11 years ago I started working remotely. This was back when it wasn't called telecommuting anymore, but it wasn't yet called remote work. I didn't know what I was doing. After six months of struggling with isolation, losing touch with friends and coworkers, and troubles with getting stuff done, I vented in a blog post that has now been read by 380K+ people: https://blog.davidtate.org/how-t... After this, I published my email (david@davidtate.org) and asked people to share their struggles with remote work. They did, about 2 emails a week for the next 10 years. I tried to help and learned a lot. There are 4 core issues with remote work, as an individual, that you have to overcome: #1 Boundaries how to achieve harmony between work and life wrt your time, space, family, and sanity #2 Communication how to keep in touch and establish trust from afar #3 Productivity how to work alone and stay productive consistently #4 Isolation how to manage your life so that moving out of an office doesn't lead to depression or burnout This isn't a manual on how to run a remote team; this is a personal guide on how to be successful on one. Many have seen the potential, but don't know how to make it work; I hope this helps people that are struggling to figure out this remote work as we try to return to a new normal. Thanks for listening!
