These days, more and more people are working from home at least part of the time. There are often more distractions at home than in an office, so it is a good idea to create a dedicated work space in your home to minimise distraction and maximise productivity. If that’s something you are doing or thinking about doing, these tips should help you make the best use of your space.
- Get rid of the distractions – Make sure only essential items are on your desk. Be strict and limit it to only your computer and any stationery you (really) need. Avoid trying to work in a multi-use space – that invites distractions.
- Plan your space – What do you need to do your work? That might mean just a laptop or it might mean a more elaborate desktop setup. Make a list and stick to it.
- Think about which way your desk faces – Don’t give yourself the temptation of staring out the window.
- Be strict about working hours – If your office is in your home, it can be tempting to work at odd hours. Instead, try to keep to a set schedule and keep your work and free time well defined.
