I’ve talked about the importance of having a dedicated working space before in
How To Work From Home, but honestly, having that dedicated working space makes soooooooooooo much difference. Since I moved house last year and was able to have a dedicated room in the house for an office, it’s made a huge difference. It’s my room and nobody comes in unless they are invited in. It also means that I can leave the camera equipment set up, which saves me loads of time when I’m making videos. Also, I can make things in the office how I like them so that I have a better environment to work in. I also use a co-working space too for when I need a more professional office or meeting rooms. It’s also a place I can go to if I just want to escape the house and work in a different environment. If you don’t have the luxury of a spare room or an actual office, then try to create a separate working space. Even if it’s just a desk in a corner. Having that dedicated working space means that you know when you sit down there you are in work mode. Try not to have it in your bedroom as that’s for relaxing and sleeping. And don’t use your kitchen table as a desk. I know it makes a great story when you become super successful, but, your dining table if for eating your dinner off, not working on.
