Good Boy, Sit, Staaay

Directly beside my desk at work is a big window that looks out at a park. There are many distractions for me that fill this park; soccer games, balancing acts, and people playing fetch with their dogs. As I've seen, some dogs, they'll run after anything; but some dogs - like me - won't. You can't throw the ball too far because no matter how much fun it is, they just won't chase it.

It's hard to stay productive at writing even though I derive a great deal of satisfaction from it. The best focus I have is when I go to my local coffee shop; there, I'm sitting upright with only paper and a favourite pen. But when I'm at home, it's easy to lose motivation when I'm reclined, trying to write on my lap. I think that truly it's all in my posture moreso than in my head.

This is my current goal: sell my couches, buy a chair and a writing desk. This way, I'm not throwing the ball too far.
