Fighting Post-Vacation Blues: How to Finish the Year Strong
Vacations can be bittersweet. Leading up to it, the excitement is inevitable. Once there, it’s like you’re seeing the world through rose-colored glasses: everything is amazing! But once it’s over, and you are back to reality, then post-vacation blues come knocking. Whether you work in an office, a coworking space or at home, nothing seems to get you motivated to begin work again. Yet, working is a part of life, so how can you beat those feelings? By taking matters into your own hands, knowing that you will have to fight urges with the right tools. So here are some steps you can take: Organize: By having a roadmap to follow, you will likely stay on track. Do ensure, however, that you do not get discouraged by looking at the seemingly monumental goal as a whole. Instead, cut it up into smaller goals to be achieved little by little. For example, daily to-do’s with 3-5 tasks can help you focus only on what you need to get done each day. You can also make a Have Done list each day. It might feel redundant, and like you are just rewriting the previously mentioned list. However, we often get lots of other minimally important tasks done and do not give ourselves credit for it. This will be a reminder that even on the days when you feel the least productive and motivated, you have still gotten a lot done. Rewards: Remember how you felt right before you took your vacation? The anticipation and exhilarating feelings building up? You should try to recreate at least a similar feeling. You will definitely be motivated through focusing on the light at the end of the tunnel. So what drives you? The holiday’s, time with family, another vacation, or simply just some free time? Think, define and focus on that driving force. As soon as you are through with your responsibilities at the end of the year, it will be there waiting for you. Distractions: It is easy to fall into the traps of a good distraction, especially if everyone else around you is also doing. This is why you have to be proactive in recognizing and avoiding them. Sometimes it is the weekly happy hour, which forces everyone to leave work an hour early on Friday’s. Sometimes it is the extra long coffee break that you and your coworkers take each day. Sometimes it is the always tempting social media sites. Whatever it may be, if it is distracting you during work hours, it has to go. Alternatively, allow yourself to enjoy those once the workday officially ends. Re-evaluate: Sometimes it is not just about the actions, but what you are trying to accomplish in the first place. It is important to revisit previously established goals with a critical. Things change and so may your priorities too. Therefore, it is important to ensure that your last bit of energy is being put towards the goals you should be working towards. Ask yourself what your true priorities are. Make a game plan and use these tools to prepare for downfalls. Keep looking forward and happy work!

Disconnect from Work While Vacationing
Some people work to live, while others live to work. However, optimally there should be a balance between work and personal life. As challenging as it is for professionals to take breaks from work, it is very important for overall health and well-being to learn effective ways to disconnect. For instance, during vacations, workaholics are known for working when they should be resting. With that in mind, here are 5 easy and effective ways anyone can use to truly disconnect: Prioritize and plan out your responsibilities Planning out your work tasks and responsibilities helps you to stay on track. By completing tasks on time and efficiently not only brings peace of mind, but it also keeps you from working overtime. Moreover, you can also plan breaks within your calendar so that instead of feeling guilty for it, it simply becomes part of your to do’s. Be present While at work, your focus should be on work-related tasks, so that you can be as productive and efficient as possible. Then once out of the office, your energy should be focused on your personal life and loved ones. By taking mental breaks from both, it becomes easier to deal with challenges and preventing burnout. Don’t overcommit It is impossible to balance work and life if you have more work than you can handle. Know your limits and learn to be sincere with yourself and others when taking on new responsibilities. For the sake of your mental and physical health, remember that it is essential to take time to enjoy life. Avoid working from home It is key to separate where you work from where you live. Otherwise, it becomes significantly more challenging to keep both sides balanced. Workaholics, specifically, should avoid this at all costs! Otherwise, going home will begin to feel like a chore and will no longer be a familiar, relaxing place. On the same coin, productivity can take an even stronger hit when struggling with personal matters. Still, renting out a space can become very pricey. Instead, you can save up by joining a coworking space. Fortunately, there are many coworking spaces in Barcelona, so it all comes down to choosing one. What kind of space are you looking for? Things to look out for include its proximity to metro stops and restaurants, facility equipped with enough space, communal and meeting rooms and a reception for guests or packets, and overall a philosophy that aligns with yours. Cowork Rambla Catalunya, for example checks all of those boxes off and promotes collaboration amongst its community. Choosing a workplace that fits you and has the right environment is essential for success. Technology-free hobbies Taking a break from technology is an easy way to separate yourself from your work. There will be no constant reminders of to do’s, or anyone trying to reach you for a work-related matter. Hobbies like yoga, bicycling, hiking, or walking your dog, for example, can all be done without technology. Such activities also require complete focus, and most importantly, the use of your hands making it hard to use your phone. Lastly, seeking hobbies that do not involve technology usually leads to healthy hobbies that may improve your overall health as a result. Life should be more than work, but it is up to us to make time for living. So this summer season as you prepare to take some time off for vacations, remember to put these tips into practice.

8 Essential Ideas About Coworking
Ideas about Coworking. We have compiled 8 ideas about coworking as a result of a workshop held by Cowork Rambla Catalunya, a community of freelancers, businessmen and businesswomen, SMIs, and entrepreneurs with a passion to learn and innovate, sharing space in a collaborative and elegant environment. In the workshop, a brainstorming session was held on coworking. A petition of the participants had compiled all the ideas that had emerged during those 15 minutes of brainstorming. The Dynamic of the Workshop The participants of the event were divided into 3 groups of 15-20 people of which each contained a diversified variety of professionals of different types: architects, engineers, economists, computer specialist, marketing, leisure, etc. Each team stood in a different space within the Cowork: Còrsega Space: Team Gray Còrsega Space: Team Gray Universitat Space: Team Yellow Three issues emerged from which good ideas emerged. Thank you for all your contributions and shared knowledge…some of us are already doing it! Also, as Monica Deza says, “an idea that is not communicated does not exist.”. The ideas that have been compiled are described below: 1. The Networking and Events Es difícil de creer que solo una idea sea común en los todos los grupos: la importancia del networking a través de afterworks, masterminds o resolución de los problemas para compartir conocimiento de las nuevas tendencias y retos del trabajo. 2. Presentation The presentations among the members of the network, in a talk, between co-workers are key for people to feel at ease: send a presentation email, introduce the person personally, and, in short, know who they are talking to. Also, for those who wish it would be interesting to make an Elevator Pitch of new projects to coworkers and the community to share ideas, learn, and to help one another. 3. The spaces For this networking to happen, the spaces and multipurpose rooms are important to relax. A more informal environment complementary to the kitchen with Wi-Fi and interactive whiteboards. 4. The database Two groups recorded the importance of having a good database. But this is not all…that person who has expert experience in this sector is such a thing that I can find? How can I communicate with them? 5. Let’s have fun Two of the groups expressed ideas that apart from working is, also, a place to have fun. Eat, play videogames, social events. There was, also, an interesting idea: to make team building trips in a farmhouse or to the outskirts in order to interact in places outside of work 6. Discounts/ Benefits for the Community/ Entrepreneurs Team Gray expressed that it would be interesting to provide the community with hotel discounts or discounts to service companies or the gym. 7. Network communication and Coworkers To have a space both online and offline, where the coworkers can post ideas, share interesting articles, projects, events, etc. 8. Community Objectives and Requirements It is very important to have community objectives among the community and it is believed necessary to have requirements to be a part of and to select who are the members that belong to it.
