View

Transitioning from a PC to a MAC can make a head spin.  Where’s this - where’s that?  Why did they not do it this way?  After stopping to take a deep breath and exhaling, it appeared that the new mega screen was blocking my view, causing greater stress. 

My frustration didn’t have an outward view.  I have the luxury of working in an upper loft that has a view of the outdoors, which happens to be a lake.  The pirouettes of thinking about a smaller screen, flipping the screen to portrait,  so I can view (the) landscape, created yet another mind spinning movement.  

A room with a view is not a cliché.  Especially in the setting of a home office, it offers a balance that offers a respite in the midst of a chaotic mind spin.  It offers a break from the page, by looking beyond the screen;  it is one of the forgotten simple ideas to help balance one’s mind throughout the day and actually accomplish what you set out to do!
