Distractions

July 1, 2009 by Giulietta Nardone

I’m almost through the 30 Day Power Blog Challenge. It’s been powerful and challenging. Writing an entry every day proved to be more taxing than I thought it would. Most days I post at least one entry. Others days it’s hard to make the time to write even something short.

It all comes down to commitment. What’s #1 on the priority list. Frankly, distraction can get to the top of my list. Before I know it I’m Googling things I don’t really care about. That’s when I could use a distraction alarm, a device that beeps at me very loudly so I snap back into the present and realize I’ve been on a virtual tangent.

I’ve decided there are two types of distractions. A) fake distractions, like the ones where you find yourself googling a celebrity for some bizarre reason or B) real distractions, like the ones where you hear about say the Slow Food movement from a friend and want to learn more about it.

Perhaps, I can’t have one without the other or maybe distractions serve some kind of innate need. Not sure. How about you? Do you find yourself distracted?
