What kind of feelings do you get when you enter your office and sit down at your desk? Do you feel stressed? Worried? Cranky or impatient? Overwhelmed? While these feelings could be caused by your work, they could also be caused by the way you have your office arranged. Often, just simple changes in your office layout or decor can improve the way you feel, and that can lead to improved productivity. Here are a few tips to making your office workspace more enjoyable: Arrange your desk so you have a 'commanding position' in the room (where you can view most of the room, especially the entry door, while seated at your desk) Remove all clutter from your line of sight Arrange your computer monitor so there is not a bright window behind the monitor Create 'ambiance' by adding plants and favorite mementos Use a fan to create 'white noise' to mask outside noises Find and fix the one thing that aggravates you the most in your office Just a few minor changes like these can often make all the difference in how you feel while in your workspace.
