wonder polling shows that
It’s no wonder polling shows that nearly half of U.S. workers want to keep working from home even after restrictions lift: There’s so much more flexibility. Without a commute, hours are less set. Without an office, everyone is less subject to the group norms that have night owls trying to look alert at 8 a.m., and that makes people self-conscious about leaving the building for any reason.
Still, many people feel reticent about using this freedom. Anecdotes abound of people sitting hunched at their computers without ceasing, not so much as leaving the house for days at a time. In one survey of people working from home, two-thirds said they were more likely to work nights and weekends than they were prior to working remotely.

But fair is fair. It’s likely your workplace is benefiting from you working remotely. Why shouldn’t you get something out of it, too? Here’s how you can start using during-the-day flexibility to improve your life satisfaction:
Track your time
Work hours don’t perfectly correlate with productivity, but if you know that you’re logging an acceptable amount of time, you’ll likely feel more confident about experimenting. So track your work hours for a week or two: Note when things are busy and when they’re quieter. Note which days you tend to work longer hours and if any are generally shorter. Add up the totals. If you work full time and you’re working anywhere near 40 hours per week, then maybe you can relax about exactly when these hours happen.
Start small
If you’re not used to taking any time off during the workday, begin with lunch. Choose one day to leave your desk for a full hour. You can use this time to eat, but also add something else: a short walk, a quick outing to somewhere like the library. When you come back to your desk after an hour, note what happened. Did everything fall apart? Did your colleagues decide that you quit? If not, you probably have more flexibility than you’ve been taking advantage of.
Make a list of adventures
Once you’ve convinced yourself of your freedom, it’s time to figure out what you’d like to do with it. What little adventures might work best between 9 and 5? What life maintenance activities would be easier to do during business hours? You could exercise outside while it’s light or visit the gym when it’s less crowded (important with Covid-19). Some houses of worship are open for during-the-day prayers. A local historic site or museum might welcome visitors between, say, 9 a.m. and 2 p.m.
You might also think about your during-the-day energy levels. Would you like to spend an afternoon hour reading outside or maybe taking a nap? Maybe you’d like to spend time with your kids right when the school day ends. When you know how you want to use your time, you’ll be more motivated to make it happen.
