Frustrated working on a computer all day?
ASK KATHRYN
Q: Kathryn, I’m an entrepreneur who quit my boring job in the corporate world only 10 months ago. The issues I’m having with technology, passwords, updates, viruses and social media take up all day! I don’t have an IT GUY at home to help. I’m thinking of punching out my PC and going back to work. Can feng shui help me?
A: You do sound frustrated. I hear you. Working alone without full-time IT support can be frustrating!
Should you punch out your computer? ~ No.
- But, can you? ~Absolutely! But first, back it up.
Surely, it is possible to have a bad day, and stress can certainly push your limits. People don’t like to talk about it much, particularity if they are in a business to promote peace, love and harmony. But, it does happen!
These past few weeks have been the most frustrating: dampness in the evenings, moon retrograde and high temps mid-day. Perhaps better planning is required!
Vitamin D deficiency is high in the northern parts of North America year ’round; and I’m not making this up!
I‘m not sure what type of business you are in. If you are heading down the road to frustration and poor decisions, take a look at your Helpful People Area; just inside the front door to your immediate right.
Can you find an IT GUY that can problem-solve for you?
To revive your clarity of thought, you can paint this Helpful People Area a very sober white or soft grey, for clarity. (I used a soft grey-blue for my personal home)
Decorate your working space with a non-distracting colour as mentioned and use ovals or circular items for decor; such as rounded brass pots or an oval mirror and other metals.
‘Round things’ soften all the ‘square things’ that are present in our harsh workspaces.
This is also a great place to display any deities or religious symbols that resonate with you. If you have mentors, or favorite people to ‘go to’ when you need then, acknowledge them in this area.
A fine fragrance of eucalyptus, tea tree, or thyme can be fabulous for clearing mental energy. Or, if you are into crystals, some polished rocks are suited for this task: agate, amber, jade and opal.
Consider taking a stretch break or a long walk when you are frustrated with your computer.
If you still want to hit something, perhaps a cheaper way to let off steam would be to run the vacuum around the house. It makes a lot of noise and can suck up all kinds of stuff. Just saying…
Call me if you’d like to talk further.
All the best,
Kathryn
