1. Keep an Open Mind to Perform Your Best
Keeping an open mind will help you be prepared to perform your best, no matter what comes your way. Change is an exciting new opportunity. Embrace some of the chaos that comes your way as part of what keeps work fresh and interesting.
An open mind will help improve other areas of your life, too, and will make new restaurants and recipes look like fun new adventures. Tasks and activities that used to seem daunting will look like new opportunities.

2. Keep Calm and Carry On
Take a page from the old adage, keeping calm in stressful situations makes it easier to handle them. Take a few deep breaths, or a few minutes to yourself, then come back refreshed and ready to tackle the task at hand.
Some great ways to introduce new aspects of calm into your daily are:
- Complete a short meditation using a meditation app before work or when feeling overwhelmed
- Enjoy your coffee outside without your phone
- Take a walk around the neighborhood on your lunch break
- Light a few candles in your home office
3. Make a List and Prioritize
Life is changing so rapidly that it can be hard to keep track of everything. In times like this, making a list can do wonders for your overall flexibility and mental health.
You can make checklists for just about anything, and especially these tasks:
- Staging open houses
- Helping new clients list their homes
- Things to look for in a potential new home
These checklists will ensure everything is in order, even if you feel chaos seeping in. Showing up prepared will do wonders for your business.

4. Find New Ways to Stay Connected
When the going gets tough, it’s incredibly helpful to have a support system to lean on. Your support system may look a little different with social distancing, but it’s important to maintain your relationships with colleagues as well as friends and family so you can perform your best.
Consider scheduling a virtual happy hour with colleagues or a family game night. These activities will help you reconnect and have some fun.
