I keep telling myself, “mind over matter,” and perhaps in some yogic, theoretical way it’s possible, but our immediate surroundings make a difference in the way we feel about and act in life.
Right now, I spend a significant portion of my work day in a very drab, oppressive, anti-creative environment. And dammit, it brings me down. Some days I’m okay. I come in with high energy and ready to roar. Most days…well I have no reason to make excuses or point blame.
The town we live is chilly, rainy, windy, sleepy and low energy. It’s affects us. Atmosphere makes a difference. Which is why need to change it.
Good personal energy needs to be balanced with awesome atmosphere.
