I worked on my business from home for years. It was very productive.

Then a year and a half ago, I got an office two minutes away from my apartment.

I would say I'm less productive, but significantly more relaxed.

I think this is an improvement. (I say think because there's defintely a tradeoff to growing slower. I'm trading relaxation now for less relaxation later)

I'm not sure exactly why this is. Part of it is just being able to walk to the computer and quickly solve a task when it comes to mind. Or, conversely, to leave work and cook food/shower etc with no friction and then get back to work.
