swestrupI'm currently just sitting in my newly clean office, relaxing. This office hasn't been either a very productive or a very relaxing place for some time. I need a clean and tidy office in which to think and do real work and, when I actually have a contract or telecommuting job, I keep the place tidy and I find I can be very productive here. In the interim I tend to let half-finished projects pile up with the result that the place became somewhere where I didn't want to work and where it was hard to finish any of the projects taking up space because there was no space to work.
The main reason the office got cleaned up was that I desperately needed to find my misplaced passport that I (mistakenly) thought would most likely be in here. The second reason, in the back of my mind, was that I may very well end up returning before the actual end of my contract and end up doing telecommuting work from here. In that case, it would be most efficient for me to return to an already clean and ready-to-go office so that there would be a minimal break in my work flow.
Whatever the reason, I find it startling how much more calm I feel when I'm in here now. Not having huge half-finished projects staring at me surely has something to do with that. In any case I am going to just sit here and enjoy it a bit. My life has been far too full of clutter, stress and anxiety lately and I'll gladly take a break from that.
I do have one or two things that I need to get done today, but they are fairly minor amounts of work, and should not take me long. So, for right now, I'm just gonna sit back and relax. I need it.
