Activity 4

I LIKE
Being in a silent coffee shop offers a unique ambiance that resonates deeply with me for several
reasons.
Firstly, silence in a coffee shop allows for introspection and reflection. Amidst the tranquility, I
find a space to ponder, to sort through thoughts, and to contemplate ideas without the distraction
of external noise. It's a sanctuary where I can delve into the depths of my mind and explore the
intricacies of my thoughts without interruption.
Secondly, silence fosters a sense of mindfulness. In a world filled with constant stimulation and
noise, a silent coffee shop provides a rare opportunity to fully immerse oneself in the present
moment. The absence of distractions encourages me to appreciate the subtleties of my
surroundings the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, the gentle rustle of turning pages, the play of
light filtering through the windows.
I HATE
The office environment can often feel monotonous, with the same routine day in and day out.
The repetitive nature of tasks and the lack of variety can lead to boredom and a sense of
stagnation.
Many office jobs require employees to adhere to strict schedules and routines, leaving little room
for flexibility or autonomy in how they manage their time. This lack of flexibility can be stifling
for individuals who thrive in more dynamic and adaptable work environments.
Offices can sometimes be breeding grounds for office politics, competition, and power struggles.
Navigating interpersonal dynamics and office hierarchies can be draining and distracting,
detracting from the focus on actual work.
