This work environment (the internet) can be a very distracting place. As we know, there are so many things to do and places to go. When we want to do a task of some sort, very often we find ourselves doing some thing totally unrelated... it's unbelievable...!!! We end up asking ourselves, "How did I get here", or "What was it I wanted to do, again"?
These are a few things I try to do to keep myself on task when I'm working here at WA.
Try working at your computer for an hour, then going outside or doing something else more active... then coming back for another hour, 45 minutes, however long your goal is...
Moving around is good...it stimulates thoughts and ideas... perhaps even inspiration...!!! It's good for your body too after sitting for a while.
The other thing (my big problem) is not being distracted by the internet itself... checking emails, Facebook, reading stories once we're sitting in front our computers can be VERY distracting...We just have to be like a horse with blinders on and focus on our path or present goal...
Another thought is to allow ourselves some internet recreation time where we have no work goals...Set a timer... We just tell ourselves that for this next half-hour or hour, I'm surfin' the net, baby... Ain't doing nothin' but watching these crazy pet videos people are sending me or posting on FB, or whatever it is we like to do.
These are a few things that help me be a Big Chief Lotsafocus...!!!
