Ever played video games at work? Or just have the urge to leave the office and play ball/cricket out in the yard below? Or even went for a walk at the park and just wanted to enjoy the swings and slides? Congratulations, you are a certified kid trapped within an adult human body, Happy Children’s Day! You may not have the same stamina as your childhood but your heart still beats for those Power Ranger/Barbie Doll toys kept somewhere in your house.
This one is dedicated to the kid within us all. We may all seem serious and poised on the surface while attending a meeting but deep down, we sometimes wonder what’s been packed for lunch today. Yep, that again is a thing we started doing as kids. Zoning out in the middle of school and thinking about what food has mumma made today, hoping it’s your favorite. Personally, we feel it is necessary to keep the kid within us alive, only then it is possible to achieve your desired goals. You know they say “Be crazy enough to chase after what you want” Well,, you just gotta allow yourself to be a kid every now and then. Allow yourself to be curious and stupid like you once were, it’s freeing. It’s scientifically proven that being childlike helps us to be more creative, more imaginative, more innovative and open to worlds of possibilities. It’s of great help to view the world through a different set of eyes and mind.
And that’s exactly what we provide at OurDesk, a coworking space in Mumbai. We make sure our members walk a balanced line of being professional all of the time with an impromptu series of senseless jokes here and there. Not all these jokes will make you shudder with laughter but some of them will impact your way of thinking. For instance, How do you tell the difference between a donkey and a zebra? because a zebra is just a black-striped donkey. Here the understanding of the joke is not everything is as it looks like. This wasn't funny but somewhere in your brain this will make space. So, the next time you see a donkey on a road, you’ll think this could be a whitewashed zebra. Hence, developing a different perspective towards things.
Just like the above not-so-hilarious joke which was welcomed well by most of our coworking members, we welcome them and their distinctive yet frivolous side. One can be as flexible as they need at our flexi desk, just as long as it’s harmless. We encourage our members to let loose when times are stressful and do what it takes to outdo the pent-up stress. Even if it’s tomfoolery at its best. If being silly every once a while is good for your all-around health, why not?
At our coworking space in Khar, you can unapologetically be as stupid as you want just not at the cost of disturbing your fellow coworking member. These small and childish whooshes of winds are what help a lot in building community at OurDesk. As mentioned in our previous blogs, creating and maintaining such connections is essentially for one to be comfortable enough to be foolish around you. Having no underlying thoughts or any sort of filter before speaking, just bare thoughts being spoken out loud without the feeling of sounding weird. That’s the kind of atmosphere we strive to foster for our members of OurDesk so that they continue to keep the kid in them alive whilst thriving every day.
