I really need to organise my work space more effectively and you have given me some good ideas. Also, have just spotted your book on Amazon for just over £5. What a bargain! May have to place an order. Thanks for the video. I really need to organise my work space more effectively and you have given me some good ideas.

You're definitely set up to keep things in balance, and optimized for more great Work! Has David Allen seen your setup? I live by quotes as well, so it was nice to see you had plenty of inspirational drivers around you. I especially loved your WOMBAT ;-) Keep practicing what you preach - well done! Cheers!

It's always important to get the balance right between making an office a place where you want to be, but not so comfy you'd never get any work done!

The "little 'ole me," tends to imagine that my role models and virtual mentors live and work in grand, luxurious spaces--completely out of my reach. Your office exudes warmth, balance, order, inspiration and utility, packaged beautifully, elegantly and provocatively. I can "Have an office like Michael Bungay Stainer," and will! Your contributions enrich my life. Michael, thank you for this tour!

The deck of oblique strategies is not available annymore, I think. Hallo Michael, could you put all the links of the stuff you use down below the video?

Right now I don´t have an real office for my great work. I have the desk in my office and a desk at home, but its in a small room where my girlfriend also works. That´s because I moved to the living room table. I would love to have something set up like your room. What do you recommand for people that have their work and also have their personal projects. How would you set up your workplace? Great work! Right now I don´t have an real office for my great work.

I'm an artist and songwriter so inspiration strikes anywhere and everywhere but it will be great to have some things to assist in a space I want to work creatively in to help when I do get blocked.

I just went to my local photography store and bought the cheapest two light set. Cost me about $150 I think. Manisha – glad it helped.

In addition to the two desk concept (B.R.I.L.L.I.A.N.T.)... As did Tess, I specially loved the tips on lights & portable "recording studio." So smart! Any recommendations on where to purchase those items? Thanks again for sharing the details of your creative command central! Wow – this was SuperDuper helpful.

I really loved your filing system set up and wondered if you might share the labels on your other file boxes so we can get a sense of what lives where and how the files move around. I know you're a fan GTD of the Productive Flourishing system so interested to know how/if that system has helped shaped your filing system. Kudos and congrats on a brilliant year to date. Look forward to seeing you soon! Karen Great post Michael, delighted to see that you’re office away from home is still working out.
