?Have a proper printer & scanner so that you are self-sufficient in your requirements.
?Keep your office supplies e.g., pens, pencils, eraser, sharpener, paper pins & clips, stapler, staple opener, scissors, punch machine etc. handy so that you don't have to get up & look for them at different places at your home. There should also be a dustbin near your desk.
?Don't let others in the house mess around with your work place when you are not there.
?Your office corner should have a proper lighting. It should be a place near a window or a place where you can get enough daylight. It should also have proper artificial lighting so that you don't have to go anywhere else if working late in the evening.
?Designate fixed hours of the day to your work & treat it as a full-time or a part-time job, whichever applies.
?Take your work seriously & let others also feel the same way for your work. Avoid talking to friends on phone during your work time so that they know you are not free during those hours.
?Keep your landline as well as your mobile handy so that anybody who wants to contact you regarding work gets to talk to you & you don't miss on it.
?Keep a record of all your previous work in files so that you can always get back to them quickly whenever required without wasting any time or disrupting something that you are currently working on.
?Beautify your workplace so that you stay lively while working & don't get bored.
