Telephone operation, although slightly less popular in Spain, is popular with fans. Companies that let you give their employees that perform their work in non-office environments, employees were able to do it from their homes.
A computer and a decent internet connection are usually among the very few requirements for remote operation. However, they should create certain habits to avoid distraction and to postpone the time when the workplace is in our home.
A healthy mind for the Desktop and Dock forbidden
One of the first things Windows users have done to log on to Mac is often realize that the desktop is not saved with it icons. When an application is installed it is rarely possible for immediate access to the wall attachment page, even though the user has the ability to make decisions to place as many programs, folders and documents as he or she wants.
Having a few folders on the desktop with the important information we usually use can be helpful, but it's easy enough for those folders to expand and Word documents to appear scattered on the screen every day. If you think you'll end up being defeated by Diogenes digital, batteries they can be your best partners.
This function allows editing all elements of the same category on the "cell" desktop (for example, all images are organized under the same icon). When you click on a stack, all the content is displayed in an organized manner so that the user can review it quickly and efficiently.
Regarding Dock, when we buy a computer and configure macOS for the first time, a series of icons will appear automatically in the bottom bar (Dock). However, these app icons and folders can be changed to user to add more users or opt out , and, therefore, they are always close. Setting up the most commonly used programs in Dock will avoid using Launchpad or Spotlight to start a preferred word processor, web browser or email manager.
Finally, to avoid that every time an application is deprecated, a new icon appears in the Dock, it is recommended to activate the option "Minimize windows in app icon". This setting is available in System Preferences and in the Dock section.
Watch out for notifications
Email is a useful tool for sharing information, so it helps a lot that when we receive a message, a notification appears in the top right corner of the screen. However, not all notifications from our Mac are important, and many of them can be very frustrating and stressful.
On the part of "Notifications" in system preferences We can configure them so that for each application they have different behavior, and we have the opportunity to add capabilities that we don't think are useful.
And sometimes when we need to focus more, instead of going to apply for it to be activated we can turn to "Do not disturb". This feature hides strings, alerts, and change notification sounds. It can be programmed to automate from one hour to the next if we do not know that we receive notifications, for example, syncing with our working hours.
Restrict content with "Time of Use"
It's very tempting to open YouTube in the new Safari tab to see which final video was made by our favorite content creator, or to open that newly uploaded game in the App Store thinking we will only play the game and end up spending more time than expected.
With the "Use time" function that we can set limits on what we do with computers, being able to make the WhatsApp Web only available for 10 minutes or that we cannot access a particular website while deciding.
The latter was composed of a content and privacy component, available during System Setup preferences. We may choose to be able to access only approved websites, preventing unwanted connections.
Full screen and split screen
If we want all our attention focused on the work, the best way to accomplish this is to put a program we work on full-screen. Pressure green button the window will expand until it occupies all space, removing other items such as a menu bar or booth.
However, if it's comfortable for us two visual programs at the same timeHolding the green button will open a menu that will tell us how we want to position the window, allowing us to place one on the free side.
In the App Store there is an app called Magnet that allows you to edit windows more freely by dragging them to one of the sides of the screen, very similar to what Microsoft has allowed for Windows 10. It's priced at 2.99 euros.
Respecting schedules, but with breaks
It is important to establish a work schedule, but you must not forget that it is also necessary to take a short break from time to time. This also applies to office tasks or tasks that require sitting in front of a screen. What is recommended is this rest your eyes for five minutes every hour you have worked.
However, there are other and more effective alternatives, such as Pomodoro. Built in 1980 by Francesco Cirillo, it contains split time into invisible moments, called pomodoros, 25 minutes of practice, followed by five minutes of rest with longer guides on four pomodoros.
There is apps in the App Store for Mac default process for us, as & # 39; Focus & # 39 ;, & # 39; Focus To-Do & # 39; or & # 39; Tomatoes & # 39 ;. Many people combine this approach with a list of tasks, giving each "pomodoro" a specific task.
