Find your happy workplace

For many startup entrepreneurs, working from home is not only a necessity in the early days but it is also an amazing lifestyle improvement over going into the office every day. However, the downside can be that it is a little isolating. So, the trick is to find your happy workplace outside of your home office environment, one that is stimulating, has connections to other entrepreneurs, and that is convenient. Here are a few suggestions, with the advantages to each one. Firstly, the coffee shop - the favourite hangout of freelancers and solopreneurs alike and a great place to network and connect with like-minded people, plus the added advantage of great Wifi. Secondly, hotel lobbies are great places to meet with clients and do some general networking, plus the working environment tends to be a little quieter than the coffee shop equivalent. Thirdly, restaurants and cafes are good places to surround yourself with other people, to grab some lunch whilst you are working, and to connect with clients. Finally, co-working spaces are the perfect environment in which to meet fellow solopreneurs, to swap notes and experiences, and of course, to grab that all important coffee. So, where’s your happy workplace?
