I've never really got the 'this is the sea/my pool view where I work' thing. I'd much rather work indoors, in a quiet, cool office with zero distractions and zero sun glare.

Same here, when I moved to this place I thought I was gonna be working outside like a baller. Tried it once, didn't get any work done,

I am sitting at the race track, computer in front of me, daily racing forms spread out across the table, sugar free rock star on empty, and television tuned into the Breeder's Cup. This is my office for today. Separate your TIME from your INCOME.

I was reading Biophase's thread, Stuck? Change Your Environment!, and it occurred to me that I needed to move from my boring kitchen table, and set up shop in one of our empty rooms that I would actually enjoy walking into every morning.
I live off a golf course in a small town called Mansfield, Texas. So I didn't have to make a dramatic move since I am happy here, but I did need a way to enhance my mood to help with productivity.

So I bought a bright orange rug, painted a wall green and set up shop. The environment that you work in really can play a role in your productivity. Just like Biophase explained in his thread, "It just shows you what a change in environment can do for you".


No matter where you work, post what kind of environment does the trick for you with pictures if you are willing. Are you a basement dweller or do you need a fresh breeze every morning like Biophase?

Go ahead show us where the magic happens. Your desk is the one place where some of the most important events of your life happen.

Here's mine.
Keeping up with my minimalist lifestyle I like to keep my desk, well, to a minimum.

I use to take my desk for granted but over time I have learned that a good set up for a desk has a big impact on your productivity. Here are some tips that might help you while you're at your desk.

1. Place your monitor on a desk mount. This will free up space underneath the monitor that you can use for other items.

2. Keep your monitor at eye level. If your monitor is below eye level you will find yourself slouching. By keeping it at eye level it reinforces good posture.

3. Face the door in the room. There's something about having your back towards a door that affects you sub consciously. By having a good clear view of the door you will feel more at ease.

4. Buy a good chair to seat on. The best office chairs are not cheap but they do make a world of difference. They are more comfortable and you can seat down for extended periods of time without having to readjust yourself.

5. Keep the monitor screen facing away from windows. The glare from the sun can be a distraction.

6. Take your computer out of your room. A mistake most people make is not separating their work space with their rest space. Your brain associates the place you work in with work. If you keep your desk in your room it will make it harder for you to fall asleep because your brain is still on work mode.

7. Use a blue light filter when working at night. Blue light can keep you awake at night and makes it harder to stay asleep. If you are using windows just type in "night light" on the search bar. If you can't find the blue light filter on your computer you can download it from here f.lux.

8. Every 30 minutes get up and walk around to stretch your muscles.

9. Every 30 minutes focus on a far away point on the wall to relieve eye strain.

This was my view when I first moved to Norway, though I've since "upgraded" to a worse view with a 5 minute commute.
