Everyone that has No Fixed Office has a reason why they have chosen to go in the direction of having no fixed office. What i would really like to know is what is your reason, for choosing the path of No Fixed Office.
While i have more then likely shared this before i will go through some of my reasons again, to give you some thoughts on where to start.
- The first and possibly most important point for me is the freedom that i can access by not having a fixed office. While my business could potentially benefit from a well placed office to pick up walkin clients, the fact that i would be tied to a single location as opposed to being able to work anywhere that i want.
- The second point that makes having no fixed office even easier is the much lower costs involved. This i have discussed a few times. The costs of having an office, while often covered, make it much more difficult to succeed in the type of business that i have. The difficulty in generating thousands of dollars in revenue just to generate a profit to cover lease costs, make success much more difficult.
- Creativity seems to flow more freely when i am not fixed to a single location. This of course is often a personal thing. Some people work better in a single set place that they have set up to their style. While others work much better in a external environment that can change and is more open. This is really my preference, being able to choose a large open space or really any space i like.
So i am interested to hear from those of you that have no fixed office, or even those of you that would like to make the move to no fixed office. What your motives and reasons are for wanting to change.

My reason for not having a fixed office is because I want to be free to pick up and move at will with no reason and no forward planning. I have already traveled across the country and plan to travel to other countries in the very near future. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to remind myself of my “why”.
