Hi guys! I’ve been in front of my computer for the last few days. I want to give a new touch to my blog design and finish the translation of my blog by the end of the year. Starting from 01.01.2017, my Blog will be online in two different languages. We will also travel to Thailand in January, so I have to prepare some blog posts. I don’t want my blog become boring! That’s why I’m sitting here for hours.

If you ask yourself: “How can she stay productive?“, “How does she come up with new great blogpost ideas?“,“What’s her source of inspiration?“ then you should keep on reading because I want to tell you about staying productiv. I also added my little interior wish list.

You will stay concentrated and productive for hours like this.
Organization is half the work

It’s really important for me to work in a clean, bright, and comfortable workspace. There’s nothing more annoying then a messy workspace. It makes me super anxious. My most important tip is to create a comfortable and pretty workspace, which is only for work with nothing else distracting you. The saying “Organisation is half the work“ is really true! I only put important things on my workspace, inclduing my laptop, a notebook, a glass of water, and a carafe with more water. I don’t need more to do my work. And since there is nothing else on my desk, I can focus on the important things. Try it! Clean your desk and you will see how it helps.

The Annoying Paperwork
Value Good Organization

Speaking about paperwork, it can become very chaotic! That’s why I really think that it’s really important, that you organise all your important documents and paperwork. Every few days I take time to put away my paperwork. I started keeping some folders to put my documents in. There are folders for incoming invoices, outgoing invoices, one for important IT information, one about being self-employed, finances, and taxes. If I search for something, I can usually find it very fast. A good shelf is also important. It won’t help to keep a lot of folders without having a place to put them. I linked some examples below.

Natural Light and Enough Oxygen
Plus – don’t Forget to drink a lot of water

It can be super clean and organized, but it’s also important to open the window once in a while to get some fresh air. You also need to hydrate all the time. It’s the best if you only drink water. Soft drinks will only make you thirstier. Maybe you can add something refreshing like frozen raspberries, a slice of cucumber, a fresh lemon, mint, or a piece of ginger. It will also help you to concentrate and to stay productive.

There is nothing worse for me to sit in a big office without a window. I’d feel so caged and I think that my head would ache. At work I also sit there with the window tilted. It’s annoying in the winter when you have to stand up all the time to open and close the window, but doing so will make a difference. Just test this and if you have other tips, please share in the comments!
