When we say, “Big Desk Energy”, we’re not just referring to any large desk. BDE is a vibe. It’s a movement. You may be wondering: What type of individuals live and breathe #BigDeskEnergy? Do you have #BDE? 

Big Desk Energy describes the aura of a desk job worker who’s got it all together. They’re someone who’s on their A-game when it comes to their workstation and home office accessoriesBig desk energy is, as they say; confidence sans cockiness. BDE is the pinnacle of asserting your dominance in the workspace. 

Since the COVID-19 outbreak was announced in spring, StatsCanada has shared that the number of employees working from home has increased by at least 40% in Canada, from February to March 2020! This doesn’t even include those self-employed, working remotely prior to the world pandemic announcement. 

Canadians working from home - you’ll want to get your hands on 2020’s most unique desk accessories or to make use of the stylish desk accessories below. If you want to amplify the energy in your home office and work more productively at your desk during this pandemic, keep on reading!

Do You Have Big Desk Energy?

The difference between those with #BigDeskEnergy vs. those with #LittleDeskEnergy is simple.

For some individuals, all they need is a cleared desktop surface to work on. Those who are complacent with less-than-average office vibes are okay with their #LittleDeskEnergy - and that’s fine. 

But you? You're no average desktop user. You're a determined go-getter. You've got #BigDeskEnergy.

Those with big desk energy are self-starters who actively try to upgrade their home office with essentials that will help boost concentration and or enhance the room ambiance. They're excited to keep up with professional productivity tools, technology, and the latest trends in office ergonomics. 

Those with #BigDeskEnergy want to work harder, faster, stronger, smarter.

How do you know if you have big desk energy?

Some initial things to consider: Does your desk have an adjustable height? Do you have a pull-out keyboard tray? How does your workstation compare to your colleagues, family and friends’? What would you Marie-Kondo away from your home office? Have you looked into anti-fatigue mats or other home office accessories to help you get more done, more comfortably? 

Having #BDE doesn't mean you have to splurge on office accessories.

As a matter of fact, preparation and organization are key to helping you create a productive workspace. Do you ever stop and wonder: is my desk too high or too low? Is my desk too tall, or too small? What is the best desk height or size? Is my desk optimized for maximum productivity?  

Nothing says you’re on the ball like a neat and sleek workspace, and EFFYDESK is here to help you unveil and embrace your Big Desk Energy.
