Use your personality and brain style to improve your mood and productivity while sheltering in place. The introverts and low-external-stimulation people are thriving while working at home or with fewer people in the office. The extroverts and high-stimulation people are not. And even introverts can get lonely, so…
When possible, call people rather than email them. Videochat (Facetime, Zoom, etc.) is even better if the people you’re contacting are extroverts. Hearing voices and seeing faces is more stimulating and gives them a burst of energy to move through the day. For everyone, the human voice is reassuring. And if you’re usually all business, take a few moments to chat. Think physical distancing, social connecting!
