I've been spending a lot of time in coffee shops lately. My email inbox has exploded these days with all the events and planning I have been doing with many groups of people. Its both energizing and exhausting at the same time.
It helps to get out into the community and be around other people as well. I do some of my best work and writing in coffee shops. There is such a community to coffee shops, if you go to the same ones enough you will start to see the same people, get to know the people that work in them and meet the regulars. The mix of free wifi and coffee helps but coffee shops really are alive.
I love people watching, you witness so much...business meetings, dates, friends catching up and of course those like me. We are on our laptops but also aware of what is going on around us. We were made for community and I have learned we thrive in community whether it is a coffee shop on the corner or a group of friends we meet with every week. Look at the world around you... people with high "wellness" have community in some form...and that community gives them purpose, drive and happiness.
