Writer's Productivity Desk Setup Tour 2021 | Philippines Work from Home

In this channel's first video, we go over the specific tools and tech that I use on my desk that I need for my daily workload. Productivity is a very important aspect of my life given that I wear multiple hats being a writer, entrepreneur, podcaster, and now, KZbinr in the Philippines. This means that I need as many tools as possible to help me get the job done and to stay productive. Through this desk setup tour, we go over all of the essentials of my workspace and how I use each tool to help me with my daily tasks.
More than just task management and proper scheduling, productivity is also about environmental design. It's very important that we pay closer attention to our working environment. The way that your workspace is constructed can have a dramatic impact on the level of focus, creativity, and energy that you pour into your work. The reason that I'm able to juggle as many things that I do has a lot to do with the fact that I have a workstation that allows me to do so.

I'm only starting to realize the importance of investing in your own workspace. I'm planning out my own desk setup, so this was super insightful. Congrats on your first full video Jet!! The budol is strong with this video 😤💸

[@jetluga]

Thank yooou. I'm genuinely excited to see what you come up with. Charm showed me a video of your space and it looks like you have a lot to work with!

[@legby]

"Functionality means everything I have must serve a function" is the definition of minimalism (in my opinion). The idea of minimalism is to have as many things you need if you get value from, rather than arbitrarily have few items for the sake of it. Overall, great video!

[@ellapedroza803]

Right after I clean my workstation, I saw this video. I like all the details you put in this video. Very Helpful!

[@Breezee80]

Hi, I just want to say great video you made here. I like how you make your desk just minimal enough with functionality. I've been watching desk setup vids lately and yours is one more to help me plan for my future setup

[@charimagsino9454]

Great video Jet. We appreciate your wise choices on your WFH equipment.

[@SaadonAksah]

A nice tour! 👍

[@RazyHalil]

finally a desk setup for a writer from a writer ..which is a really really writer.. haha. nice setup.. same goes with a writer from malaysia. with the pandemic, and working from home, a great setup sure can boost the productivity and also the creativity. all the best!!!

[@adpgxsoftware]

I'm always on the lookout for those setups that uses that $30 foldable table. Great job Jet! Now time for wire management :)

Just started paying attention to my work/gaming desk just recently and I must say you've got a slick budget work setup! I'll be copying the lighting setup pretty soon. Thanks for the idea!

[@jetluga]

Excited for you!

[@belgen]

This setup looks sleek, but only when you keep it clean. From my experience, if you're a messy person like me, you need at least a 2x sized table to stay organized. Plus a separate table to put printer, scanner, laptop/pc, sh*t, etc. I am also sure, this setup had its worse days that we don't see in this staged video. The key to keeping your desk clean and organized is to have fewer things on it.

[@ParthaAquatics]

Quite an inspiring and budgeted desk setup. And inspiring video. Good luck buddy! Love from _...PA_ 💙

[@kayelmarcelo9064]

Came from Charm's channel and was not at all disappointed. This is a very well-thought of video. You must've put a lot work for this one and I commend you for it. Your b-rolls are just as nice too. I love the clean setup and the rationale behind each item--not to mention you kept it realistic by sticking to what you already own (compared to if you waited for your 'ideal' setup. Awesome first video!

[@jetluga]

Thanks so much for your nice words!

[@harrydizon6287]

Got the sense that you’re a great writer when I was watching one of Charm’s vlogs, but damn, 10k words in day??!! Desk setup may not be a flex, but that one’s definitely a big 💪🏿!! Hoping to watch more videos from you! 🙌🏿

[@jetluga]

Thanks for the kind words, Harry! My next video will actually talk about how I'm able to write that much every day 😅 hope to see you around!

[@harrydizon6287]

@@jetluga planning to get a Logitech MX Master 3 also early next year, but do you think that the Rapoo MT550 would be good for now? Will pair it with a MacBook if ever 😅

[@chiizuu752]

@@harrydizon6287 Thinking of getting the MT550 OR 750 but I'm not sure how good the performance of the sensor is since I'm used to ones from gaming mice. Hopefully it's responsive.

[@mariah4197]

For the mouse, you can opt to a Rapoo MT750 which is a dupe of the MX Master 2S and just around 1k. It works almost the same like rechargeable via USB, can connect to multiple devices, horizontal wheel and ergonomic shape.

[@erostuazon5835]

I saw your setup at Matthew's Best Laptop Setup. Yours is my favorite.

[@jetluga]

Thanks!

[@Svengalish0000]

great desk set up! your room could use a nice face lift with some korean combi blinds, for a backdrop you can invest in one of those pull down ceiling mounted green screen

10k words per day? Incredible. I can only do 3k words/day max. Thanks for sharing.

[@jetluga]

With more practice, you can write more words with better quality!

[@Cameruption]

Man for me writing 3k words a day is a good day. 10k sounds like burnout levels to me haha. Could be insightful knowing how you're able to maximize your focus and productivity when writing/working.

[@jetluga]

My next video will actually talk about my focus techniques for writing as much as I do!

[@scarbalatero2194]

Awesome desk set up Jet! Love the simplicity with a touch of aesthetic. I'm also planning to buy an office chair coz just like you, my back is no longer my friend. Lol and also, i would want to minimize my searching time by checking out reviews over the net, good thing i came across your vid in the r2a page. You bought it online or within Cebu lang? If within Cebu, mind share where can I find the same chair?

[@jetluga]

Hi! thanks so much for your kind words. I bought mine via Lazada lang and it was delivered within a week or so. I've linked to the product in my description box. We need to take care of our backs 🤣

[@ThePaulKM]

Great video. In regards to your desk setup, I like the asthetic, but here is what I would change when it comes to the tech options: Monitor: Dell S2721QS Speakers: Mackie XR624 Headphones: Audeze Mobius Wireless Earbuds: Master & Dynamic MW08 Microphone: Blue Yeti Webcam: Razer Kiyo Pro Mouse: Microsoft Bluetooth ergonomic Mouse Keyboard: Das Keyboard 4 Professional

[@chiizuu752]

Speakers: Only 1 stock available in Amazon and it's $500 😭 Headphones: Too expensive TWS: Too expensive, I could find better ones for way cheaper Mic: Overpriced whether you buy in the PH or Amazon. The AT is more than enough. Webcam: Questionable Mouse: Microsoft mice fell off, no one even buys that, just get an MX Master 2S or similar shape. Keyboard: Idk how old you are but I can assure you that no one owns a 2000s keyboard in 2022. I mean look at it, it's from the 2000s I might as well just make a custom keyboard or mod the Keychron.

[@adamlopez3514]

great setup!! suggestion for Mx master alternative! VicTsing MT750 or Rapoo Pioneer Mouse

[@jetluga]

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll look into those but my heart is aching for the MX3 for a while now haha

[@daywhy8629]

Minimalism feels really misunderstood. I really wish more people used minimalism as a tool rather than an aesthetic. Many minimalists would agree with your workspace goals, since removing the excess and selectively buying new items allows you to define purpose in the items that you use. Intentional purpose is a goal many functional minimalists aim for, whereas aesthetic minimalists seem to aim for the clean look of having as little as possible.

[@jetluga]

I agree! I feel like having less tools on a workstation just for the sake of a "minimalist" aesthetic is not sustainable.

[@tamboyistheman]

Nice desk set up, but the speakers sitting bare on your table isn't good for its sound output You'll get a better sound if you place your speakers on a foam or a mount. Best set up would be to raise your speaker to ear level.

[@jetluga]

Hello! Depends on the brand of your laptop. For my Dell, I had to go to my BIOS and adjust the boot settings. Maybe you can check the BIOS of your laptop and see if it has that option 😊

[@sirsober1718]

Sir Jet, how do i set up my Laptop to power on without opening it? do i need a dock with thunderbolt? I cant find any tutorial for it.

Hello. I think it's only a feature on Dell laptops that you can enable via the BIOS. If your laptop isn't Dell, please check your laptop's BIOS if it has a similar feature.
