1. Making Your Home Office More Productive
It's important that your home office becomes an environment where you
can get things done daily. It's convenient to be within walking distance
of your own bathroom and fridge but it's also crucial that your frame of
mind reflect that of a professional. Through the processes of
discovering how to work at home, you'll new ways to be even more
productive.

2. Consider a Standing Desk
With the news that sitting all day decreases life expectancy by two to
three years, it may be time to find a different way to work. It may be a
good idea to consider a standing desk. When you're sitting down,
you're naturally ready to receive. However, if you're standing, you're in
a position to do something; it's a more active pose. A standing desk
also takes up less space so you can do more with your home office.

3. Declutter Your Space
While they say a messy desk is the sign of an active mind, too much
mess can be depressing. Keeping your desk clear helps you to stay
more organized so you're not scrambling to find some vital document at
critical times. One of the best ways to accomplish this is to use freestanding shelves or a hutch. You can even use clear storage boxes,
which can act like filing cabinets.

4. Finding the Right Space
When you first decided to work at home, you thought you could park
your chair and desk in any room and get to work. You may have even
started using your dining room table. Your office is the place where
you'll spend most of your day and it should be created with that in mind.
You'll need to find a room that's the right temperature where you can
not only find privacy for business calls but you can also shut the door
and leave work when you're done. Investing in functional and
comfortable business office furniture will help you feel more like a
professional in a place of business that isn't just a spare room in your
house.
