This is exactly how I feel about it, thanks for clarifying!
I'm in a very similar situation, life is busy. Working at a computer doesn't feel like it should constrain me to a boring office, I could be in nature enjoying the fresh air, thinking about a problem and test out a solution right there.
When my dog was around, he'd have had the time of his life if my office was truly mobile!
Yeah. Also, when I'm doing thinking work, I'm definitely more productive when I'm on my feet and in the fresh air.
There's wisdom to the idea of not mixing business and pleasure, and maintaining work/life boundaries. But I don't think that the principle is meant to imply that a joyless working environment is the secret to a happy life.
