# My 2023 Desk Setup, and What I'm Focusing On

> A quick look at my early-2023 desk setup and what I planned to focus on for the year.

Here's a little preview of how my setup is looking like to start off the year

![Desk setup](https://images.ctfassets.net/pesmhg70nb3a/9hQJtSQuhF0Mn2HCIuacZ/cf202586a72c422caed477b71fe765aa/IMG_5613.JPG)

The layout changed every so slightly, it's still generally the same with the single desk for everything that I do with the sim rig close. Previously it was the other way around but I'm liking this a little bit better.

Besides my ever changing setup, I want to spend more time building. I've got a pile of side project ideas that never make it past a prototype, and I'd like to actually ship them even if they're only ever used by me. I want to keep making content around the stuff I like, the keyboards, the sim racing, the desk, rather than chasing whatever's trending. And I want the setup to serve all of that instead of becoming a project in its own right that I tinker with instead of getting real work done.

That's the plan. A clean spot to work from, a few things I actually want to build, and a year of pointing the camera at the things I'm already excited about.
