Hi Josh. I am also interested bout you changes too. Did you do it and did it helped? I am also thinking bout getting a place where I will be not be interupted. It's nice to be able to work from home. However sharing the study room with your wife and kids, sometimes...most of the time is too much of a distraction. Not too mentioned guest coming, ringing the bell, the delivery man etc.

I was just randomly thinking about using an office and I remembered this thread

josh, I know it's been a long time, but have you made the switch or any progress with your search for an office?

@Itchymoku , since starting this thread last year, I have been trading with a prop firm, so I am making the drive to their office every day. Even if I were not working at the firm I think it would still be a good idea to get a separate office space if you have family or distractions at home.
