Most of us don’t think of it too much when working from home. But it makes a difference in both, productivity and overall mental health when considering these items that I believe are crucial when working from home. They will provide comfort, ease of use, productivity, and peace of mind.
1. Desk
Desk setup is by far the most important thing to consider when working from home, you will be spending eight plus hours sitting at it every day, therefore the better the setup the more productive you will be throughout the day.
So I went with FEZIBO Electric Standing Desk, 55 x 24 Inches Height Adjustable Table, it is one of the most rated and it looks great.
2. Double Monitor
I always recommend to have at least two monitors setup, it is very hard to work on a single monitor nowadays, especially when doing programming or creative work, one monitor is for ideas, references, or read off of and the second one is for work.
I am working on a laptop therefore I went with the laptop and display mount that attaches to the desk making it a perfect setup, it works really well making it much more cleaner, allows for more desk space and so much better for your posture.
3. Sitting all Day
The second, but as equally if not more important is the chair you will be spending majority of the day in.
Unlike going to the office where you do not have an option to choose a chair, but for home office, I strongly suggest that you invest in a good chair, it is totally worth it.
Dowinx gaming chair is not that expensive and really comfortable, plus the ivory color option that they have is perfect as it’s not an eye sore in the room 😊.
4. Wireless Keyboard and a Mouse
It is not required, but really nice to have a wireless keyboard and a mouse.
I never liked having many cables on my desk, and the more cables you can get rid off the better, nice a clean desk equals less stress which results in better productivity.
I chose Logitech Mouse and the Keyboard because I think they have really nice designs and they always work, the solar keyboard is something you will never have to worry about, it charges itself, and the mouse is really efficient that the batteries will last a long time before will have to be replaced.
5. Distractions, distractions, distractions…
There is nothing worst than trying to focus on the task you are working on and get distracted by a noise that will break the grove.
So after a little bit or research I found that the Sony WH-1000MX4 is a perfect choice, they are 2 in 1, wireless and wired options are giving these overhead headphones the advantage over some other ones.
Having a headphone jack input is great because it’s always better to avoid bluetooth if possible, and with these you can listen to music all day long and not be subjected to some sort of radio waves exposure.
They are a little pricy, I have to say, but the quality, comfort, and versatility that you get is totally worth it.
