Just note that you’re not just working from home; you’re at home in the middle of a worldwide pandemic, attempting to get some work done. (That idea came from a tweet I read that I can’t find right now)
Everyone’s productivity is down when we’re preoccupied with if loved ones or ourselves might get into a dangerous health situation.
I’ve worked from home for nearly a decade, and I also feel my productivity is down. I’m choosing not to beat myself up over it, and trying to check in mentally with myself throughout the day to see if I’m spending my time the best way possible, even more than I usually do.
So if you feel your productivity is unacceptably down now, consider waiting until the pandemic is over - which could be a very long time - and then try again. For now, stay safe and healthy.
