Day 256 — Working from home

My co-working space subscription is the single most justifiable monthly expense for me. The change in setting is immensely powerful. I guess it's just part of that external support structure we ADHD brains need.

I've only heard of WeWork, what are some other co-working space subscriptions if this isn't the one you use?

I do use WeWork, and they're the largest. But there seem to be tons of co-working spaces that aren't huge, nationwide brands. Some are even industry-specific. You can Google top co-working spaces, or even just search Google Maps in your area for "co-working space" to pick one close by.

The need for a transition is real. I work from home several times a week and there is a noticeable difference in my level of engagement in that first hour. If I drive to work at a shared space cubicle I'm generally more engaged. There is also the issue of office clutter in my home office. The shared space cubes are always free of distraction.

I don't think the separation needs to be drastic, just another room from where you relax/sleep. Or a basement :)

I used to work from home and found I'd get too distracted by the fact that I was surrounded by literally all of the things I own. I now have a desk in a shared office, and I've invested in some seriously good noise-cancelling headphones. That and using www.brain.fm can see me being ridiculously productive! My work/life balance is massively important, and I think just the act of walking ten minutes to get to my office really helps me frame what's to come as "work". Similarly when I go home I know I've left work behind and I'm in "home" mode. It's helped me massively! Make sure you make the basement comfortable though - natural light is also important!

You mentioned www.brain.fm; I was unaware of it and had to look it up. Have you been using it very long? How effective do you feel it is for you? Have you experienced and tapering off of effectiveness over time? Thanks!

Hey Kevlar :) Yeah I find it to be really effective after I've had it on for five minutes or so. It makes it easier for me to maintain focus than I manage without. The first time I used it I felt a bit like a superhero! Of coure your mileage may vary, but I'd recommend at least the free trial! :)
