Give Your Desktop a Motivational Makeover With These 10 Wallpapers
All of us creative types find our inspiration in different ways. Some people pop out of bed at the crack of dawn practically bursting with ideas. Others come alive at night. Then there are those who thrive with routine and order, while others need chaos and pressure. One thing we share in common — long hours spent in front of a computer screen. So whether you’re a night owl, a master procrastinator or a messy multitasker, we’re guessing that spiffying up your desktop with an aesthetically pleasing motivational message will prove as uplifting as a cup of coffee. These 10 desktop messages are beautifully created by our friends over at Design Milk. Go download them all (they’re free!), and be inspired to do your best work.
