I made a discovery today.
I realise that I can use my time more efficiently if I concentrate!
It's not rocket science if it?
It's easy to 'kick back' when you shouldn't.
It's easy to put off something until it becomes urgent.
It's easy to work only to a level that is 'comfortable'.
But...I achieved a lot today because I made sure that I was distracted as little as possible. Simply, really!
Or is it?
I have a tendency to 'multi-task' when I write. I have music or even audio books or teleconferences going on in the background whilst I work.
Sometimes I find myself 'drifting' between the audio and MY output.
Yet...other times - the audio compliments what I am writing. You see...writing isn't all that difficult (if I can churn out something like this most days - I've proved it!)...and a lot of it comes down to inspiration.
Today I had some Baroque music in the background (with some subliminal commands that I recorded myself 'underneath' it). And...it helped my creativity and concentration.
But that's not always the case...I'll have some pop music going all day long...especially if I need some motivation!
So - really, it's 'horses for courses' where concentration is concerned.
So - if rock music works for you - it works for YOU! It's yet another one of those fallacies where success is concerned.
Remember - "If it ain't broke - don't fix it!"
