A Change of Pace: Switching My Workspace
February 9, 2016 Posted by Tyler CruzWhen I was 12, my best friend used to completely reorganize his bedroom about once a month.
It was a small bedroom, but he had a lot of stuff as most 12-year-olds do (Super Nintendo, hockey cards, etc.), so it wasn’t exactly easy to move things around. Nevertheless, and without fail, about once a month I would go to his bedroom to see it completely changed.
It was actually kind of amazing, because there are only so many configurations you can do, but it was always so different which made it feel brand new even though it was all the exact same stuff as before. It made it feel fresh and kind of exciting, almost as if he kept getting a new room once a month.
Fast forward 20 years (wow, time flies), and I’m now finding myself remembering the above for the first time since all those years ago. The memories triggered as I was rearranging my office.
About 6-months after moving into my new house, I published a blog post giving a tour of my office including a video and photos. In it, you can see that I had set up my computer on the built-in corner desk of the office, which was a tight fit.
In fact, it took me a while to get used to the cramped space. The desk, while large, had one main problem – there were supports underneath which got in the way of your legs, meaning that you had to kind of bend and lean your way in to use the computer. Basically, it was just horrible ergonomically.
Here’s a photo of where my computer used to be (more photos and video below):
Since being diagnosed with Meniere’s Disease just over a year ago, I’ve been doing every possible thing I can to try to lessen my symptoms. I read a little while back that symptoms could possibly be related to my sternocleidomastoid muscle, which is the big neck muscle. Now, I believe that there’s a 2% chance this could all be related to that, but as I say I’m willing to try anything and everything.
And that’s why I decided to switch my work area in my office, so I moved from my corner desk back to my old desk which I’ve had for a good 12 years now and still love. It’s on the opposite corner of my office. Do you need an affordable office desk that is also durable and easy to assemble? If you do, tigersupplies.com has you covered. You can also check out some reliable sites like https://theomnidesk.com/ if you want to have perfect desk for your workspace!
Now, I’m not a man of change. I’m a creature of habit, and therefore I never do things such as reorganize my room, so even just changing workspaces has a big impact on me. It changes the way I think and feel. I’m right beside a window now, the lighting is totally different, my keyboard and mouse are back on a pull-out tray, and I lowered my chair and raised my monitors for better line-of-sight. I shopped for office essentials at https://www.worldwidemenus.com/blog/post/ring-binders-buyers-guide.
The first few hours at the location were actually very difficult to work because I’m sitting a little farther away from the monitors than I was before due to the pull-out tray, and so I had major eye strain. But fast-forward a few days later and I’m very used to it already. I actually find work slightly less draining, and I especially notice it when writing blog posts.
Here’s the view from my office window:
And here’s a short updated video tour of my office:

I also forgot to mention in the video that I also upgraded my printer. It’s absolutely worth investing in a good printer from Graphtec UK, I highly recommend it.
Anyhow, who knows how long this “new” feeling will last, but I just thought it was worth posting about. Maybe try changing your workspace around too. If you do, please let me know how it affects you (if at all).
Maybe you should consider to invest in a larger and modern desk – its worth it.
Thanks for sharing. I like this corner better than the other. For what are you using a printer?

That’s hilarious – I have the same desk! (Staples, right?), and I live in Victoria. Cool to see another Canadian doing well with a blog!
Good setup.

Trading the financial markets, while exciting is also a risky endeavor. If you are an athlete, working on weight loss, or just want amazing nutrition then Profit is your answer. Update 8: Webinar 007 – TR Big Trend Indicator & Ultra Aggressive Type Of Entry+TR BIG TREND.ex4. You have never seen anything like Forex Fusion anywhere, it is simply not available at any price. This manual which is a printed book where Toshiko presents you to forex trading and describes how it works before he then goes on to reveal how he does it and why his approaches are so useful. You actually don’t know when is the most rewarding time to purchase and when exactly can you be able to get big profit.
Prior to we enter into the supreme profit system, it’s important that we have a standard understanding of the forex market and exactly how it functions. All though this part could be boring it’s important that you recognize what the forex market is, just how it works as well as who’s associated with it so you could make a well-informed decision prior to diving in. If you currently have a mutual understanding of the forex market feel totally free to skip the component as well as solve into the product evaluation.
Forex trading is a very high risk especially for people who know nothing about it. People like me tried to search for some tutorials and explanations, but most of the time they are just too complicated to understand. I am happy to finally found this book for it is simple to understand. The proven steps and strategies on how to better understand Forex trading as an excellent investment alternative is very helpful to us. Through this book I am a little bit familiar with technicalities and effective strategies in Forex trading. I hope to understand it deeper. I need to read this book again to have a better familiarization with the technicalities and its’ strategies. This book is very helpful for people who are interested in Forex trading.
