Loading ...Why am I talking about this? Easy. Most of them are funny, and my hope is that by calling attention to them, I’ll actually start doing something different!!

I think it’s safe to say in a corporate office environment most of us don’t spring out of our Herman Miller’s to do toetouches beside our desk. Why? Because Suzie two cubes over will complain about having to see our ass in the air to Jimmy (who she IM’s with all day long.) Then Jimmy tells Bob, and Bob tells Gail and by the time it gets around the office you were bent over doing toe touches AND passed gas.
But we work-from-home freelancers don’t have to deal with these kinds of office politics. So what is the problem?!?! You’re guess is as good as mine - we all know we want to do it… our bodies are saying “do a frikkin jumping jack!” But we don’t.
I do have one tip that has helped me in taking a moment to “breathe” and shake out the ol bones. Smoking crack. Kidding. I find that if I write down every small item to be accomplished in my day that I don’t try to zip thru task after task; fearful I’m going to forget what I need to do next.
Detailed lists are also nice to simply give a feeling of accomplishment. Even if I scratched off “fill your coffee cup” it’s still one more thing that I’ve gotten DONE! 
And guess what happens after I finish my list? Stretching!!!
