Office equipment.

Last Sunday, I was coming out of my office and my husband asked, were you doing work?

Only because I said that I'd probably do some work that day. He was just being curious.

And I said,

No, just doing yoga.

Which actually enables work to happen.

So ... yes, I guess I was working.

Huh.

Enables work to happen.

Like a desk and a chair and a computer and software and internet access.

Like office equipment (except I don't like the word 'equipment. I don't even like the word 'work').

Somehow, for me, that's a shift.

It's different from saying, yoga/meditation/Dance of Shiva/taking a walk/getting enough sleep/fill in the blank makes everything better.

That's still true.

But this shift says, this thing is absolutely necessary.

As necessary as my laptop.

Sure, I could function without a computer for a couple of days, but that's it. I can't run my business without it.

It's not optional.

So, now I'm looking at, what else is not negotiable?
