One of the things that I try to do, every month or so, is work at a co-working site.\u00a0 My current favorite is \u00a0Bull City Co-Working.<\/a>\u00a0 The reason I like co-working sites, is that you feel a vibe in the space, of people doing great things.\u00a0 People who come to co-working sites, realize that while we can all work at home nowadays, being around other people is important.\u00a0 Yes you can use Twitter, or instant messaging, or Facebook to “socialize” while you work, but those activities, are still “removed” from actual people.\u00a0 When I look around the room, and see other people hunched over the computer (well, hunched is probably the wrong word…), and hear the background hum of people using a conference room… I am at work.<\/p>\n

You may ask, well, why not just go to a traditional office?\u00a0 I do have one, but that is a\u00a0 cube farm.\u00a0 Cube Farms, do NOT inspire me to be creative or innovative… they are actually the antithesis of inspiring.\u00a0 Cube farms, make me feel like a drone, I feel I should be wearing a green visor and sleeve garters, with a gigantic in box full of forms…”Oh, we loath, the old one… Oh, we loath, the old one…”\u00a0 bring out the flying monkeys my pretty!!!<\/p>\n

I feel like I come up with Innovative ideas, when I can talk to and work with people who have no idea what I am talking about.\u00a0 Or when I can talk with people who have different reference points, but some level of common vision.\u00a0 Co-Working sites, put you in a space with other people who are working on very different things than I am.<\/p>\n

I am sure I will post more about co-working, but I’ve been meaning to post something for a while.\u00a0 Is there a co-working site that you go to?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
