VP Article: How To Keep A Positive Mindset While Working Remotely

INSTRUCTIONS: BEFORE STARTING THE ACTIVITY, MAKE SURE TO READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM.

Use Loom to record yourself while reading the article out loud. You may split the reading part into as many recordings as necessary. In your Virtual Professionals notebook, list the things that make you feel unmotivated, sleepy, bored, or irritated while working from home. Then, write about what you do and the steps you take to stay positive and productive at work. Finally, if there is anything that still prevents you from doing your best at work, write it down. Explain why it is challenging for you to handle, and it must contain a minimum of 200 words.

Do not use ChatGPT or any AI tools to generate your output. However, you may use ChatGPT to check the grammar.

Important Note: As much as possible, do this activity when you are calm, not rushed, and when your mind is clear and relaxed. Avoid doing it during busy or stressful moments to fully benefit from the experience.
