The right environment
Creating the right environment for your surroundings when you work is a great way to stay healthy and productive, but do you also give the same amount of thought to your apps and tools?

so hi is Christmas week I thought I'd
make a video today obviously and this
weekend I was thinking about working
environments meaning you know we put a
lot of thought into the lighting the
chair the table the the environment of
plants and so on and so forth
but I don't think a lot of people think
about their tools in the same way
especially when it comes down to
computers I mean if you're a plumber or
a carpenter or mechanic in a garage you
put a lot of thought and effort into
picking the right tool so when a project
comes in you can pick the right tool get
on with it so it's not annoying you so
imagine having a imagine a carpenter
having a really crappy hammer and he's
using it just getting annoyed and more
and more with it firstly it would just
go out and buy another hammer but some
people just keep using the same hammer
the same tool all the time and I find
that especially with computers so when
I'm helping guiding and coaching my
clients I do see this quite a lot they
use a tool because they've always used
it which is the usual thing although
they like the way the program is but
it's not it's often not the best tool
that they're using so when I move them
over to another tool for a week or so
they get annoyed I mean that's just my
job i annoy people with helping them
after that they realized that they're
saving a lot more time and they'd be
actually becoming a bit more productive
in the way they work with the new app so
the idea of having the right environment
whether it's you know physical
environment as I said like chairs and so
on and so forth
your tool set your environment on your
computer is actually quite important so
when you're working with it you're not
getting annoyed too much with it anyway
