Anybody work 100% in-office?
My company is big on in-office *and* I work in a cube in the middle of a busy office floor. During our standard office hours, everyone is buzzing.
Pro: The high-energy vibe is great for keeping my head in the game and my creativity well full.
Con: Sometimes, I just can’t focus on deep work.
My fix: Come in early. I wake up 45 minutes earlier to get to the office an hour before everyone else and...it’s like a breath of fresh air. It’s quiet and calm, and I find that I get so much more done in that hour than any other time during the day.
