I tend to offset expensive purchases with cheap ones. Expensive chair, cheap as hell desk. Expensive monitor, cheap computer. Expensive keyboard, cheap mouse. You can get a really nice workstation if you choose the expensive parts deliberately for the ergonomics. I don’t want to speak for you but you said one or two things that echo with me: by hyper-optimizing my workstation to be the most comfortable place in my house I think I sort of feed a tendency to hide from difficult parts of life by just working too much. I also think you’re onto something about activity, particularly outdoor activity being the best counterweight to that tendency, I just struggle to get an active routine going from a cold start. Usually if I’m active I can keep it that way, but whether it’s C19 lockdown or a death in the family, it’s very easy to get knocked back into that sedentary state. Any of that resonate?
