One day, calling me to see if I had found my feet in my new job, my employer told me about his day:

“You know, today I had an appointment with an agency client in Marseille (i.e a city in France). I took my bike and climbed up the hills to meet him in Cassis on the other side. So that made my day of sport. “

“Like me, nothing prevents you from taking breaks as you like. It’s not just the work you do in front of your computer. It’s about finding time to step back. Otherwise you lose the sense of what you’re doing.”

His thoughts confirmed what I had been thinking about working remotely. When working at home, you need to find a balance between intense and undisturbed work and moments of break and relaxation.

But, further on, you need to reconsider your ordinary work process, especially the importance of more ambient and open awareness.
