At first I was very productive working from my home office - but over time I found distractions and procrastination managed to creep in. I started working from a local coffee shop with free wi-fi or the library and it's amazing how much more focused I am when in these locations - despite thinking that these environments would be full of distractions. I am hoping that wi-fi becomes more prevalent so I can work from other locations like parks, the beach, etc while still having internet access. I do sometime works from these locations but shift my work to non-online tasks such as catching up on some reading or brainstorming. I know I could get a broadband card from Verizon to do this - but I currently don't do it enough to justify the added monthly expense. Luckily more wi-fi hotspots pop up every day so in turn my "anywhere office" expands all the time! I couldn’t agree more!
