If you would like to be efficient while working from home, of course, you need tools that will make it a lot easier for you to meet deadlines on turning the deliverables. Here are the top home office productivity tools that I can't live without:

1. PC with Internet Connection

Of course, if you are an online entrepreneur, you simply can't exist without a computer with a reliable broadband Internet connection, an online conferencing software and some other important applications. I am a Windows fan although I find Mac sleek, too. Which do you use? Mac or Windows? Why?

2. Handy Calculator

I am no accountant but invoices and the eternal dollar rate fluctuation made me become bestfriends with my Casio calculator.

3. Whiteboard

I love project management software like Backpack and Zoho. But for tasks that I would rather not monitor online, my trusty whiteboard never fails me. Also, the progress with each of the simpler tasks that I accomplish is easier to track if they are written on the whiteboard.

4. Corkboard

Seeing bills pile up is one of my Motivators to work harder. I always pin these bills on the corkboard where I can easily see them so that I can focus on making money in stead of dilly-dallying because bills have to be paid.

5. Timer

A few minutes of answering emails and a few minutes of reading blog feeds and a few minutes of surfing can easily add up and eat your time that you could have spent more productively on your home business tasks. Using a timer to be reminded that I'm spending too much time over non-productive activities help a lot on keeping me focused on what's important.
