Arrange Your Books
Your personal office is the ideal location for your library. Keep all your educational books, literature, self-help and philosophy books as well as encyclopedias enclosed in a bookcase. Place your books in an accessible manner at the front of the shelves.
Boost The Earth Element

Crystals are the ultimate representation of the Earth element. Place or hang them in a way that would allow them to reflect the light from their edges.
Diplomas, Awards, Trophies
