When you get rid of office, productivity grows extremely, nobody can disturb you personally. However someone from newly made remote workers, to the surprise, will find out that it is much more difficult to enter a work stream in full isolation, than at office. If this is so, is an easy way: take the laptop and go to the nearest cafe with Wi-Fi. There you will be able to work alone - colleagues will not be able to distract you - and at the same time to enjoy "white noise", a crowd rumble.

If the person spends 8-9 hours at office, it does not mean at all that all this time it productively worked. The populous office is similar to the food processor - stay cuts day for a set of small pieces here. Intelligent, creative, complex and important work demands the long periods of concentration when nothing distracts and it is possible to plunge into that, what are you doing.

Chose 5 councils from the book "by Remote. The office is not obligatory" which will be useful to those who only try home-office, and to skilled "udalenshchik".

On it there are good reasons. For example, economy of money and time for the road, it is not necessary to ask for leave every time at the chief that for half an hour to run on affairs, it is not even obligatory to wake up strictly at the same time. Many are afraid that the lack of control will kill all efficiency. But, as a rule, it does not occur.

Much more realistic, human strategy - to use different devices: just allocate one computer for work, and the second - for rest. Or at least block social networks and the entertaining websites special programs not to distract.

Company 37signals is known around the world. They created Basecamp and Ruby on Rails. The head office of the company is in Chicago, but more than a half of team lives in other cities, states and even the countries - Idaho, Canada, Spain and in five places. From time to time they meet to estimate whether there is a progress in work, to discuss what goes correctly/incorrectly, to make plans and once again to communicate with each other already at the personal level.

- to work with the second exclusively well. Fortunately for remote workers, it measured in their case as "work", is of great importance. Give excellent result, and you will be known.

"The world without office" is not the future, this present. Yes, to change old habits not easy. And to change them - a touchy business. But Earth was flat exactly till that day when it was round. Here and all secret.

It is difficult to divide work and rest, especially if you have one computer and for this purpose, and for another. Of course, it is possible to close working programs, e-mail and a chat with colleagues during the rest periods, only you understand that you will not do it. Still the mere mortal with such internal discipline was not born.

Now everything "settled down", and many large companies pass to home-office. Just recently Beeline announced readiness to transfer 50-70% of employees for "udalenka" and started the project of BEFREE. In the MYTH work remotely too: we wrote about it more than once - for example, here the story about how there passes day of the copywriter to Bali or the producer of book projects. Why many look towards home-office?

The person who is going to work far off can have fear that it will be ignored: "If I am not visible whether will listen to me?", "If we do not face in corridors whether people will know who I am such?". There are two elegant solutions of this problem. The first - to publish noise. And in other words to communicate with colleagues by mail, to Skype, in messengers.
