Attention Is My Most Valuable Asset for Productivity as a Software Developer

I did two things once it became clear that working for home was going to drag on for months:

- bought a really good office chair. Herman Miller Aeron. Incredibly expensive but also no regrets at all. I sit in this thing for 10+ hours a day with zero issues.

- bought a pull-up bar. Great for either an exercise regime, or just for something to do when you're pondering a work related issue.

I got the Steelcase Leap from some kind of office liquidation store for 50% off. There are some great deals and these are very sturdy and well made chairs so second hand is often just as good.

I second buying the chair... if you spend any significant portion of your day with a specific piece of furniture (chair, bed), it's worth spending a little more on it.
