Working from home has certain perks. You’re comfortable, you get to save money, and you’re spared from the hassles of commuting to work. But most of the conveniences that we enjoy at home aren’t exactly enough nor helpful for work productivity, hence the procrastination.
Having a computer/laptop and an internet connection may not be enough. Check out this list and find items that you might want to add to your cart:
Proper Desk & Chair
To start, you need a work desk and chair.
Any flat surface may do the trick for a short while, such as the dining table or a coffee table, but it’s not exactly good for you.
Dining tables have the height you need for your laptop to be leveled with your sightline, but your seat might be too low and you end up sacrificing the muscles on your wrist and forearms. You would likely develop a minor injury or worse, a major damage like carpal tunnel syndrome. Coffee tables may force you to stoop low to level the laptop screen with your sightline.
Instead, you may invest in an adjustable laptop stand that you can use whether you’re in bed, on the coffee table, or elsewhere:

Your back will also thank you for splurging a little bit for a good computer chair:

Good Lighting For Video Calls
Vanity is subjective, but good lighting isn’t. Some of us are able to work right beside the window to let that wonderful natural source in, while others are on full work-mode in a different part of the house. We all have a favorite spot to do our work, but when it comes to Zoom call meetings, good lighting is an unspoken must-have.
If you’re looking from a more stationary option that will complete your work desk and give you that much need light for video conferencing, you may check this out:
Enjoy Your Soundtrip
A good soundtrip can jazz up your mood and keep you pumped up while you get your work done. It’s also the saving grace that can cancel out the distracting noise coming from outside and inside your home.

And if you’re into neither and prefer to create an ambiance while enjoying your music then consider this instead:
Tech Accessories You Need and Want
