Your Office Inspiration - Increase your mood and productivity!
Your Office Inspiration
Think about it. How many hours per day do you spend in your
office whether at home or at work? 8 hours on average maybe? Now
think about how much time you've taken time to really assess
what your office is like. Is it happy? Bright? Cheerful?
Inspirational? If you need to be creative at work, your office
decor can either greatly hinder or help you, depending on what
you choose to do. Studies have shown that such a simple thing as
a new paint job in a fresh, bright color can improve work
productivity by 20%!
As well, horizantal lines tend to add a feeling of tranquility
while vertical lines tend to exude power and strength. Diagonal
lines promote motion and forward thinking. You can create these
lines by painting them in or incorporating them into your
office. Crowne molding can be put in at waist height around the
room as a vertical line and tall, skinny plants, lamps, and even
curtains can create vertical lines. Depending on you and your
goals at your office, such simple changes could increase your
productivity and lower your stress levels.
One of the best things you can do is simply install an art print
on your wall. Many people get inspired by simply gazing at a
particular art piece or motivational print. When depressed,
having something familiar to look at right at your office can
inspire you to go that extra distance. Some people like famous
artwork such as Picasso or Leonardo, others enjoy motivational
posters or prints, still others enjoy looking at a portrait of
wildlife, or nature, or of a tropical island. One example of a
motivational art piece is a vigorous mountain climber at the top
of a huge mountain. Underneath is the caption: "He who is not
courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in
life." There are a wide variety of prints available online that
can be shipped right to your door.
Just a few simple changes to the office you spend so long in can
make you more productive while inspiring you to greater heights.
