Not to get too off topic here, but we came across this blog post by Leo Babauta at Zen Habits and thought it was well worth a re-post here on Telesales Magic! Check it out and get ‘productive’.
A gorgeous workspace with a view invites longing glances at a sun-drenched lawn, a lingering visual tour across the spines of our book collection, and excessive fiddling with the trinkets and toys co-habiting our desk.
We put time and effort into making our workspace a nice place to be without realizing that most of what we add will serve only one purpose: to make procrastination easier.
Simplifying your workspace can help boost productivity by removing distractions.
1. Keep the light, lose the view. Natural light is essential to any healthy workspace, but an interesting view will have you staring blankly into the garden or out onto the street when work gets tough. During work-time, your computer screen should be the most interesting place you can look. During your breaks, however, a trip outside or a peek out of an open window can help reinvigorate you.
