Working from home can be very challenging. There are countless distractions and it is extremely hard to concentrate. There are doorbells, cravings, frequent toilet breaks, kids running around etc.
Most distractions don’t even occur to us when we are sitting at our desk in a “regular” office.
We may also find ourselves unable to separate work life and our personal life. Working hours become a blur and we end up working in bed in our pyjamas all day.
Create a Dedicated Workspace
The reason we don’t get constantly distracted in the office is because we have a dedicated workspace where our minds are tuned to work. We see our desk, office chair, files, folders, laptop etc. and we automatically work!
The first step is to identify a space in your home which will double up as your office. Try to avoid the bedroom or kitchen.
Ideally, you should have a desk. It should have enough space for all your files and folders. Everything you need should be nearby.
Lighting plays a very important role. See that your space is well lit with a combination of natural and artificial light.
If you have a separate room that you can convert into your home office, that would be excellent.
I have added several Home Office Desks to my Amazon Page. I’m currently using one from IKEA. It was very easy to assemble and extremely high-quality.
I’ve added several categories like – Home Office Essentials, Snacks (Nothing is complete without snacks!), Printers, Mobiles, Pen Drives, Kitchen and many more.
