Working from home can be a drag, especially when you would prefer to work in person with a team. I am an extrovert, and I love being around others, so working from home has been a real struggle for me.

One thing that my therapist has suggested is to make my space into a sanctuary. This has really helped me focus and feel like there is a safe place for me to work and be myself despite social distancing.

Here are 12 tips that I have used to glam up my desk at home so that working from home isn't as tough.

1. A cute planner/calendar

This is the most important item to invest in, especially with the world that can change every five seconds in this crazy pandemic.

2. Essential Oil Diffuser

Essential oils can help you gain more energy, as well as keep calm.

3. Cute Pens

It is always good to have pens on hand in case you need to write a quick note down.

4. Personal Photographs

This will help when you are feeling lonely during this time of social distancing to see pictures of family and friends.

5. Stress Balls

This will help when working from home becomes too much.

6. Motivational Quotes

It's important to have cute canvas quotes with motivational quotes to keep you pumped.

7. Lights

Colorful twinkle lights can not only brighten up a space but make it look more glam as well.

8. Desk Rug

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
