If you are dealing with limited space in a small room, the phrase ‘don’t work where you eat’ is something that might not apply to you. You might have to turn your writing desk into a kitchen table and into a side table for your couch. For some people, having your small writing desk as other things is a necessity. However, if you can help it, try to have your writing desk be something that you only write at. Our bodies and brains become accustomed to doing certain things in certain places, and that can be true of your desk. If you browse online while trying to sleep, it trains your brain to stay awake while lying in bed. If you play videogames at your work desk, your brain focuses on distraction whenever you are in that spot. And of course, if you sit at your work desk and do anything but write, then you will eventually learn that habit as well. So if you can, try to keep your writing desk one use, and you will see the benefits of that rather quickly!
