal anecdotes in and out throughout this book, Lamott informs readers to take their writing “bird by bird,” or one small step at a time. Lamott believes in the power of writers starting small.

On Writing by Stephen King

This book is no secret to most writers. How did Stephen King go from being a janitor to one of the most well-known horror novelists of all time? He outlines this journey in On Writing, which serves as both a memoir and advice book. King also emphasizes the importance of concentration—and making sure there’s space and time for you to write. You’ll want to make sure you have this classic to carry you through your writing journey.

Zen in the Art of Writing by Ray Bradbury

You may know Ray Bradbury from his science fiction classics such as Fahrenheit 451 and The Illustrated Man. However, his essay collection on writing and creativity is typically overlooked. It contains nine different essays you won’t want to miss out on.

What I Talk About When I Talk About Running by Haruki Murakami

Did you think writing and running have no correlation? Murakami would disagree. Part memoir, part journal, part advice book, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running is also Murakami’s love letter to writing and running—and how practicing one helps his practice of the other. It’s one of the more unconventional books on the subject, but you’re sure to be inspired as he takes you with him through the process of writing stories and running marathons.

Make Time for Creativity by Brandon Stosuy

Considered “part artistic retreat, part guide to living a creative life,” this book includes advice and prompts from author Brandon Stosuy, co-founder of The Creative Independent, along with quotes and tidbits of inspiration from artists like Jia Tolentino, Hanif Abdurraqib, Matthew Barney, David Byrne, and more. It will help you reflect on your current creative practices: what they are, how they are influenced, and how they can be improved. It’s for anyone but is especially helpful for writers looking to reflect and hone in on their craft.

Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert

The title of this one implies Elizabeth Gilbert’s belief in the power of creativity—and in it, she outlines how to live your best creative life. Gilbert believes we all have creativity within us that can, and should, be utilized. With the experience of being an established writer herself, she shares inspiration and advice for writers looking to stay out of ruts and practice creativity on a daily basis.

As mentioned in our 2022 predicted trends, the overall pivot to video is here to make its mark and stay, with platforms like TikTok gaining prominence.

“We all have shorter attention spans today, and video is a way to capture those people who don’t want to take the time to read an entire article,” says Katie Leimkuehler, a social media consultant and instructor for Mediabistro’s Build a Social Media Video Strategy course.

And with that being said, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the outlook of jobs pertaining to video and film is set to rise nearly 30% in the next ten years, which is must faster than the average job.

What does this mean exactly? Well, it could be a good time for you to explore videography as a new skill or hobby if you’re interested in it. Luckily, there are different types of videographers—from corporate ones to wedding to news ones, so you’d have the ability to keep your options open to many different types of videography jobs.

The practice of videography is the practice of capturing moving images through digital video devices. A videographer must be both visually-oriented and creative while also having the ability to work independently and collaboratively depending on the number of people on their set or the size of their video team. There are two main types of videographers: corporate and freelance.

Corporate Videographers

Corporate videographers who are employed by a company typically are assigned a wide variety of tasks—doing anything from executing promotional videos to recording live events to the news. These positions are more rare to find within the industry.

Freelance Videographers

Freelance videographers, on the other hand, have more flexibility when it comes to the type of content they video on the job. For example, they have the ability to copyright their work, which can translate to them eventually getting other gigs. They can stay within one industry or work across multiple: such as weddings, documentary, product, interviews, and more.

The whole month of March is designated as Women’s History Month, and while it’s important to honor the hard work of women, it’s just as crucial to understand the startling statistics behind women working in media—and the inequalities they face every day.

We did a deep dive into the Women’s Media Center’s annual report, a nonprofit organization founded by Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem, and unveiled some shocking conclusions. Here are some startling facts about women working in media.

Women are underrepresented in the media

Across the world, women only make up 24% of news sources. And unfortunately, much hasn’t changed in the past 25 years, with the number of female news sources and subjects only slightly increasing.

According to the Global Media Monitoring Project, “In 120 nations, from 1995 to 2020, the number of female news sources and subjects increased from 16% to 24% in newspapers, 15% to 24% in radio news, 21% to 26% in TV news, and 25% to 27% online.”

2. Women working in media earn less than men on average

In 2021 across 41 Gannett-owned newspapers, women earned up to $27,000 less annually than men, according to the NewsGuild. This is around 63% of the annual median salary for their male peers.

3. Only 4% of traditional news and digital news stories explicitly challenge gender stereotypes

While there are many factors that contribute to harmful societal views of women, stereotypes and the significant underrepresentation of women in the media play a substantial role.

4. Podcasts continue to be a male-dominated space

Although podcasts may still seem like new and unconventional media outlets, the space is heavily dominated by men. Women made up half of podcast listeners overall, but men hosted 79% of the top podcasts, according to the Women’s Media Center.

5. Women journalists fear online abuse

The Seattle University Department of Communication surveyed 115 women journalists in the United States and came to shocking results. 79% of them said online harassment affected press freedom and fear of online abuse made them avoid reporting on certain kinds of stories.

6. Women make up a small percent of political and governmental coverage

Although women make up a large part of political and government happenings day to day, they’re only the subject of coverage 16% of the time, according to the Media Diversity Institute’s Global Media Monitoring Project.

If you’re startled by these facts and are thinking about what you can do to help women’s inequality within the media world, you can start with these steps compiled by the Harvard Business Review.

How important is good writing within the workplace?

Well, a few years ago, there was a survey conducted that made a strong statement about the top thing employers were looking for within a candidate. It wasn’t an ivy league school degree or analytical skills or the ability to work with a team. Instead, according to the National Association of Colleges and Employers, 73.4% of employers want a candidate with strong written communication skills.

As mentioned, that was years ago, before the pandemic, when a job seeker’s ability to showcase their writing became even more important. Grammarly’s Erica Galos Alioto highlighted in our Q&A with her, “With remote collaboration becoming standard, hiring managers want to be confident that a potential candidate is a skilled asynchronous communicator and understands how to convey tone, explain ideas efficiently, and collaborate effectively in writing.”

Here are some other reasons why good writing is important within the workplace.

It automatically increases your credibility

Think about the last time you read a typo in an email. It probably wasn’t too long ago, was it? Regardless of the industry you’re in, if you can write well—not only just without typos, but clearly and concisely, you will most likely stand out amongst your coworkers as a credible person.

“Grammar signifies more than just a person’s ability to remember high school English. I’ve found that people who make fewer mistakes on a grammar test also make fewer mistakes when they are doing something completely unrelated to writing — like stocking shelves or labeling parts,” shares Kyle Wiens, CEO of iFixit.

It shows you care

We live in a digital world where many people are constantly multi-tasking. While this may inhibit some from taking the time to pay attention to their writing in their day-to-day work life, the truth is that good writing demonstrates the time, thought, and attention that you put into your work. It shows you care enough about what you’re communicating—and even the person you’re communicating with—to write concisely and without errors.

It allows you to promote yourself and your career

Writing clearly shows you care and positions you as someone who is good at communicating inside—and outside—the office. Writing skills can transcend the workplace, and if you’re a good writer on outlets like LinkedIn, your influence has the opportunity to grow and flourish.

It will help boost your confidence

When you’re able to articulate your thoughts in a clear manner and others take note, it will most likely boost your confidence. It also has a chance of inspiring you to write more often as your in it excels.

Looking to make your writing stand out? Here are some tips for you.
