One of the best things you can do to motivate yourself to work at home is to create your own custom home office furniture, and ply your profession in your dream workspace. It doesn't have to be expensive or difficult, and the sense of achievement is priceless. However, you have to be wary of one insidious error many people make when they shift from being an anonymous bee in a busy beehive into a work-at-home professional. This article explores how to properly make the change and avoid that expensive and success-sapping mistake.
If you are among the lucky professionals who are able to leave their giant downtown offices behind to work at home instead, you will probably be doing so on a limited budget and with only the vaguest idea of how to transform the designated space in your house into a full-time functioning office. Along with the physical shift of suddenly not having to leave the house to go to work, there is a mental shift to be done as well so as to get your brain in gear and in "work mode," even when you are at home. You probably already have a space at home with a desk and an executive chair, a set of shelves, a filing cabinet, and everything else you need, but because these things have always been part of your concept of "home," you might find it difficult to maintain your usual work pace, your brain instead turning to thoughts of relaxation and family time. One of the most effective ways to get your mind around this is to invest in custom home office furniture - furniture you acquire precisely for the purpose of working and making a living.
Wooden Swivel Stool
If you have the budget for brand new furniture or custom pieces made to your specifications by a carpenter, good for you, but you can also have a custom-furnished office on a shoestring budget. Keep in mind that your goal is to repurpose that chair from "relaxation chair" to "work chair." Start with the stuff you already own, or see what pieces you can find at the local flea markets or office-warehouse closeouts. All you need to make sure of is that the measurements will work with your space and it provides the functionality you need. Then take a brush and paint it a color you like, have it reupholstered, or sand off the old, worn finish and give it a coat or two of lacquer. More than new-looking, one-off furniture that you customized with your own hands, you will also be getting a sense of purpose, focus, and momentum that all this effort is being done to achieve a goal, and that goal, ultimately, is your financial success. Do this, and every time you enter your new home-office and see the fruits of your labor, your motivation will be strengthened.
So what is the expensive, disastrous, success-sapping mistake many beginning home-office professionals make? It is this: when they think of their preferred interior design and go about acquiring their custom home office furniture, they subconsciously, or even consciously, try to recreate the working environment they left. You do not have to live in a gray cubicle anymore. You can have windows with a view (possibly of your kids playing in the yard), the corner office you've always worked for, or a classic leather swivel chair with an avant-garde glass and aluminum desk and crazy red and yellow shelves if that gets your creative juices flowing. It's your office, you're the boss now, make yourself a working space that reflects the fact.
Motivate yourself with custom home office furniture done your way and on your terms, and soaring productivity and efficiency will follow, as will professional success.
