You cannot beat flexibility

When it comes to be able to get your work done, when you want to, what would you prefer. Having to get in your car and drive 30 to 40 minutes to your office, have to open it up and get in and do the work you wanted to do an hour ago. Or drive 5 minutes (maybe even walk) to your local coffee shop, take out your laptop catch up the work and enjoy a coffee, then drive 5 minutes home.

There is almost no denying that by far a great number of people would probably prefer the second scenario above. However, probably the same majority of people are currently living out the first scenario, compared to those actually living the second. Maybe for everyone the distance is not the same, maybe some people are just 5 minutes from their office, maybe others are further. But what it comes down to is that these people are fixed on the idea of doing work at the office, even if it means that they have to waste an hour of their time to get to the office to do the work.

Having no fixed office almost erases this problem entirely and gives you a life that you don’t have to worry about the wasted hours in going to an office, that has you relying on that location to do your work. When you have no fixed office you can choose to work and often get that work done in less time then it would take some other people just to get to thier office. So really it is all about choice, and the choice that you make to spend time going somewhere that you may or may not like being and going somewhere that you enjoy the atmosphere and that opens up your creative ability.

In some respect for me this is a challenge of theories, i have always wanted to have a specific office, well maybe not office, but store that i can use not only to work from but to sell direct to customers from as well. But the more that i read and the more that i am discussing the idea of no fixed office here the more that i realise that a store is not something that i need to make my business whole. All that i really need to do is make the most of what i have available to me which is the flexbility to work anywhere, and really to do what i wish to do when i want to, and not be bound to having to go to some fixed location to do my work in. It is really all about choice.
