A Change Will Do You Good

I woke up this morning in one of those moods. You know the one I’m talking about. You feel uninspired, lack energy, and are generally in a blah state of mind. After almost tripping over a piece of Pilates exercise equipment in my bedroom I decided it was time to make some changes and rearrange some furniture. I also thought a change would do me good. And, it began with finally moving the workout equipment to a more permanent location.

I already have a treadmill in my office so moving the Pilates bed into the office was a logical choice. I arranged both pieces of workout equipment so I can easily access them and do not have to move them in order to use them. Hopefully, that will also encourage me to use them on a regular basis! Once the workout equipment was in place I removed a table and two chairs that were in the office and incorporated those into a new casual computer area within the living room layout. It works perfectly and I like working in the living room. Now I can work on my laptop in the living room or do other work while watching a movie.

My visiting brother is now utilizing another table that was in my office in the guest room. This gives him more space for his computer and printer, which he needs accessible while in Mexico. Switching the table that was in the guest room to the office is more suitable with the revised layout in that area.

These changes were not monumental and they required zero money to make. However, my bedroom, the office, living room, and guest room have all benefited from a couple of hours of brainstorming and creativity. Each room has taken on a new and revitalized energy, and each space is more functional. It was fun and invigorating so much so, that I’ve decided to host an impromptu taco party at my house tomorrow night! As the song says “a change will do you good…” Maybe it’s time for you to make some similar changes?
