Are Co-Working Office Space Memberships worth it?

I find that it helps just being around other people.. but not as comfortable or productive as working from the home office. Its a great social out though and good for business.

I struggled with it for a long time. Spend half my day screwing around and getting nothing done.. you blink and 6 months has gone by and the only thing you have done is checked some email, blown a few hundred grand, and isolated every business contact you have. I think everyone copes with it different but for me its a balance of my vices and work -- I offset my motivation with gambling. If I want to go blow $500 that night.. I work untli I make $1000 in revenues.. and when I do it then its a treat, or I set INSANE goals.. like if I just finish this one project that will take me 3 hours of hard labor I'll give myelf a grand to go blow at craps.. and that works sometimes. But generally speaking.. if you want to get motiviated.. gallon of super cold pepsi.. put yourself in a closet with the lights out, small book light, pen and paper.. no internet.. don't do a damn thing for the first hour.. and as the rest of the world stops cluttering your mind watch the creativity flow.

One of the most helpful free apps I installed when I was trying to focus to write an eBOok was Work Rave. Workrave

I set it to lock my computer for 2 minutes every 45 minutes. I'd take a break, walk around, get some air or water, do some pushups, whatever. The best thing about it was half of the time I would be in the middle of doing something such as checking facebook instead of working. So it put me back on track.
