Lurking at my desk

Tips and trick to stay focus as your work.

I am a big fan of the creative set up. I do think that keeping small trinkets and drawings around your work space help  lot with keeping your creativity running. I thought I'd share some here today.
 

Plants - Green is a great way to keep myself relaxed and somehow focused.
Therefore I have a personal small garden around my working space.
 

Lino - This little crow and cute Squirrel are two engraving I made during my free time.
Just for myself and my own pleasure. They help me to keep in sight that pleasure and free-time is NOT a luxury, but and necessity to feel balanced and keep being creative.
 

The Placebo Glasses - As a young studying adult I had a VERY hard time to keep focus for a long time. The glasses somehow turned into a placebo tool: They have no glass but as soon as I put them atop my nose I suddenly feel much more efficient at staying focus. It works for me so why should I stop myself from looking silly when I'm working alone at my desk?
 

Various trinkets - Such as a toy squirrel from my childhood.
An Infinity cube from a Rembrandt exhibition I saw as a kid and which left me a HUGE impression
A mermaid glass from a friend or just a cute IKEA cardboard drawer shelf with silly canine drawing.
Linked to memories of good time, or just inspiring in themselves, all those things help me when I loose focus and start gazing away.
