I can work either from home or from my office. My office is fine but I'm usually more productive in the comfort of my home because I'm less likely to be distracted. An other good thing is that I have more options if I want to take a break. I can pick up the guitar for 10 minutes, enjoy the sun outside, relax on the bed and so on... better than browsing the web where you don't even leave your desk.

This is definitely different for each individual. For me, I'm more likely to be distracted at home.

See above, re: distractions.

Distractions exist everywhere. For me, at least, there is tangible benefit to throwing frisbee for 10 minutes vs. browsing reddit for ten minutes. I feel more clear-headed and productive after frisbee or doing my laundry. I don't get much out of surfing the web while bored in my office.

Unfortunately, no one lets me bring a frisbee into the office.
