Work in clean and quiet environments will make it easier to work?

If you're working in clean and quiet environments, do you think you will find it easier to work?

Distractions will often come and go, especially as a "work-from-home" person. Kids or other things will and most likely will distract you. - However, if you clean your desk and shut the door or whatever, do you think you'll get more things done compared to working with all the garbage piling up on your desk?

I can't personally really see why a little bit of garbage would affect your work. But I can definitely see how working in a rather quiet environment would have an affect on your work. - But just the thing about a bunch of papers, a coffee mug or whatever on your desk? - I can't see why that would hurt your work.

What do you think?

I tend to be very aware of my surroundings. I am always fussing around wanting to see everything in order and properly stored away. Before I start working I make sure that I have completed some basic daily tasks of cleaning up a bit as otherwise I do not manage to concentrate well. With regards to quietness, I work best when I am all alone. However I cannot always have that luxury as I work from home. I have learnt to work even surrounded by noise, but I end up taking longer to complete a task than I would if I were to be alone and quiet.

Yes I know what you mean about working in noise, I have also managed to learn how to work with blocking out everything that is going on around me. It takes some time to get to that point and I have had a lot of very frustrating work days...but now I just tune out and work.

I have had a few people how I manage it but when you have to work and the household is noisy, you just have to do it!

Oh yes, for instance, in the case of the summer holidays... that's the worst time of the year! So I try to establish a time when I get at least an hour of quiet time. Sometimes I have them watch TV in the sitting room, or read, or play a game in their bedroom, because otherwise I just end up having a whole day in a noisy environment which is very demotivating :/

Yes, I work better when working in a clean and quiet environment so when before I start work, I will clean up my room and once I start work, I will close the door and have silence in my room. I think this just gives me maximum concentration which gives me maximum efficiency. If my room is dirty, it sometimes makes me a bit hard to concentrate.

LOL Andre your post has made me laugh. You think a little bit of garbage won't make much of a difference to work productivity? I can promise you that it does. I have a lady that cleans two mornings a week but otherwise I do my own household chores every day. The problem is that no matter how much time and effort I spend on cleaning, with these two kids my house always looks like a bomb has just exploded.

When I get home from dropping my kids at play school in the morning I get home and look at the mess and I have to choose to work or to clean... I almost always choose to work because I only have 3-4 hours until I have to pick up my kids. It really bothers me though!

It is difficult to write when there are distractions. When I am using our home desktop, no one makes a noise otherwise they will be scolded. But when our dogs bark, oh, I have to stop working because I lose my concentration. Now that we have a laptop, I can work inside the bedroom to have full privacy. That makes my work easier.
