Remember to consider holistic behaviors in your answer. For example, behaviors that foster an optimal physical working environment can be as important as those that set the stage for mental success.

"I enjoy working remotely. I find it offers freedoms that I am not able to create in an office setting. However, it takes effort and focus to be successful, and I have developed several practices that help me to thrive remotely.

First, I create an optimal physical environment. I have a dedicated home office and a quiet space for working and meetings. I also have other options to move around to in my home or my community when I need a change of pace. My main goal is to create balance. That includes sometimes getting up for a stretch, a walk, or just ten minutes in the sun here and there.

Secondly, I make sure that I have ways to stay connected to others. This includes fostering solid social relationships outside of the workplace, but it also includes learning about my coworkers and caring about their personal health and wellness. I enjoy team-building events and I facilitated them remotely on a regular basis in my last role.

I also believe it is important to keep a regular schedule. I find it helps me maintain a steady pace and it helps my team know what to expect of me. I try to log in around the same time each day and connect with my teammates to communicate any needs we have individually or collectively. Setting expectations early and often ensures that we minimize delay and work as efficiently as possible."
