Week 6
Bright greetings to you all. I am Michele Hinchey and I'm so honored to bring you this Motivational Monday post. As we head into our sixth week of 2022, this is a great opportunity to think about our workspaces and how they impact our creative flow.
This past weekend I began a rearranging and reorganization of my own workspace that was long over due. Previously my space was increasingly cramped with many of my supplies being difficult to access when desired. It can also be very dark at various times of the year and left little room for personal decorating. These issues compounded and began to stifle my personal creative flow. I was regularly distracted by the chaos within my workspace. While I have not completed the process, a large portion was done. This partial change alone has made a resounding difference. My space feels more open and supplies are easily accessible now. Next we will install a light fixture for my work desk area to drive out the dark. The smaller things will come over the next week or so, but it already feels so much better to be in.
All this being said, how does your workspace impact your flow? Is there anything you can do to improve it? Even something as simple as putting up a photo, adding music while you work or opening a window can make a substantial difference. Make sure your workspace works for you not against you.
Remember that everyone's workspa will be different, because we are all different people. What works for me may not be at all what works for you. Also what works in one space may not work in a brand new one (if you relocate for any reason).
Lets get inspired and motivated! Rest well and let those creative vibes flow. Never forget; you are amazing!
