When you're working from home, it's easy to get distracted because you don't have your boss walking by your desk or coworkers answering phones as you do in an office setting. So, having a good calendar app that you can use to keep yourself on track is a good idea. You can put your meetings in there, you can add the deadlines, and a lot more. Now if there was only an app to keep the kids and dogs from interrupting you when you're working, right?

Along with having a calendar app on your phone, the next thing you want is to have a to-do list app on your phone that can help you manage everything on your agenda that needs to be done. This is particularly helpful if you have your own business. The great thing about these kinds of apps is that they often have reminders, too. So, you can set a reminder to pick up your son at school or to start dinner at a certain time. Because, as we all know, it can be easy to get into work and suddenly you have a couple of kids and a spouse who are grumbling because they are hungry, which leads me to the final tip.

One thing we all know is that sometimes there's just no time to make dinner. Of course, things like slow cookers and pressure cookers make it easier. But when you've had a long day, the last thing you want to do is to deal with cooking. So, reward yourself for the good work you have done and allow yourself to keep working by downloading an app that can let you order food and have it delivered. Pizza, tacos, burgers, sushi - you name it. Whatever you're craving it will come right to your door with just the tap of a button.
