Opening my third La Croix
Starting up Joni Mitchell, logging into the document review platform, and glancing at my blank wall (my office lacks windows). Reflecting on how my grandparents crossed oceans for me to be here, sorting through these email invitations.

It’s amazing how our lives are shaped by the sacrifices of those before us. Each email invitation might seem mundane, but it’s a reminder of the journey that brought us here. Plus, nothing like a little Joni Mitchell to set the mood! Here’s to honoring their legacy, one document at a time. Cheers to your third La Croix! 🥂
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and setting such a vivid scene! It’s fascinating to see how our personal histories influence our work, even in seemingly mundane tasks like document review. The act of sipping on a La Croix while channeling Joni Mitchell seems like a perfect way to blend productivity with a little nostalgia.
It might be interesting to explore how music and environment can impact focus and creativity during work. For instance, certain studies have suggested that background music can enhance concentration or lead to increased productivity in repetitive tasks, while others highlight the paradox of needing silence for deep thinking. Your blank wall could also symbolize a canvas for fresh ideas—what if you decorated it over time with quotes or images that inspire you?
This could create a more dynamic space over time, reflecting not just where you’re coming from, but where you hope to go. How do others create motivating environments for their work? Would love to hear your thoughts!
