Working in the hustle and bustle of the business world can be exhausting. Small business owners and independent contractors have to juggle multiple tasks and responsibilities, often leading to stress and anxiety. From managing finances and marketing to customer service and operations, small business owners have an ever-growing “to do” list.
April is Stress Awareness Month, and the perfect time to take a look at how you can best reduce workplace related stress. For many business owners, contractors, and remote workers, renting private offices can be a great way to reduce stress, all while helping you get work done more efficiently.
Let’s explore some of the benefits of renting private offices and how Ashland Hughes Properties can help you reduce stress.
Increased productivity - One of the best benefits of renting private offices is that it increases productivity. Having your own space dedicated to work helps you stay focused on your tasks without being distracted by noise or other people's conversations. Having your own workspace allows you to not need to constantly move from place to place to get work done, relieving day-to-day stress and anxiety.
Feeling safe leaving your belongings - With a private office, you have the freedom and control to close or lock your door. You also have enhanced security surveillance and monitoring, allowing you to leave your belongings when you have to step away for meetings or lunch.
The safety and security of a private office helps you feel safe leaving your belongings when you need to step outside for some fresh air. In fact, studies show that spending time outdoors helps to reduce stress while improving focus and creativity at the same time. A change of scenery can also help clear your mind, allowing you to come back to your desk feeling refreshed and ready to tackle the next task with renewed enthusiasm.
