Many people consider summertime the best time of the year, and you may be one of those people! It's the season for barbecues, swimming, outdoor games and activities, and travel, and the swirl of summertime fun in the Knoxville area can make it hard to concentrate when you're at work. 

While we definitely hope that you will be able to enjoy your summer to its fullest, we also know that when you're at work, you need to make your efforts count. Staying productive when faced with distractions can be difficult, but it's essential to the business you're in to keep on top of your game, no matter what. 

Let's talk about how you can stay productive despite summertime distractions!

What Are Some Tips To Help You Stay On Task During The Summer?

You've worked hard to get where you are career-wise, so you know you need to keep doing the very best job you can throughout the year. It can be a challenge during the summer, what with vacations to plan, outings to organize, get-togethers to arrange, and that beautiful Knoxville weather! 

Here are a few ideas to help you keep your head in the game:

• Create a comfortable working environment. Make your workspace a place you like to be; it will help you stay focused on where you are rather than daydreaming about being elsewhere. 

• Use the proper lighting: make the most out of the daylight and get a desk lamp with a 3500-4000K light. 

• Get an ergonomic office chair; it should support your lower back and promote good posture. 

• Declutter your work area using shelves and lockers to store documents and office stuff.

• Bring the outdoors indoors. Put together a biophilic workplace environment for yourself by using natural materials and elements, such as wood and stone. Living plants are also a great way to give you a relaxing space to work. 

• Take regular breaks. Better yet: go for a walk or sit outside during your break to enjoy the gorgeous summertime scenery in Knoxville.
