Maximizing Productivity: Break Strategies at The DECK
If you are a digital nomad worker or a location-independent entrepreneur looking for a place to sit down and focus, The DECK is your perfect fit.
The DECK, a coworking space in Osaka, Japan, provides a space for collaborative experience with other location-independent entrepreneurs or productive days of individual work. With private rooms, shared and individual tables, and a fabrication studio, The DECK creates a space for you to harness your limitless potential.
That being said, during long days of work, one can often experience brain fog. In many work cultures, taking breaks is often frowned upon, but that’s what’s great about a coworking space; there is no judgment or penalty for giving your brain a rest.
The DECK offers a variety of options for rejuvenating work breaks, including:
Taking a walk. The DECK is located in the Chuo Ward of Osaka, right above Sakaisuji Hommachi station (direct access). Location independent-entrepreneurs can take a stroll around the lively block or embark on a short walk to a public park in the city. Your eyes can take a rest from work and enjoy the changing seasons throughout your time at The DECK.
Grab a drink and relax. Sometimes all you need is a cup of coffee, some fresh water, or maybe some green tea, well The DECK provides all of the above and more. There is a free drink bar available to all within The DECK. Grab a ginger ale or pepsi and crack open a book or watch a show for a few minutes. A refreshing drink is always helpful when working for any amount of time.
Change seats. There is an array of different seating around the coworking space area and a change in scenery can improve productivity. Grab your stuff, take a lap around the office and find your next perfect spot. You may see The DECK staff moving from table to table, it’s always helpful to see the room and your work from a different perspective.
Start a project. The FAB Lab offers a sewing machine, laser cutters, 3D printers, and more. Even if it isn’t work related, you can use the FAB Lab to complete fun and personal projects. Consider taking a break to work on a personalized shirt or a 3D printed gift for a friend. Your ideas are limitless and it is an entertaining break from work!
Workout or relax: The DECK is in a prime location for exercising and relaxing. Downstairs from The DECK there is a fully-equipped gym while upstairs you can get a Thai massage. Each opportunity releases serotonin, relieves stress, and increases productivity!
