When it is too quiet, you can turn up the volume.

• You may just want some background noise.
  • Now I can focus.
• You may not be able to hear them…because yesterday the person was speaking too loudly.
  • Now I can hear you.
• You may be used to working in a noisier environment, home office or in the city.
  • Now it doesn’t seem oddly still.

No matter what the case, you are in control – turn on the music, jack up the sound, or get some more people to join you. Turn up the volume and maybe just go somewhere else that has enough buzz to keep you in the right headspace. Working in sound-canceling headphones, alone from home or in a sound-proof room can be just a little too quiet especially in contrast to the chaos you’re used to already.
