Does anyone else study way better in random places than at their actual desk

I have a perfectly fine desk setup at home, good chair, second monitor, everything where it should be, and I almost never get anything done there. But if I take my laptop to a random cafe or sit on the floor of the library for some reason my focus is completely different.

I've been trying to figure out why this is and the best explanation I have is that at my desk my brain knows there are a hundred other things I could be doing, games, youtube, just lying down, whatever. But in a public place those options don't really exist so I just work. Last semester I wrote most of my papers in a 24 hour McDonalds near campus at like 11pm and honestly some of them were the best writing I did all year.

I've started treating location like part of my study routine now. If I have something genuinely important I don't even try to do it at home anymore. I just pack up and go somewhere slightly inconvinient to get to, which also means I'm less likely to leave early. Switching locations when I get stuck on something also helps more than I expected, even just moving from one floor of the library to another kind of resets something in my brain.

Curious if this is just me or if other people have figured out their weird productive spots too.
