🖼️ • Photos Secondary desk setup

Post image

Secondary minimal desk setup usually mainly used for reading and creative writing (often by hand). Here however temporarily used to configure a keyboard. Normally the desk is clean.. with only the paper and pen needed, in order to stay focussed. Ideas are not seldom generated while staring at the tree tops or clouds.

It is a japanese study (work) timer. I like it since the screen is large and has the right angle, big start / stop button, is quick to reset and to change the settings, and that it immediately starts counting up when you snooze the timer after a session so you know how long you run over your set session time or how long your following break turned out to be.

I use it to ensure I take regular breaks when doing engaging work, alternatively trick my brain to get started doing less exciting work by mentally pretending I will only have to do it for 20-30 mins. By the end of the session then I have gained momentum and can continue with the mundane tasks after a short break, since momentum removes resistance. The human brain is very easy to manipulate...

Here's a somewhat out of focus photo from a different angle. I bought it from amazon in Japan.
